Abstract:
Position recognition is one of the core technologies for driving a robot because of differences in environment and rapidly changing situations. This study proposes a strategy for estimating the position of a camera mounted on a mobile robot. The proposed strategy comprises three methods. The first is to directly acquire information (e.g., identification (ID), marker size and marker type) to recognize the position of the camera relative to the marker. The advantage of this marker system is that a combination of markers of different sizes or having different information may be used without having to update the internal parameters of the robot system even if the user frequently changes or adds to the marker’s identification information. In the second, two novel markers are proposed to consider the real environment in which real robots are applied: a nested marker and a hierarchical marker. These markers are proposed to improve the ability of the camera to recognize markers while the camera is moving on the mobile robot. The nested marker is effective for robots like drones, which land and take off vertically with respect to the ground. The hierarchical marker is suitable for robots that move horizontally with respect to the ground such as wheeled mobile robots. The third method is the calculation of the position of an added or moved marker based on a reference marker. This method automatically updates the positions of markers after considering the change in the driving area of the mobile robot. Finally, the proposed methods were validated through experiments.

Abstract:
Augmented Reality (AR) applications are one of the current mobile app trends. Its ability to display information as if to make the user merge with the information provided. The specialty of the application is in the marker. One marker that is in great demand is known as markerless, such as 3D Object Tracking. In making this 3D Object-based AR application, one must pass a stage where a real object is taken at points or known as points to be used as markers. The application used at this stage of making markers is known as the vuforia object scanner. From the experience of making AR applications, it was found conditions where markers with a large number of points were not able to display information properly, a small number of points were able to display information well and sometimes the two conditions were opposite or comparable, i.e. a lot of points makes a good marker and a few points make a bad marker. This inconsistent condition becomes a problem in this study. The test results show that the points do not affect the marker's ability to display information, but are influenced by the characteristics of the object used as the marker. Tests conducted on randomly selected objects resulted in 2 parameters to be tested in this study, namely the texture and pattern of the object. Markers with good quality to be used as markers for 3D objects are markers with a hard texture, with a detection angle of 90° and 135° and with a regular pattern

Abstract:
With the creation of the molecular markers allowing to carry out analysis of genotypes on the level initial genetic information – DNA, onset one of the most multifarious and one of the most large in number class of markers at the present day. It is concerned with that each separate nucleic acid sequence is unique on its structure. Set of molecular and genetic methods, named as DNA-fingerprinting, most wide used in modern investigations for solving different problems in different biological areas. In this connection, necessity in comparative classification of modern molecular and genetic markers is actual. Based on published literature material it shown data on different classifications of molecular markers. Determined definition of term “marker” in genetics and breeding. Gave the characters and distinctive features of genetic markers. It given the definition what is “good” genetic marker as well as kinds, categories, variations and types on heredity of molecular markers. Manifested by means of molecular markers polymorphisms can classified on polymorphism of sequence itself (including nucleotide substitution and insertion-deletion) and polymorphism the number of tandem repeat sequences in repeated regions. Moreover, molecular markers can classify on two variations: anonymous, for which nucleotide acid sequence unknown and for manifestation of the molecular marker its detection not necessary (for example, RAPD, AFLP, RFLP), and announce (or determined), for which nucleic acid sequence is known or can be detect during analysis (for example, SNP, CAPS, STS). However, in independence on using of molecular markers the choice of method of investigation will be depend on investigated plant species as well. The next influence of molecular and genetic methods on genetics and practical breeding of plants will be depend on results, which will be obtain, in particular, on revealing the possibility or not possibility of genotyping of individual on single genetic marker as wel as on economic price of obtain informative data.

Abstract:
This study revealed the comparison of the use of discourse markers in English speeches between non-native and native speakers of English. The study focused on the types of discourse markers, the similarities and the differences between non-native and native speakers in using discourse markers. This study employed a qualitative research design with the data from the spoken discourse. The findings of the study showed that there were ten sub-categories of discourse markers that are practiced by non-native speakers, namely: assessment marker, manner of a speaking marker, evidential markers, hearsay markers, contrastive discourse markers, elaborative discourse markers, inferential discourse markers, discourse management markers, topic orientation markers, and attention markers. On the contrary, there were nine sub-categories of discourse markers that existed in English speeches, especially delivered by the native speakers such as assessment marker, manner of a speaking marker, evidential markers, hearsay markers, contrastive discourse markers, elaborative discourse markers, inferential discourse markers, topic orientation markers, and attention markers. The total of discourse markers produced by the non-native speakers was 301 utterances while native speakers of English were 269 utterances. Therefore, it is concluded that discourse markers were useful in English speeches either by non-native speakers or native speakers

