Predicting shoppers’ interest from social interactions using sociometric sensors
In this paper, we explore using sociometric data to study social behaviors of group shoppers.

Using temporal patterns (T-Patterns) to derive stress factors of routine tasks
We describe the use of a statistical technique called T-pattern analysis to derive and characterize the routineness of tasks.

So you know you’re getting the best possible information: a tool that increases Wikipedia credibility
An experiment was conducted to study how credibility judgments about Wikipedia are affected by providing users with an interactive visualization (WikiDashboard) of article and author editing history.

Enzymatic assays for fragment-based screening using enthalpy arrays
In this talk we will discuss the application of enthalpy arrays to confirm and rank fragment hits based on their ligand efficiencies.

TBL-improved non-deterministic segmentation and POS tagging for a Chinese parser
We present an experiment in improving the output of an off-the-shelf module that performs segmentation and tagging, the tokenizer-tagger from Beijing University (PKU).

Scaleable Manufacture of HIV-1 Entry Inhibitor Griffithsin and Validation of Its Safety and Efficacy as a Topical Microbicide Component
We report a manufacturing breakthrough for griffithsin (GRFT), one of the most potent HIV entry inhibitors. Plant-produced GRFT (GRFT-P) was shown as active against HIV at picomolar concentrations, directly virucidal…

Mesomechanical Constitutive Relations for Glass and Ceramic Armor
We describe a model that uses microfailure and fragment flow constitutive data, show how the model links to continuum models, and compare computational results with glass penetration tests.
