In this research, Graphene Oxide- Gold nanoparticles (AuNP/GO) were easily fabricated by a redox reaction between GO and chloroauric acid without using any additional reductant and then used to stabilize Pickering emulsions. (AuNP/GO) was investigated by FT-IR spectroscopy. The changes of parameters such as contact time, pH, Amoxicillin initial concentration and temperature were tested and inve...

background: one of the challenges of pet/mri combined systems is to derive an attenuation map to correct the pet image. for that, the pseudo-ct image could be used to correct the attenuation. until now, most existing scientific researches construct this pseudo-ct image using the registration techniques. however, these techniques suffer from the local minima of the non-rigid deformation energy f...

We present a novel representation and crossover operator for genetic algorithms. Bits are not linked to one another. Instead, the current population suggests a pseudo-distance between each pair of bits; this pseudo-distance really measures the degree to which bits appear to participate in a building block. Then crossover respects the pseudo-distance: it is clumps of nearby bits that have their ...

in this paper a new algorithm is presented for coherent radar detection of targets, when distribution of the interference (clutter and noise) is non-gaussian. the neyman-pearson criterion is used for optimal detection and several successive received samples from a radar range cell are used for detection in the same cell. on the basis of recent empirical evidences, the interference distribution ...

This work proposes a new pseudo-metric based on fuzzy partitions (FPs). This pseudo-metric allows for the introduction of expert knowledge into distance computations performed on numerical data and can be used in various types of statistical clustering or other applications. The knowledge is formalized by a FP, in which each fuzzy set represents a linguistic concept. The pseudo-metric is design...
