This work presents a quantum associative memory (Alpha-Beta HQAM) that uses the Hamming distance for pattern recovery. The proposal combines the Alpha-Beta associative memory, which reduces the dimensionality of patterns, with a quantum subroutine to calculate the Hamming distance in the recovery phase. Furthermore, patterns are initially stored…[Read more]

The influence of ultrasound-assisted immersion freezing (UF), immersion freezing (IF), and air freezing (AF) on the protein oxidation, structure, and thermal stability of chicken breast during frozen storage was evaluated in this study. Compared to IF and AF samples, the UF samples had a lower carbonyl content, dityrosine content, and surface…[Read more]

Hypoglycemia deprives the brain of its primary energy source glucose. Reductions in whole-brain amino acid energy substrate levels suggest that these non-glucose fuels may be metabolized during glucose shortage. Recurring hypoglycemia can cause mal-adaptive impairment of glucose counter-regulation; yet, it is unclear if amplified reliance upon…[Read more]