Abstract:
The jointless pedicel trait of tomato conferred by the j-2 gene is widely used in processing markets for stem-free removal of fruit to accommodate mechanized harvest. Although current utilization of j-2 for fresh-market tomato breeding is limited, interest in this trait may increase as breeders seek to address high labor costs through the development of mechanically harvestable cultivars for the fresh market. Yet, the introduction of this trait into new market classes heavily relies on phenotypic selection because there are presently no high-throughput methods available to genotype j-2. Reliable, high-throughput molecular markers to genotype the presence/absence of j-2 for selective breeding were developed. The molecular markers described here use the high-resolution DNA melting analysis (HRM) genotyping with single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and derived cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (dCAPS)–based genotyping. Two separate HRM-based markers target the j-2 on chromosome 12 or a linked sequence region 3.5 Mbp apart from the gene, and a dCAPS marker resides on the latter. We demonstrate the association between each marker and the jointless pedicel phenotype using segregating populations of diverse filial generations in multiple genetic backgrounds. These markers provide a useful resource for marker-assisted selection of j-2 in breeding populations.

Abstract:
In marker-based augmented reality (AR) systems, markers are usually relatively independent and predefined by the system creator in advance. Users can only use these predefined markers to complete the construction of certain specified content. Such systems usually lack flexibility and cannot allow users to create content freely. In this paper, we propose a virtual marker technique to build a marker-based AR system framework, where multiple AR markers including virtual and physical markers work together. Information from multiple markers can be merged, and virtual markers are used to provide user-defined information. We conducted a pilot study to understand the multi-marker cooperation framework based on virtual markers. The pilot study shows that the virtual marker technique will not significantly increase the user’s time and operational burdens, while actively improving the user’s cognitive experience.

Abstract:
This article takes a quantitative approach to the grammar of English two-part discourse marker sequences like oh well, you know I mean, etc. We investigate the internal ordering preferences of such sequences in spoken American English corpus data from the perspective of grammaticalization. From this perspective, the development of many discourse markers can be understood as involving a process of increasing syntactic de-categorialization (Hopper 1991) as the grammaticalizing element loses its original grammatical constraints and comes to function as a marker at the level of discourse. We test the hypothesis that discourse marker grammaticalization results in largely unconstrained ordering possibilities. Our analysis shows that, on the contrary, discourse marker sequencing is highly constrained. We interpret these constraints in terms of Auer’s (1996) model of discourse marker grammaticalization. Discourse marker sequencing is characterized by strong persistence of a marker’s original syntactic category and reflects its specific grammaticalization trajectory.

Abstract:
Effectiveness of marker-assisted selection (MAS) and quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping using population-wide linkage disequilibrium (LD) between markers and QTL depends on the extent of LD and how it declines with distance in a population. Because marker–QTL LD cannot be observed directly, the objective of this study was to evaluate alternative measures of observable LD between multi-allelic markers as predictors of usable LD of multi-allelic markers with presumed biallelic QTL. Observable LD between marker pairs was evaluated using eight existing measures and one new measure. These consisted of two pooled and standardized measures of LD between pairs of alleles at two markers based on Lewontin's LD measure, two pooled measures of squared correlations between alleles, one standardized measure using Hardy–Weinberg heterozygosities, and four measures based on the chi-square statistic for testing for association between alleles at two loci. In simulated populations with a range of LD generated by drift and a range of marker polymorphism, marker–marker LD measured by a standardized chi-square statistic (denoted χ2′) was found to be the best predictor of useable marker–QTL LD for a group of multi-allelic markers. Estimates of the level and decline of marker–marker LD with distance obtained from χ2′ were linearly and highly correlated with usable LD of those markers with QTL across population structures and marker polymorphism. Corresponding relationships were poorer for the other marker–marker LD measures. Therefore, when LD is generated by drift, χ2′ is recommended to quantify the amount and extent of usable LD in a population for QTL mapping and MAS based on multi-allelic markers.

