The I in Team: Mining Personal Social Interaction Routine with Topic Models from Long-Term Team DataZhang, Y. (author), Olenick, Jeffrey (author), Chang, Chu-Hsiang (author), Kozlowski, Steve W.J. (author), Hung, H.S. (author)Social interaction plays a key role in assessing teamwork and collaboration. It becomes particularly critical in team performance when coupled with isolated, confined, and extreme conditions such as undersea missions. This work investigates how social interactions of individual members in a small team evolve during the course of a long...conference paper 2018

(author)The Androgen Receptor (AR) is the key-driving transcription factor in prostate cancer, tightly controlled by epigenetic regulation. To date, most epigenetic profiling has been performed in cell lines or limited tissue samples. Here, to comprehensively study the epigenetic landscape, we perform RNA-seq with ChIP-seq for AR and histone...journal article 2018

D'Urbino, Michele (author), Chen, C. (author), Chen, Z. (author), Chang, Z.Y. (author), Ponte, Jacco (author), Lippe, Boris (author), Pertijs, M.A.P. (author)This paper presents a power- and area-efficient approach to digitizing the echo signals received by piezoelectric transducer elements, commonly used for ultrasound imaging. This technique utilizes such elements not only as sensors but also as the loop filter of an element-level δσ analog to digital converter (ADC). The receiver chain is thus...journal article 2018

Wang, Haoyu (author), Chang, L. (author), Markine, V.L. (author)Transition zones in railway tracks are locationswith considerable changes in the rail-supporting structure. Typically, they are located near engineering structures, such as bridges, culverts and tunnels. In such locations, severe differential settlements often occur due to the different material properties and structure behavior. Without...journal article 2018

Chang, L. (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author), Hanssen, R.F. (author)Satellite radar interferometry (InSAR) is an emerging technique to monitor the stability and health of line-infrastructure assets, such as railways, dams, and pipelines. However, InSAR is an opportunistic approach as the location and occurrence of its measurements (coherent scatterers) cannot be guaranteed, and the quality of the InSAR...journal article 2018
