Building occupant sensing : occupancy prediction and behavior recognition by Zhu, Qingchang

“…Occupancy levels are the coarse information, but occupants’ behaviors are the fine- grained ones. The occupant behavior recognition problem is further divided into simple motion-related activity recognition with inertial measurements and energy- related sound event recognition. …”

Identification of novel interactions between MicroRNAs and pattern-recognition receptor signalling in dentritic cells by Pichulik, T

“…Recent evidence has suggested that PRR signalling regulates the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs), important post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression, which have been shown to fine-tune innate immune responses.</p> <p>This thesis describes the discovery of miR-650, a novel PRR-responsive miRNA that is down regulated in monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) on PRR stimulation. …”

Preparation and characterization of magnetite ferrofluid for generating current induced by Ahmad, Che Sulaiman

“…The material was crushed with mortar and pestle and sieved to obtain a fine powder. Next, the magnetite milled with oleic acid with different times of 10 hours, 20 hours, 30 hours and 40 hours. …”
