Proof. Let’s first consider mode = 3. For a fixed node (index) i, its slice matrix X (:, :, i) = ∑R r=1 yi(r) · zr ◦ zr, where yi ∈ R indicates to which cluster the node i belong. More specifically, if node i belongs to cluster r, yi(r) = 1, otherwise yi(r) = 0. Since a node cannot belong to multiple clusters, let’s say it is in cluster r. Then, X (:, : , i) = zr ◦ zr, which is rank one. When m...

We report on 8.7 and 7.6 yr of Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) observations of the Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs) RXS J170849.0−400910 and 1E 1841−045, respectively. These observations, part of a larger RXTE AXP monitoring program, have allowed us to study the long-term timing, pulsed flux, and pulse profile evolution of these objects. We report on four new glitches, one from RXS J170849.0−4...

This study investigated the efficacy of a physical activity (PA) program to improve the attention span in normal weight vs. overweight/obese children. The study was designed as a cluster-randomized controlled intervention. One hundred fifty-seven normal weight and overweight/obese primary school children were randomly divided in three cohorts: Traditional PA, Coordinative PA and a Control group...

objective: yield components and genetic contribution have the most important in final yield and breeding programs of crop plants. for this purpose, 20 varieties of grapevines with russia origin were evaluated in urmia and takestan research station (under full irrigation and drought stress). methods: twenty grapevine genotypes were evaluated in urmia and takestan research station (under full irr...

An unusual property, human leukemic cell-recognizing activity, associated with parasporal inclusions of a noninsecticidal Bacillus thuringiensis soil isolate was investigated, and a protein (named parasporin in this study) responsible for the activity was cloned. The parasporin, encoded by a gene 2,169 bp long, was a polypeptide of 723 amino acid residues with a predicted molecular weight of 81...

Excess visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is associated with a cluster of metabolic abnormalities. A new dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-based VAT measurement approach, CoreScan™, computes VAT mass and volume within the android region of a total body DXA scan. However, there have been no reference values developed for this method. The objective of this study was to determine the normal refere...

the objectives of the present study were to evaluate spring wheat recombinant inbred lines (rils) of diverse origin by estimating genetic parameters viz., variability, character association, cluster analysis, and principal component analysis (pca) for spot blotch resistance and yield components at bhu agricultural research farm during 2010-2011. grain yield per plot was significantly and positi...

in the current study, for improving quality and quantity of ‘yaghooti’ seedless grape, gibberellic acid was sprayed in four concentrations including zero (as control), 15, 25 and 40 mg/l, at three stages, and girdling treatments were carried out simultaneously with the third step of ga3 spraying at the base of  fruit bearing shoots with four replications. the cluster length was significantly in...

evaluating of agronomic traits and their relationships with grain yield are important in plant breeding. in order to evaluate agronomic traits and their effects on grain yield, 76 durum wheat landraces as well as 4 local checks were studied in augmented design with 4 blocks under rainfed condition in maragheh and ardabil locations. the result showed that there is remarkable diversity among land...
