background: the majority of individuals who visit the dentist are anxious. they are usually capable of controlling their anxiety. however, this fear sometimes creates great problems for the patient and dentist such as lack of visiting the dentist for treatment, incorrect diagnosis due to lack of appropriate communication between the patient and dentist, and finally, reduction of oral health lev...

Spectral reprojection techniques make possible the recovery of exponential accuracy from the partial Fourier sum of a piecewise-analytic function, essentially conquering the Gibbs phenomenon for this class of functions. This paper extends this result to non-harmonic partial sums, proving that spectral reprojection can reduce the Gibbs phenomenon in nonharmonic reconstruction as well as remove r...

After the success of the Green Revolution in conquering famine in India, Pakistan and elsewhere in Asia in the 1960s, the world entered a prolonged period of plentiful and cheap food. As documented by Roger Thurow and Scott Kilman in their book Enough: Why the World’s Poorest Starve in an Age of Plenty, this abundance shifted attention away from further agricultural development, particularly fo...

This paper describes heuristic rules for static life/death analysis for general classes of groups in the game of Go, as implemented in authorsÕ world championship computer Go programs Go Intellect and HandTalk. We shall show that for many life and death problems in Go, the e€ect of a tree search can be approximated by a static analysis on the groupÕs interior and surroundings. We investigate ey...

Tumor heterogeneity of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has been the main barrier in conquering breast cancer. To dissect the molecular diversity of TNBC and discover therapeutic targets for TNBC, the molecular classification of TNBC is a prioritized issue in research area. Accordingly, recent studies have been successful in classifying TNBC into several distinct subtypes with specific biol...