Thesis (MSc)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.
Triticale is an amphidiploid that consists of wheat (A and B) and rye (R) genomes. This cereal is fast becoming important on a commercial basis and warrants further assessment for the better management and breeding of the hybrid. The assessment of the genetic diversity among the wheat and rye genomes within triticale can be obtained by using molecular markers developed in both donor genomes. Simple sequence repeats markers (SSRs) and amplified fragment length markers (AFLPs) have been previously used to assess the genetic diversity among triticale lines. SSRs are highly polymorphic markers that are abundant and which have been shown to be highly transferable between species in previous studies while AFLP markers are known to generate plenty of data as they cover so many loci. Thus, the aim of this study was to develop a marker system suitable to assess the genetic diversity and relationships of advanced breeding material (and cultivars) of the Stellenbosch University’s Plant Breeding Laboratory (SU-PBL). Therefore, both AFLP and SSR markers were initially analysed using eight triticale cultivars (with known pedigrees) to facilitate cultivar identification. Fourty-two AFLP primer combinations and 86 SSR markers were used to assess the genetic diversity among the Elite triticale cultivars. The AFLP primer combinations generated under average polymorphism information content (PIC) values. Furthermore, these markers generated neighbour-joining (NJ) and unweighted pair group method with arithmetic average (UPGMA) dendograms that displayed relationships that did not correspond with the available pedigree information. Therefore, this marker system was found not to be suitable. A set of 86 SSRs previously identified in both wheat and rye, was used to test the genetic diversity among the eight cultivars. The markers developed in wheat achieved 84% transferability while those developed in rye achieved 79.3% transferability. A subset of SSR markers was able to distinguish the cultivars, and correctly identify them by generating NJ and UPGMA dendograms that exhibited relationships that corroborated the available pedigree data. This panel of markers was therefore chosen as the most suitable for the assessment of the advanced breeding material. The panel of seven SSR markers was optimised for semi-automated analysis and was used to screen and detect the genetic diversity among 306 triticale entries in the F6, Senior and Elite phases of the SU-PBL triticale breeding programme. An average PIC value of 0.65 was detected and moderate genetic variation was observed. NJ and UPGMA dendograms generated showed no clear groupings. However, the panel of markers managed to accurately identify all cultivars within the breeding program. The marker panel developed in this study is being used to routinely distinguish among the advanced breeding material within the SU-PBL triticale breeding programme and as a tool in molecular-assisted backcross.

Abstract:
Infertility affects 15 % of couples, which corresponds to 60 - 80 million worldwide. The microenvironments in which the oocyte, embryo and fetus mature are vital to the establishment and development of a healthy pregnancy. Different biological systems, such as angiogenesis, the immune system and apoptosis need to be adequately regulated for pregnancy to occur and progress normally. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the impact of Histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG) and Src homology 2 domain-containing adapter protein B (SHB) on human female fertility. HRG is a plasma protein that regulates angiogenesis, the immune system, coagulation/fibrinolysis and apoptosis, by building complexes with various ligands. The impact of HRG on fertility is studied here for the first time. HRG is present in follicular fluid, the Fallopian tube, endometrium, myometrium and placenta. HRG distribution within embryo nuclei depends on developmental stage. Blastocysts express and secrete HRG. The HRG C633T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) appears to affect the chance of pregnancy and, correspondingly, parameters associated with pregnancy in IVF. Additionally, this HRG genotype may increase the risk in IVF of only developing embryos unfit for transfer. SHB is an adaptor protein involved in intracellular signaling complexes that regulate angiogenesis, the immune system and cell proliferation/apoptosis. Shb knockout mice have altered oocyte/follicle maturation and impaired embryogenesis. The impact of three SHB polymorphisms (rs2025439, rs13298451 and rs7873102) on human fertility is studied for the first time. The SNP prevalences did not differ between infertile and fertile women. BMI, gonadotropin dosages, the percentage of immature oocytes, the number of fertilized oocytes, the percentage of good-quality embryos and the day of embryo transfer seems to be affected by SHB genotype. In conclusion, HRG and SHB appear to influence female fertility. They are potential biomarkers that might be used for predicting pregnancy chance in infertile women. Knowledge of these genotypes may improve patient counseling and individualization of treatment.

