SUMMARY The quality of seismic-to-well tie is commonly quantified using the classical Pearson's correlation coefficient. However the seismic wavelet is time-variant, well logging and upscaling is only approximate, and the correlation coefficient does not follow this nonlinear behavior. We introduce the Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) to automate the tying process, accounting for frequency and time v...

BACKGROUND Pulse waveform analysis (PWA) for determination of augmentation index (AIx), a measure of arterial wave reflections, has been used to assess endothelial function, but only in combination with provocative pharmacologic testing. We hypothesized that AIx under basal conditions would be related to endothelial function as well. METHODS We quantified arterial wave reflections as aortic A...

the purpose of this study was to survey the socioeconomic status of participants in sport for all in mazandaran province. the sample consisted of 384 subjects who were randomly selected. the questionnaire of socioeconomic status was used in this study (?=0.89). descriptive and inferential statistics (pearson correlation coefficient) as well as spss ver. 13 were used to analyze the data (p

based on the point of view of geometrical representation of an intuitionistic fuzzy set, we take into account all three parameters describing intuitionistic fuzzy set, propose a kind of new method to calculate correlation and correlation coefficient of intuitionistic fuzzy sets which is similar to the cosine of the intersectional angle in finite sets and probability space, respectively. further...

Unreliable fault detectors can be used to solve the consensus problem in asynchronous distributed systems that are subject to crash faults. We extend this result to asynchronous distributed systems that are subject to Byzantine faults. We define the class 3S(Byz) of eventually strong Byzantine fault detectors and the class 3W(Byz) of eventually weak Byzantine fault detectors and show that any B...

objective(s): variation in microsatellite sequences that are dispersed in the genome has been linked to a deficiency in cellular mismatch repair system and defects in several genes of this system are involved in carcinogenesis. our aim in this study was to illustrate microsatellite dna alteration in esophageal cancer. materials and methods: dna was extracted from formalin fixed paraffin embedde...

Let {X,Xk,i; i ≥ 1, k ≥ 1} be a double array of nondegenerate i.i.d. random variables and let {pn; n ≥ 1} be a sequence of positive integers such that n/pn is bounded away from 0 and ∞. This work is devoted to the solution to an open problem posed in Li, Liu, and Rosalsky (2010) on the asymptotic distribution of the largest entry Ln = max1≤i<j≤pn ∣∣ρ̂(n) i,j ∣∣ of the sample correlation matrix Γ...
