The matching pursuit (MP) algorithm developed by S. Mallat and Z. Zhang is applied to magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Since matching pursuit is a greedy algorithm to find waveforms which are the best match for an object-signal, the signal can be decomposed with a few iterations. In this paper, we propose an application of the MP algorithm to the MR imaging to reduce imaging time. Inner products of residual signals and selected waveforms in the MP algorithm are derived from the MR signals by excitation of RF pulses which are fourier transforms of selected waveforms. Results from computer simulations demonstrate that the imaging time is reduced by using the MP algorithm and further a progressive reconstruction can be achieved.

A new acylglycosyl Sterol (4) was isolated from the MeOH extract of Quisqualis Fructus together with four known compounds. On the basis of spectroscopic data, their structures were elucidated as clerosterol (1), betulinic acid (2), methylursolate (3), 3-Ο-[6 -Ο-(8Z-octadecenoyl)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl]-clerosterol (4) and $\alpha$-xylofuranosyluracil (5).

Phytochemical investigation of the 80% MeOH extract from the leaves of Hosta longipes resulted in the isolation of sixteen compounds (1 - 16). The structures of the compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic methods to be methyl 10,10-dimethoxydecanoate (1), methyl 10-hydroxy-8E,12Z-octadecadienoate (2), methyl coriolate (3), trans-phytol (4), phytene-1,2-diol (5), phyton (6), (3S,5R,6S,7E,9R)-7-megastigmene-3,6,9-triol (7), (3S,5R,6S,9R)-3,6,9-trihydroxymegastigman-7-ene (8), shikimic acid (9), p-coumaramide (10), trans-N-p-coumaroyltyramine (11), cis-N-coumaroyltyramine (12), tryptophan (13), thymidine (14), adenosine (15), and deoxyadenosine (16). Compound 1 was synthesized, but not yet isolated from natural source, and compounds 2-16 were isolated for the first time from this plant source.

A phytochemical investigation of Allium macrostemon Bunge (Liliaceae) afforded the new pregnane steroidal glycoside, named allimacroside F (1), along with three known glycosides, benzyl-O-${\alpha}-{\text\tiny{L}}$-rhamnopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}6$)-${\beta}-{\text\tiny{D}}$-glucopyranoside (2), phenylethyl-O-${\alpha}-{\text\tiny{L}}$-rhamnopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}6$)-${\beta}-{\text\tiny{D}}$-glucopyranoside (3), (Z)-3-hexenyl-O-${\alpha}-{\text\tiny{L}}$-rhamnopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}6$)-${\beta}-{\text\tiny{D}}$-glucopyranoside (4). The identification and structural elucidation of a new compound (1) was carried out based on spectral data analyses ($^1H-NMR$, $^{13}C-NMR$, $^1H-^1H$ COSY, HSQC, HMBC, and NOESY) and HR-FAB-MS.

The original DANTE sequence and its variations have limitation in excitation profile (a sinc function-like excitation) due to the finite duration of the DANTE pulsetrain. This sinc function-like selection profile excites only a small fraction of the spins in the pixel thereby results in poor signal to noise ratio (only about ${\sim}1%$ of normal MR imaging sequence). Therefore, this poor signal to noise ratio (SNR) has been the main drawback of the original DANTE sequence. To improve the signal to noise ratio, phases of individual RF pulses in the DANTE pulse train were modulated so that more spins in the object were excited ($1{\sim}3$). We have introduced a new FM (Frequency Modulation) DANTE sequence and analyzed the signal intensity and excitation profiles.

The experimental results of visual stimulation with the tailored RF pulse are reported. Tailored RF pulse is used for the susceptibility effect imaging. Around 25% signal change of visual cortex area is detected during photic stimulation. Interestingly, with the tailored RF pulse, the signal intensity of visual cortex is deceased during photic stimulation. It is, however, increased with normal $T_2$ weighted imaging. The comparison between normal $T_2$ weighted imaging and the tailored RF pulse imaging are performed with 4T NMR system and the results with human volunteer are also presented.

In MR functional imaging, it is shown that the signal change during photic activation is composed of two terms, i.e. the inflow effect and the susceptibility effect. Relatively the inflow effect affects the data obtained by CGE on the condition of short $T_E$(15ms) and large $\alpha$(90degree). The susceptibility effect, however, mainly contributes to the data on the condition of large $T_E$(35ms) and small $\alpha$(30degree). In this apper, we will discriminate the susceptibility effect for the intermingled data affected both flow effect and susceptibility effect. Finally susceptibility only functional imaging is proposed by using TRFGE.

The MRAC theory has proved to be one of the most popular algorithms in the field of adaptive control, particularly for practical application to devices such as an hydraulic servosystem of which parameters are unknown or varying during operation. For small sampling period, the discrete time system becomes a nonminimal phase system. The $\delta$-MRAC was introduced to obtain the control performance of nonminimal phase system, because the z-MRAC can not control the plant for small sampling period. In this paper, $\delta$-MRAC is applied to the control of an hydraulic servosystem which is composed of servovalve, hydraulic cylinder and inertia load.

We investigate the sensitivity of symmetry quantification algorithms based on the profile R-factor (R_p) and the normalized cross-correlation (NCC) coefficient (γ). A DM (Digital Micrograph^©) script embedded in the Gatan digital microscopy software is used to develop the symmetry quantification program. Using the Bloch method, a variety of CBED patterns are simulated and used to investigate the sensitivity of symmetry quantification algorithms. The quantification results show that two symmetry quantification coefficients are significantly sensitive to structural changes even for small strain values of < 1%.

The second instar milkweed bugs, Oncopeltus fasciatus were exposed to the residue of 6-methoxy-7-ethoxy-2, 2- dimethylchromene(or 7-ethoxy precocene 11, 7-EP-11) with one, two, or four different kinds of synergist(s) deposited as a residue on 9 cm diameter petri dishes. The anti juvenile hormone analog, 7-EP-I1 yielded a 50% effectiveness concentration at 1.18 wg/cmZ. The concentration of 7-EP-I1 and R020-9747 combined gave 0.084 ~*g/cm', as much 14 times more potent than with 7-EP-I1 alone. Most of the other synergists, including geraniol, 4-chalcone oxide, isosafrole, and piperonyl butoxide however, showed comparatively low level synergism with 1.0-4.3 times, depending upon the combinations of the synergist(s). The obtained results were considered that R020-9747, an analog of benzopyran with similar structure to that of 7-EP-I1 inhibited selectively the insect monooxygenase oxidative defense mechanism, in the body except for corpora allata because general antioxidants of piperonyl butoxide, isosafrole, and 4-phenyl chalcone oxide showed relatively mild synergism.