Abstract:
Using data from the China, Oxford and Virginia Commonwealth University Experimental Research on Genetic Epidemiology (CONVERGE) Consortium study of major depressive disorder (MDD)on 11,670 Han Chinese women, this thesis describes an investigation on the etiology of MDD, a psychiatric disease that has eluded previous genetic studies as well as investigations of its mechanistic underpinnings. It asks: what happens during stress, how may it contribute to the risk of developing MDD, and why does it increase the risk of MDD in some people but not others. It presents three main findings. First, a GWAS on MDD conducted on 10,640 samples (5,303 cases and 5,337 controls) in the CONVERGE dataset found two genome wide significant associations with MDD, one lying at the 5' side of SIRT1, and the other in an intron of LHPP. Both signals have been replicated in a completely independent cohort of severe MDD cases and matched controls from Northern China, making them the first replicated association loci for MDD to date. Second, I found there are more copies of mtDNA in cases of MDD than controls and while the increase can be induced by stress, it is contingent on the depressed state. Further analyses of results from animal experiments showed stress increases mtDNA levels in a dose-dependent, reversible and tissue specific way that is mediated partly by stress steroids. Third, the total amount of heteroplasmy was found to increase with increasing mtDNA levels, and therefore is higher in cases of MDD than controls, consistent with a change in mitochondrial function observed in animal models of chronic stress. All three findings suggest stress causes changes in mtDNA, and this change may be larger in cases of MDD than controls. This difference between cases and controls may be due to differences in their regulation of mtDNA levels and sequence mutation during stress, and this may be genetically determined. This study provides a new perspective to the etiology of depression, suggesting it may have origins in metabolic regulation.

Abstract:
Background: Inflammation is now recognised to play a central part in the initiation, progression and clinical manifestation of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Correspondingly, on a population level, circulating levels of a wide range of inflammatory markers have been shown to be predictive of future cardiovascular events, regardless of whether they are measured in asymptomatic people, patients with stable angina, or patients with acute coronary syndromes. These include both systemic markers of inflammation such as the white blood cell count (WBC), fibrinogen, and C-reactive protein (CRP), and locally produced mediators of inflammation such as the cellular adhesion molecule soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM-1), the cell-surface protein soluble CD40 ligand (sCD40L), and the metalloproteinase pregnancy associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A). Investigation of these inflammatory markers has given many useful insights into the mechanisms that underlie the development of atherosclerosis and atherosclerotic clinical events. However, although the association (on a population level) of raised inflammatory markers with increased atherosclerotic events is widely accepted, the clinical utility of these markers (their ability to provide meaningful additional information that will help individualise treatment strategies and lead to better clinical outcomes) remains a subject of vigorous debate. Consequently, the research presented in this thesis has two broad purposes: to determine the value of inflammatory markers in a particular clinical situation (the prediction of restenosis following percutaneous coronary intervention), and to examine whether vascular inflammation is a modifiable risk factor (whether marker levels can be lowered by health interventions such as drug therapy, exercise, or smoking cessation). Methods and results: a. Inflammatory markers and restenosis To investigate whether inflammatory markers are predictive of restenosis following PCI, inflammatory markers (CRP, sICAM-1, sCD40L and PAPP-A) were measured prior to and 48 hours, 1 week and 1 month after elective PCI, and angiographic follow-up was performed at 6 months, in 133 stable angina patients. PCI led to a significant rise in CRP, sCD40L and PAPP-A levels 48 hours post-procedure, but neither pre-PCI nor post-PCI inflammatory marker levels were predictive of restenosis. This lack of association could not be attributed to concurrent use of medications such as statins, thienopyridines or glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors, since 50% of patients were not on statins and no patients received thienopyridines or glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors during the study. b. The effects of lipid lowering agents on inflammatory marker levels The effects of lipid-modifying agents on inflammatory marker levels were tested in 215 participants with stable angina randomised to simvastatin or placebo, and a further 100 participants randomised to simvastatin or bezafibrate, over a treatment period of at least 2 years. In addition, the effect of statins on the inflammatory response to PCI was assessed in a subset of 92 patients by comparing inflammatory marker levels before and 48 hours, 1week, and 1 month after PCI in those randomised to simvastatin versus those randomised to placebo. Although simvastatin led to a reduction in CRP levels with long-term therapy, the effect was modest and variable compared to the predictable effect on cholesterol levels. Average CRP levels fell ~5%, compared to a 40% reduction in LDL cholesterol, and CRP levels increased in nearly a quarter of patients on simvastatin. In addition, simvastatin did not lower levels of any other inflammatory marker, and had no appreciable effect on the inflammatory response to PCI. Similarly, bezafibrate therapy did not lower levels of any inflammatory marker. c. The effect of exercise training on inflammatory marker levels. The effects of exercise training on inflammatory markers were assessed in two separate randomised controlled trials. The first trial involved CRP measurement in 63 healthy elderly participants randomised to either 6 months��� exercise training or to a control group. The second trial involved measurement of several inflammatory markers (WBC, fibrinogen, CRP, sCD40L, sICAM-1) in 152 healthy female smokers randomised to either 12 weeks��� exercise training or to a health education (control) group as part of a smoking cessation program. In both trials, exercise led to a significant improvement in fitness but had no effect on inflammatory marker levels. d. The effect of smoking cessation on inflammatory marker levels The smoking cessation trial also investigated the effect of abstinence from smoking on inflammatory marker levels. Forty-eight individuals (35%) achieved 6 weeks verified abstinence from smoking. Abstinence caused a significant decrease in WBC and fibrinogen levels but had no effect on other inflammatory markers (CRP, sICAM-1, and sCD40L). Conclusions: There are several important findings from this research. Firstly, inflammatory markers are not useful in the prediction of restenosis following PCI in stable angina. Secondly, neither simvastatin nor bezafibrate have major antiinflammatory effects in vivo. This brings into question the mechanism(s) by which statins lower CRP, and has implications for recent proposals in the literature advocating the clinical use of CRP to titrate statin therapy. Thirdly, smoking cessation leads to a reduction in WBC and fibrinogen levels (which may reflect changes in pulmonary inflammation), but neither exercise nor smoking cessation are associated with a broad reduction in inflammatory markers linked to cardiovascular risk. It is therefore unlikely the appreciable cardiovascular benefits of these interventions are due in any substantial part to antiinflammatory effects. It remains to be demonstrated whether there are interventions which can reliably lower inflammatory marker levels, whether this decreases cardiovascular risk, and whether measurement of inflammatory markers improves upon current management of cardiovascular disease and leads to actual clinical benefit.

