ABSTRACT Left–right asymmetries are consistent differences between the left and right sides represent an intriguing feature of molluscan morphology. Interestingly, external asymmetries, such as inequivalve shells, often coupled with lateralization in nervous system, which includes functional structural specializations or sides. In case visual lateralized phenotypes frequently include left–right...

The classical theory of radar resolution is based on narrowband sinusoidal waveforms and cannot directly be applied to ultrawideband (UWB) impulse radar. The concept of a generalized ambiguity function, which is a two-dimensional autocorrelation function in the range-Doppler domain, was first introduced by Harmuth in 1981 as a convenient design tool for the performance analysis of carrier-free ...

This paper deals with hands-free acoustical front-ends for human/machine interaction in competing talker situations using efcient frequency-domain implementations of a robust Generalized Sidelobe Canceller (GSC). A new scheme is devised which leads to a factor of three of computational savings. The GSC tracking behavior is not impaired as the block lengths are kept suÆciently small. INTRODUCTIO...

An overview of acoustic echo cancellation systems is presented. First the basics of echo’s, type of echo’s , why echo canceller are required and what are the difference between echo canceller are explained then the application where they can be used is discussed.. This paper presents applications of acoustic echo control and shows most recent solutions. For some selected applications (LEM) resu...

Hyper immunoglobulin-E (IgE) syndrome is an autosomal immune deficiency disease. It is characterized by an increase in IgE and eosinophil count with both T-cell and B-cell malfunction. Here, we report an 8-year-old boy whose disease started with an unusual skin manifestation. When 6 months old he developed generalized red, nontender nodules and pathologic report of the skin lesion was unremarka...

OBJECTIVE The study reported here discusses the duration of the generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS) among frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE), medial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) and idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE). PATIENTS AND METHODS The study was done by analyzing the data from patients who had undergone video-EEG in 2009 and had GTCS during the monitoring. The patients were selected ...

OBJECTIVE Temporal lobe epilepsy is commonly associated with synchronous, hyper-synchronous and des-synchronous activity. The aim of the present work is to explore synchronization activity in both mesial areas in temporal lobe epileptic patients during the interictal state. METHODS Using a cluster technique, we analyzed 17 temporal lobe epilepsy patients' records of foramen ovale electrodes a...

In recent communication systems side lobe level reduction has become one of the important issue. For applications like digital beam forming it is one of the important factor because it reduces the effect of interference arriving outside the main lobe. This reduction in the interference increases the capacity of the communication systems. This paper presents the different methods for reducing th...

Abstract In this paper, the design of non-uniform circular antenna arrays of isotropic radiators with optimum side lobe level reduction is investigated. Two global evolutionary optimization methods (namely; the biogeography based optimization and the self-adaptive differential evolution) are used to determine an optimum set of weights and positions that provide a radiation pattern with optimum ...
