five carnation cultivars (‘grand salam’, ‘nelson’, ‘kaly’, ‘cinderella’ and ‘tempo’) were evaluated with respect to growth, yield and quality characteristics under lath house conditions at kala shah kaku research station, directorate of floriculture, lahore during 2011. among the cultivars studied, maximum plant height was recorded in carnation cultivar ‘grand salam’ (78.66 cm) closely followed...

A 37 year old male with a history of peptic ulcer disease presented to the emergency room with nausea and vomiting. He reported two recent episodes of syncope, but denied other associated symptoms including palpitations, hematemesis, melena, chest pain, or dyspnea. He reported recent use of marijuana, but denied use of cocaine or methamphetamines. The patient reported similar symptoms in 2006 w...

This study investigated the strength of sensory and cognitive components involved in musical priming. In Experiment 1, the harmonic function of the target chord and the number of pitch classes shared by the prime sequence and the target chord were manipulated. In Experiment 2, the temporal course of sensory and cognitive priming was investigated. For both musician and nonmusician listeners, cog...

Introduction Malnutrition is a widely prevalent problem in India and one of astonishing magnitude. According to the National Family Health Survey (1992-93), more than half (53%) of children below four years of age are under nourished. In 1998, 29.1% children between 1-5 years of age suffered from moderate and 12.3% from severe under-nutrition. Nutritional adequacy is one of the key determinants...

the waiting time between children births are called tempo. this phenomenon plays a crucial role in the child and mother health. the purpose of the present study is determination of factors which influence this variable of interest. a significance level of 5% and power of 80% considered to calculate the required sample size for this cross sectional study. the sample size of 124 women determined ...

objective: tempo is the average waiting time to next birth for a woman. role of fertility as the most important phenomenon determining population fluctuations due to the studies of it compared with other demographic phenomena be important and review the multifarious socioeconomic factors of it share  a large effective population studies. general purpose of this study is fitting the cox model to...

Automatic beat tracking and tempo estimation are challenging tasks, especially for audio music with nonbinary tempo or weak percussion. This paper proposes a Kmeans clustering approach to handle tempo estimation with one-third/triple tempo or weak percussion. In particular, the first stage is to compute the tempo curve from the tempogram by DP(Dynamic Programming). Then use Kmean clustering to ...

For the peak picking of tempo candidates, applying kmeans clustering on tempo curve is straightforward and leading to good result. But the tempo candidates obtained from tempo curve are limited and lose a lot of information for possible tempi. The study proposes the local maximum peak picking method to increase the number and information of possible tempo candidates. Therefore, the accuracy of ...
