there are several techniques in use for non-linear refractive index measurement, namely, interferometric techniques, in which conventional inter-ferometers are used, degenerate for wave mixing (dfwm), and z-scan, each of these techniques suffers from some shortcmings. for example conventional interferometers like fabry-perot and twyman-green need high quality optical components, unwanted reflec...

we study entanglement and squeezing of a cluster of spin systems under the influence of the two-axis countertwisting hamiltonian. the squeezing parameters given by wineland et al and also by kitagawa et al. are chosen as the criteria of spin squeezing. the criterion of pairwise entanglement is chosen to be the concurrence and that of the bipartite entanglement the linear entropy. we also define...

Abstract. More than half of the rainfall brought to Indian subcontinent by summer monsoon is associated with low-pressure systems (LPSs). Yet their relationship boreal intraseasonal oscillation (BSISO) – dominant forcing on only superficially understood. Using reanalysis data, we explore between BSISO and LPS intensity, propagation precipitation, underlying mechanisms. The has a large impact me...

The paper addresses the issue of assessing the importance of input variables with respect to a given dichotomic classification problem. Both linear and non-linear cases are considered. In the linear case, the application of derivative-based saliency yields a commonly adopted ranking criterion. In the non-linear case, the method is extended by introducing a resampling technique and by clustering...

Feature extraction is a very important preprocessing step for classification of hyperspectral images. The linear discriminant analysis (LDA) method fails to work in small sample size situations. Moreover, LDA has poor efficiency for non-Gaussian data. LDA is optimized by a global criterion. Thus, it is not sufficiently flexible to cope with the multi-modal distributed data. We propose a new fea...
