A novel method to construct 3D electrodes at the sidewall of microfluidic channel

We report a simple, low-cost and novel method for constructing three-dimensional (3D) microelectrodes in microfluidic system by utilizing low melting point metal alloy. Three-dimensional electrodes have unique properties in application of cell lysis, electro-osmosis, electroporation and dielectrophoresis. The fabrication process involves conventional photolithography and sputtering techniques to fabricate planar electrodes, positioning bismuth (Bi) alloy microspheres at the sidewall of PDMS channel, plasma bonding and low temperature annealing to improve electrical connection between metal microspheres and planar electrodes. Compared to other fabrication methods for 3D electrodes, the presented one does not require rigorous experimental conditions, cumbersome processes and expensive equipments. Numerical analysis on electric field distribution with different electrode configurations was presented to verify the unique field distribution of arc-shaped electrodes. The application of 3D electrode configuration with high-conductive alloy microspheres was confirmed by particle manipulation based on dielectrophoresis. The proposed technique offers alternatives to construct 3D electrodes from 2D electrodes. More importantly, the simplicity of the fabrication process provides easy ways to fabricate electrodes fast with arc-shaped geometry at the sidewall of microchannel.     

A method of identifying chronic stress by EEG

There are a lot of studies on chronic stress assessment applying psychology instruments or hormones analysis. However, there are only few studies using electroencephalogram (EEG), which is a non-invasive method providing objective inspection on brain functioning. In this paper, we analyzed overall complexity and spectrum power of certain EEG bands (theta, alpha and beta) collected from two groups of human subjects—high stress versus moderate stress at prefrontal sites (Fp1, Fp2 and Fpz). The results showed that the differences of nonlinear features (C0, LZC, D2, L1 and RE) and linear features (power and alpha asymmetry score) between two groups are significant. C0, LZC and D2 significantly increased in stress group at Fp1 and Fp2, while L1 and RE significantly decreased. And those with chronic stress have higher left prefrontal power. Finally, we suggest that it may be effective to discriminate the high-stress people from moderate-stress people by EEG.

迭代重加权最小二乘支持向量机快速算法研究

迭代重加权(Iteratively Reweighted)方法是提高最小二乘支持向量机(LS-SVM)稳健性的重要手段,但由于涉及到多次加权和重复训练,该方法需要大量运算,无法广泛应用.通过数值推导,获得了求解迭代重加权最小二乘支持向量机(IRLS-SVM)的快速算法,大幅度减少了其运算复杂度.引入了3种经典的加权函数,并在多个仿真数据集和实际数据集上进行实验,证实了IRLS-SVM能获得相当稳健的学习结果,所提出的快速算法也确实能够大幅度减少训练时间.实验结果同时表明,在快速训练算法的框架下,3种不同的权重函数可能要求不同的训练时间.

MapReduce:新型的分布式并行计算编程模型

MapReduce是Google提出的分布式并行计算编程模型,用于大规模数据的并行处理。Ma-pReduce模型受函数式编程语言的启发,将大规模数据处理作业拆分成若干个可独立运行的Map任务,分配到不同的机器上去执行,生成某种格式的中间文件,再由若干个Reduce任务合并这些中间文件获得最后的输出文件。用户在使用MapReduce模型进行大规模数据处理时,可以将主要精力放在如何编写Map和Reduce函数上,其它并行计算中的复杂问题诸如分布式文件系统、工作调度、容错、机器间通信等都交给MapReduce系统处理,在很大程度上降低了整个编程难度。MapReduce日益成为云计算平台的主流编程模型。Apache Hadoop项目提供开源的MapReduce系统还有待进一步完善。
