Using a multi-longitudinal-mode (MLM) and a single-longitudinal-mode (SLM) all-solid-state green lasers to be the pumping sources of a continuous-wave Ti:sapphire laser, respectively, the intensity-noise dependence of the Ti:sapphire laser on the longitudinal-mode structure of pumping sources is experimentally studied. The comparison between the theoretical prediction based on the quantum-mecha...

This paper puts forward a neuro-rough model which is a combination of a multi-layered perceptron and rough set theory. The model is formulated using Bayesian framework and trained using Monte Carlo method and Metropolis criterion. The model is then tested on an ante-natal dataset and is able to combine the accuracy of the multilayered perceptron model and the transparency of rough set model. Th...

This study aimed to evaluate the genetic variability of the teak germplasm bank, using morphological traits and inter-simple sequence repeat molecular markers. Thirty clones were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replicates, and each plot was composed of three plants. A joint analysis of quantitative and qualitative variables was performed using the Gower algorithm. Qua...

False positives in a Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) can be effectively controlled by a fixed effect and random effect Mixed Linear Model (MLM) that incorporates population structure and kinship among individuals to adjust association tests on markers; however, the adjustment also compromises true positives. The modified MLM method, Multiple Loci Linear Mixed Model (MLMM), incorporates mul...

Introduction The success whereby variants of multi-carrier orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (Mc-OFDM), including Mc-CDMA, have been introduced in WLAN standards such as 802.11a and g (WiFi), as well as in broadband wireless access standards such as 802.16-2004 (WiMax), has spawned the idea of extending their application to next generation single-carrier wireless cellular systems that ...

Computed tomography (CT)-guided lung biopsy of nodules located near the heart may be associated with potential complications. To understand the influences of cardiac motion on lung parenchyma during biopsy, we processed the cardiac phase images of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) and noticed shifts in mediastinum lung margin (MLM) at different zones.Thirty eight CCTA (27 men and 11 women) were re...

The main contribution of this work is a new paradigm for image compression. We describe a new multi-layered representation technique for images. An image is encoded as the superposition of one main approximation, and a sequence of residuals. The strength of the multi-layered method comes from the fact that we use different bases to encode the main approximation and the residuals. For instance, ...

Abstract In this article, we analyze the convergence rate of modified Levenberg-Marquardt (MLM) method under Hölderian local error bound condition and continuity Jacobian, which are more general than Lipschitz Jacobian. Under special circumstances, MLM coincides with results presented by Fan. A globally convergent algorithm trust region technique will also be given.

An efficiency of the nonsingular meshless method (MLM) was analyzed in an acoustic indoor problem. The solution assumed form series radial bases functions (RBFs). Three representative kinds RBF were chosen: Hardy’s multiquadratic, inverse Duchon’s functions. room field with uniform, impedance walls considered. To achieve goal, relationships among physical parameters problem and approximate firs...
