One of the most important and studied mechanism of the DDR is the p53 pathway. This protein acts as a tumor suppressor. MDM2, MDM4 and PLK1 inhibit its proapoptotic activity by binding to its sequence-specific DNA-binding site. To model the interactions between the species with the purpose of finding key points in the regulation of proliferation in cancer cell lines, we propose a transcriptional regulatory network conformed by miRNAs, mARNs and transcription factors involved in the modulation of p53 tumor suppressor protein using Ordinary Differential Equations. Our results suggest miR-34a has a strong control in the regulation of MDM4 and its overexpression results in the decrease of the expression of this protein without significantly affecting the expression of p53. We propose that the combination of miR-34a and small molecule inhibitors of MDM2 may be a therapeutic alternative for treating cancer progression and relapse prevention.","PeriodicalId":127078,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Work Conference on Bioinspired Intelligence (IWOBI)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124850660","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the designer tries to increase the power of the motors to give the robot better payload capacity, by doing so, it also makes the robot itself heavier and then the improvement in payload capacity is lost in lifting the robot itself. Many approaches to improve payload capacity consist in using an existing commercial electric motor and modifying it by adding external accessories to avoid non-safe motor internal heat. They usually use a mechanic reduction to increase payload capacity, but they lose maximum speed at the same time. Currently, there are no proper solutions for a motor in a humanoid robot application that manages to lift very heavy objects at high speed and that at the same time the motors are small and lightweight. In order to obtained more power from the robot joint actuator, in this paper we propose and compared a new thermal channel and thermal sealed jacket design for a permanent magnet electric motor to solve this problem. The design takes advantage of the fractional-slot concentrated-winding motor configuration and its fill factor to force liquid and air directly to the winding separately, in order to examine their head extradition to increase its performance in a specify scenario. The propose design shows an improvement in relation to the head extraction of the sealed jacket design with respect to the thermal channels when forcing liquid through them. Both designs are simulated assuming an extreme scenario where the winding reaches 100 °C for validation purposes. The experiments were carried out in the Ansys CFD Software to evaluate their heat transfer behavior.","PeriodicalId":127078,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Work Conference on Bioinspired Intelligence (IWOBI)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128701552","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditionally, identifications are done by using dichotomous or polytomous keys based on physical characteristics of trees. However, these techniques are of little use when the trees have been cut, removed from their natural environment, and consequently there is only a partial subset of information on all those traits. In these cases, it may be possible to resort to the anatomical characteristics of the wood, which are less affected by environmental factors and therefore have a high diagnostic value in the identification. For some years now, computers have been used to support the identification processes through interactive keys and access to global repositories of digital images, among others. However, techniques based on machine learning have recently been developed and applied successfully to the identification of both plant and animal species. Consequently, automatic or semiautomatic techniques have been proposed to support botanists, taxonomists and non-experts in the species identification process. This article presents an overview of the use of these techniques as well as the current challenges and opportunities for the identification of forest species based on xylotheque samples.","PeriodicalId":127078,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Work Conference on Bioinspired Intelligence (IWOBI)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124302179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This requires the robot to understand how its environment (objects, people, conditions) behaves. One method that tries to connect the environment to the robot is called object model. This proposed system (object model) is able to give the robot an understanding of the physics of the environment. Object models have been used to give robots the ability to understand and control object behavior. This information helps robots to be more capable for skilled manipulation tasks, by predicting how the object will react to external stimulus. The object model used as case of study in this paper, uses an analytical representation for describing object behavior. This analytical representation has the advantage of using meaningful object properties and quickly allowing the robot to manipulate the object without doing a lot of trial and error repetitions. A challenge of this approach is that it can be very difficult to derive a mathematical/mechanical model of the object behavior. Therefore, this model, in most cases, will not describe all the peculiarities and details of object behavior. As a result, predictions are good but not perfect. This paper proposes a method to improve the prediction performance of such system, by learning the error of the analytical model and using this to correct the original prediction. Our results show that such a system is able to improve the prediction performance of the system. A quantitative evaluation using cross validation is provided to demonstrate the ability of our system to reduce the error exhibited by the prediction system (object model).","PeriodicalId":127078,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Work Conference on Bioinspired Intelligence (IWOBI)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122204630","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, chemotherapy-resistant tumors arise especially in relapsing and progressive disease. Understanding of mechanisms underlaying Cisplatin-CDDP chemotherapy resistance may help find new therapeutic targets to revert this phenotype. The aim of this work, through an integrative Systems Biology approach, is to optimize an in silico model of TFs-miRNAs gene expression regulatory network of CDDP-chemoresistant cancer cell lines. By identifying modules of co-expressed genes in this regulatory network we expect further understanding of CDDP-chemoresistant phenotype. A set of deregulated genes was determined for two CDDP-chemoresistant cancer cell lines by considering gene copy number and transcriptomics. These genes were used as input targets for the construction and fitting of a large scale ordinary differential equations (ODE) model using our biocomputational platform previously reported. Model optimization was performed using COPASI and modules of correlated genes were determined using WGCNA. A model of 108 deregulated target genes, 44 transcription factors and 21 miRNAs was successfully constructed and optimized. Eleven modules of correlated genes were determined along with their gene product annotation. This report contributes to the understanding of the complex regulatory networks of CDDP-resistance and the future design of therapeutic strategies to overcome drug resistance.","PeriodicalId":127078,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Work Conference on Bioinspired Intelligence (IWOBI)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114122203","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To accomplish this, we must design the robot body in such a way that will allow it to achieve many different ways to manipulate the objects. In this work, we present a design method to mount a two-arm assembly in a torso and a mobile base (to complete a humanoid robot) taking into account a voxelized structure of points to reach and a variable orientation and relative position of both arms. We make use of the concept of capability maps to calculate a score for different possible two-arm assembly placements. An object to manipulate is selected. In particular, we are using the object size as the most important manipulation feature. We test many possible arm mounting configurations with many different object positions and we run an object reaching simulation for each of these combinations. The successfulness of each of these trails is used to derive a capability map. A score for each map (that corresponds to a different arm mounting configuration) is derived and used to select the final placement of the robot. With this work, we present an effective process to determine the best arms bases placement accord to the collaborative reaching results for a two-arm humanoid robot.","PeriodicalId":127078,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Work Conference on Bioinspired Intelligence (IWOBI)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114120315","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
