Using SEEK for multichannel pattern recognition.

Abstract

The author's work on computerized analysis of the 2-channel, 24-hr electrocardiogram has previously resulted in the development of multichannel signal processing systems that learn by observation. A new tool for implementing such algorithms is described: the pattern recognition language SEEK. Programs written in SEEK build a knowledge base containing treelike data structures, each of which stores acquired information about a particular multichannel waveform. Input data are interpreted by performing an efficient parallel evaluation of the structures in the knowledge base. The work is applicable to a wide variety of pattern recognition problems that arise in medical signal processing. The approach is illustrated with examples drawn from ECG analysis.

Molecular orbital study on the glutathione-dependent detoxication of ozonides.

The present paper describes a theoretical study on the mechanism underlying the reaction of cellular glutathione (GSH) with polyunsaturated fatty acid ozonides. The reaction can be catalyzed by glutathione S-transferases and leads to detoxication of the ozonides. Semi-empirical molecular orbital computer calculations suggest that the reaction of glutathione with ozonides involves a nucleophilic attack at one of the carbon atoms of the ozonide ring, instead of at one of the peroxidic oxygen atoms of the ozonide ring. This implies a mechanism different from that of the glutathione S-transferase-mediated reaction with hydroperoxides, previously proposed for the glutathione-dependent detoxication of fatty acid ozonides.
