Optimal digital filtering for tremor suppression

Remote manually operated tasks such as those found in teleoperation, virtual reality, or joystick-based computer access, require the generation of an intermediate electrical signal which is transmitted to the controlled subsystem (robot arm, virtual environment, or a cursor in a computer screen). When human movements are distorted, for instance, by tremor, performance can be improved by digitally filtering the intermediate signal before it reaches the controlled device. This paper introduces a novel tremor filtering framework in which digital equalizers are optimally designed through pursuit tracking task experiments. Due to inherent properties of the man-machine system, the design of tremor suppression equalizers presents two serious problems: 1) performance criteria leading to optimizations that minimize mean-squared error are not efficient for tremor elimination and 2) movement signals show ill-conditioned autocorrelation matrices, which often result in useless or unstable solutions. To address these problems, a new performance indicator in the context of tremor is introduced, and the optimal equalizer according to this new criterion is developed. Ill-conditioning of the autocorrelation matrix is overcome using a novel method which we call pulled-optimization. Experiments performed with artificially induced vibrations and a subject with Parkinson's disease show significant improvement in performance. Additional results, along with MATLAB source code of the algorithms, and a customizable demo for PC joysticks, are available on the Internet at http:?tremor-suppression.com.     

Herd and state means for somatic cell count from dairy herd improvement

To determine the impact of reducing the current legal limit of 750,000 cells/ml for somatic cell count (SCC) in US market milk, data were examined from 539,577 herd test days for Dairy Herd Improvement herds on test during 1996 and 1997. Somatic cell scores for individual cows were converted to SCC. The SCC for each cow was weighted by milk yield and used to compute herd mean on test day. The mean for each state was derived by weighting herd test-day SCC by herd test-day milk yield. State means were lowest in the West and highest in the Southeast. The percentage of herd test days with an SCC of >750,000 cells/ml ranged from 0 to 14% across states; the mean was 4%. Only 1% of the herd tests were >750,000 cells/ml on 2 consecutive test days. Mean SCC in the United States was 307,100 cells/ml for 1996 and 313,500 cells/ml for 1997. Mean SCC was lower during October through January (280,000 to 300,000 cells/ml) than during July and August (340,000 cells/ml). Herd size and SCC were negatively related; larger herds had lower SCC. Because records of some cows treated with antibiotics were included in the data, herd SCC means likely were higher than corresponding bulk tank SCC. Most herds had test-day SCC that were substantially below legal bulk tank limits and could have met lower limits (e.g., 500,000 cells/ml).

Bone engineering on the basis of periosteal cells cultured in polymer fleeces

Large bone defects caused by severe trauma, infection or tumor resection are still a major challenge for orthopaedic surgery. The key concept for successful bone regeneration consists of combining the osteoinductive effect of osteogenic cells with a suitable carrier structure to promote osteoblastic differentiation and optimal matrix production. Therefore, periosteal cells cultured in polyglycolic-polylactid acid (PGLA) fleeces were investigated for their osteogenic differentiation and used to repair critical size bone defects in a rabbit model. Periosteal cells were isolated from New Zealand White rabbits and expanded in vitro. Osteogenic differentiation was investigated by analysis of alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin production in vitro depending on culture conditions and passage number. Cells were seeded into PGLA fleeces. After further cultivation, tissue constructs were examined histologically and by immunohistochemistry for cell distribution and osteogenic differentiation. These constructs of defined size were used to repair critical size calvarial defects (group I) in rabbits compared to a defect repair with polymers only (group II) or to untreated defects (group III). Bone healing was evaluated after 4 weeks by radiodensitometry and a special histological scoring system. For early evaluation, radiodensitometry was not sensitive enough to detect differences in calcification. However, on histologic examination the group with cell/fleece constructs revealed intense formation of uncalcified bone. The mean defect closure of the experimental group I was 65%, compared to control groups II and III with 31% and 22%, respectively. The established methods of 3-D-cell culture and ex-vivo transplant assessment proved to be a valuable tool for quality assurance. The results demonstrate that the combination of periosteal cells and polymer fleeces is a tissue engineering approach, which may have clinical applications in various fields of reconstructive surgery.     

Partial replacement of forage with nonforage fiber sources in lactating cow diets. I. Performance and health

Seventy-eight Holsteins were fed for 112 d to evaluate performance and health responses to diets varying in source and concentration of fiber. Three diets based on different carbohydrate feeding strategies were formulated. These diets contained low concentrations of forage and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) (12.6% forage NDF, 19.5% total NDF), adequate NDF and forage (20% forage NDF, 24.8% total NDF), or low forage with additional NDF from cereal byproducts (12.7% forage NDF, 33.4% total NDF). Responses to sodium bicarbonate supplementation (0 or 0.8% of diet DM) were evaluated for each carbohydrate strategy, and bicarbonate improved performance on all diets. Eight cows were used concurrently in a Latin square experiment to evaluate the linearity of milk fat concentration response to increasing concentrations of byproduct NDF in low-forage diets. Considering both trials, cereal byproduct NDF was only 27% as effective as NDF from alfalfa silage in eliciting a milk fat concentration response, which was less than predicted from previous experiments. This difference was not because of the short duration of previous experiments nor because of nonlinearity in the response to byproduct NDF. Low-forage diets fed for 112 d did not result in major health disorders for midlactation cows. However, several indicators suggested that cows fed low-forage, high-NDF diets might be less susceptible to ruminal acidosis than those fed diets containing low forage and low NDF, especially during times of dietary transition. Although the effective fiber value in various feeds is variable and difficult to quantify, the value of byproduct fiber needs to be considered when balancing the carbohydrate fraction of dairy rations.

Waste green sands as reactive media for groundwater contaminated with trichloroethylene (TCE)

Waste green sands are byproducts of the gray iron foundry industry that consist of sand, binding agents, organic carbon, and residual iron particles. Because of their potential sorptive and reactive properties, tests were conducted to determine the feasibility of using waste green sands as a low cost reactive medium for groundwater treatment. Batch and column tests were conducted to determine the reactivity, sorptive characteristics, and transport parameters for trichloroethylene (TCE) solutions in contact with green sands. Normalized rate constants for TCE degradation in the presence of iron particles extracted from green sands were found to be comparable to those for Peerless iron, a common medium used to treat groundwater. Rate constants and partition coefficients obtained from the batch tests were found to be comparable to those from the column tests. Analytical modeling shows that reactive barriers containing green sand potentially can be used to treat contaminated groundwater containing TCE at typical concentrations observed in the field.