Abstract:
Proper traffic control is critical in highway work zone safety. Traffic control devices such as signs, barricades, cones, and plastic safety barrels are often used. Accidents can occur because of improper work zone design, improper work zone housekeeping, and driver negligence. One solution is to automate safety devices. This paper presents a mobile safety barrel robot. The Robotic Safety Barrels are the first elements of a team of Robotic Safety Markers (RSM) that includes signs, cones, and possibly barricades and arrestors. To be practical the system must be reliable and have a low per robot cost. A robot that malfunctions could enter traffic and create a significant hazard. Also, multiple safety markers are used and barrels are often struck by vehicles. Safety markers with a high replacement cost are not practical. This paper describes the motivation for the robotic safety marker system and how it could improve work zone safety. The design of three robot prototypes is presented. A control architecture is discussed that has been implemented in simulation and partially tested on the prototype robots.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper proposes an augmented reality (AR) framework and tool on smartphones as an alternative to conventional inspection for AM parts. The framework attempts to introduce the rapid inspection potential of smartphone based AR within manufacturing by leveraging the manufacturing capability of additive manufacturing (AM) to integrate markers onto AM parts. The key step from this framework that is explored in this paper is the design and quality assessment of AM markers for marker registration. As part of the marker design and quality assessment objectives, this research conducts an evaluation on the effects of different AM processes on the quality of augmentation achieved from AM fiducial markers. Furthermore, it evaluates the minimum fiducial pattern size that on integration onto AM parts will be viable for augmentation. The results suggest that the AM process and the size of the fiducial pattern play a significant role in determining the quality of the AM markers. The paper concludes by stating that dual material extrusion AM markers provide the highest number of detectable features and therefore the highest quality of AM markers, and the smallest viable fiducial pattern for Cybercode/QR code marker can be sized at 19 × 19mm2.

Abstract:
Genetic analysis and mapping in grapes has been difficult because of the long generation period and paucity of genetic markers. In the present work, chromosome linkage maps were developed with RAPD, RFLP and isozyme loci in interspecific hybrid cultivars, and RAPD markers were produced in a V. vinifera population. In three cultivars, there were 19 linkage groups as expected for a species with 38 somatic chromosomes. These maps were used to locate chromosome regions with linkages to important genes, including those influencing powdery mildew and botrytis bunch rot resistance; flower sex; and berry shape. In V. vinifera, the occurrence of specific markers was correlated with seedlessness, muscat flavor and fruit color. Polymorphic RAPD bands included single copy as well as repetitive DNA. Mapping procedures were improved by optimizing PCR parameters with grape DNA; by the development of an efficient DNA extraction protocol; and with the use of long (17- to 24-mer) primers which amplify more polymorphic loci per primer. DNA fingerprint analysis with RAPD markers indicated that vinifera cultivars could be separated readily with RAPD profiles. Pinot gris, thought to be a sort of Pinot noir, differed by 12 bands from Pinot noir. This suggests that while Pinot gris may be related to Pinot noir, it is not likely to be a clone. The techniques developed in this project are now being further refined to use marker-assisted selection in breeding programs for the early selection of elite seedlings. Furthermore, the stage has been set for future attempts to clone genes from grapes based upon map locations.
