we collected silver bream blicca bjoerkna from march to july 2013 from aras dam lake (north-west of iran) and investigated its age, size, and some biological characteristics. the maximum age was 5 + years. the total length and weight of specimens ranged 137-278 mm and 26-247 g for male and 134-282 mm and 26-289 g for female, respectively. length-weight relationship was estimated as w = 1e-06tl ...

The Learning With Error problem (LWE) is becoming more and more used in cryptography, for instance, in the design of some fully homomorphic encryption schemes. It is thus of primordial importance to find the best algorithms that might solve this problem so that concrete parameters can be proposed. The BKW algorithm was proposed by Blum et al. as an algorithm to solve the Learning Parity with No...

Research on developing mathematical and simulative models to evaluate performance of signalized arterials is still ongoing. In this paper, an integrated model (IM) based on Rakha vehicle dynamics and LWR model is proposed. The IM which imitates actuated performance measurement in signalized arterials is described using continuous timed Petri net with variable speeds (VCPN). This enables systema...

Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is a chronic osteochondropathy. The pathogenesis of growth and development failure of hand of KBD remains elusive now. In this study, we conducted a two-stage genome-wide association study (GWAS) of palmar length-width ratio (LWR) of KBD, totally including 493 study subjects. Affymetrix Genome Wide Human SNP Array 6.0 was applied for genome-wide SNP genotyping of 90 KB...

This study evaluated the fracture resistance of weakened roots restored with glass fiber posts, composite resin cores and complete metal crowns. Thirty maxillary canines were randomly divided into 3 groups of 10 teeth each: teeth without weakened roots (control); teeth with partially weakened roots (PWR) and teeth with and largely weakened roots (LWR). The control group was restored with glass ...

We show the following reductions from the learning with errors problem (LWE) to the learning with rounding problem (LWR): (1) Learning the secret and (2) distinguishing samples from random strings is at least as hard for LWR as it is for LWE for efficient algorithms if the number of samples is no larger than O(q/Bp), where q is the LWR modulus, p is the rounding modulus, and the noise is sample...

length-weight relationship and condition factor were investigated in seven fish species, including barbus cyri , capoeta gracilis , alburnoides eichwaldi , acanthalbarnus microlepis , ponticola cyrius , cobitis keyvani and oxynemacheilus bergianus from totkabon river. a total of 570 specimens ranging from 25.90 to 146.97 mm in total length and 0.1 to 260.3 g in total weight were collected. base...

studies on the biometric parameters of a species to have an important role in its population or stock management and conservation. present study investigated the morphometric, meristic, length-weight relation (lwrs), length-length relation (llrs) and growth status (k and kn) of the redline torpedo barb, p. denisonii collected during august 2012 to july 2013 from river valapattanam, kerala. the ...
