Starting with the observation that offspring of germ-free mice tended on high-fat diets, Kimura et al. investigated how presence microbiota might be protective in (see Perspective by Ferguson). Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) from known suppress insulin signaling reduce fat deposition adipocytes. Further experiments showed SCFAs...

In this paper, we propose a new method for decomposing pattern classification problems based on the class relations among training data. By using method, can divide K-class problem into series of ((2)(K)) two-class problems. These are to discriminate Ci from Cj i=1, ..., K and j = i+1, while existence data belonging other K-2 classes is ignored. If discriminating still hard be learned, further break down it set subproblems as small expect. Since each treated completely separate with proposed...

We demonstrate rapid single-flux-quantum (RSFQ) circuits with reduced energy consumption by lowering the driving voltages and critical currents of Josephson junctions (JJs). At lowered voltages, statically consumed bias resistors (which is dominant in RSFQ circuits) reduced. In addition, we show that when are driven constant dynamic resulting from switching JJs because suppression amplitudes signal voltage pulses, even though speed becomes slower. Utilization miniaturized smaller also leads...
