[1] The T-matrix method has been widely used in radar meteorology because hydrometeors approximate to spheroidal shapes and their sizes are comparable to the sensing wavelength. However, it is considered unsuitable to solve in remote sensing problems concerning vegetation because the particles of interest, leaves and branches, are considered extremely shaped and of large dielectric dimensions, ...

Background: The bovine AGPAT6 gene is one of the potential candidate genes governing milk fat synthesis.Objectives: Identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the targeted region of AGPAT6 gene and their effect on expected breeding values (EBV) of first lactation milk production traits viz. fat %, fat yield and 305 days milk yield in Karan Fries (KF) breeding bulls were so...

Subject analysis of the potential of spontaneous combustion in coal layers with analytical and numerical methods has been always considered as a difficult task because of the complexity of the coal behavior and the number of factors influencing it. Empirical methods, due to accounting for certain and specific factors, have not accuracy and efficiency for all positions. The Rock Engineering Syst...

Consider a two-class clustering problem where we observe Xi = `iμ + Zi, Zi iid ∼ N(0, Ip), 1 ≤ i ≤ n. The feature vector μ ∈ R is unknown but is presumably sparse. The class labels `i ∈ {−1, 1} are also unknown and the main interest is to estimate them. We are interested in the statistical limits. In the two-dimensional phase space calibrating the rarity and strengths of useful features, we fin...

abstract in order to evaluate of yield and yield components of eight wheat cultivars against flix weed (descurainia sophia), an experiment was conducted using a factorial arrangement of treatments in a randomized complete block design with four replications during 2003-2004 growing season in varamin region. the wheat cultivars were tabasi, roshan, karaj2, azadi, niknejad, mahdavi, shiraz and pi...

eight promising lines of bread wheat which had been selected through the preliminary and advanced traits, together with two check cultivar shiroudi and tajan were evaluated for yield, adabtability and response to cereal diseases in an on farm experiment conducted in two sites in moghan. combined analysis of variance on yield and yield components showed significant differences of lines in yield ...

This work presents probability inequalities for sums of independent, random, selfadjoint matrices. The results frame simple, easily verifiable hypotheses on the summands, and they yield strong conclusions about the large-deviation behavior of the maximum eigenvalue of the sum. Tail bounds for the norm of a sum of rectangular matrices follow as an immediate corollary, and similar techniques yiel...

Genetic relationships between yield and type traits were investigated using multiple-trait REML procedures with an animal model. Computing strategies were developed to deal with large populations and numbers of traits. Data consisted of records for 3 production and 15 type traits for 20,836 primiparous cows from 1982 to 1988. The model included 2358 herd management effects, 28,749 animal effect...

G-Frames in Hilbert spaces are a redundant set of operators which yield a representation for each vector in the space. In this paper we investigate the connection between g-frames, g-orthonormal bases and g-Riesz bases. We show that a family of bounded operators is a g-Bessel sequences if and only if the Gram matrix associated to its denes a bounded operator.
