Airborne SAR systems allow a flexible ground mapping with high geometric resolution, independent from daytime and weather conditions. This offers the opportunity of using this technology for the analysis of built-up areas. However, the oblique SAR illumination limits the visibility of certain objects in urban areas depending on the viewing direction. Especially at building locations different S...

In this paper SAR raw data and SAR image data compression is addressed. For SAR raw data compression we suggest a modified FFT-BAQ. Significant advantages in performance are achieved compared to the standard BAQ and integration in the processing chain is feasible to reduce computational requirements. SAR image compression is mainly performed in wavelet domain. Depending on the application a con...

In E. coli, MinD recruits MinE to the membrane, leading to a coupled oscillation required for spatial regulation of the cytokinetic Z ring. How these proteins interact, however, is not clear because the MinD-binding regions of MinE are sequestered within a six-stranded β sheet and masked by N-terminal helices. minE mutations that restore interaction between some MinD and MinE mutants were isola...

As asteroid mining projects break through the technical barriers, more countries have plan to become pioneers. However, world currently does not a complete policy ensure that can benefit all of humanity. Therefore, exploring its fairness and normality needs be on agenda. AHP EWM are used construct global fair distribution model is in line with "global interests." It defined as fairness" from pe...

NY-SAR-35 is a cancer/testis (CT) antigen that was identified by serological analysis of recombinant complementary DNA expression libraries. The gene encoding NY-SAR-35 is located on the × chromosome and is aberrantly expressed in a number of cancer types and germ cells, such as those in the testes, but not in normal tissue. It has been reported that treatment with a demethylating agent induced...

We model the self-organization of the MinE ring that is observed during subcellular oscillations of the proteins MinD and MinE within the rod-shaped bacterium Escherichia coli. With a steady-state approximation, we can study the MinE-ring generically – apart from the other details of the Min oscillation. Rebinding of MinE to depolymerizing MinD filament tips controls MinE ring formation through...

in recent years, synthetic aperture radar (sar) images have played an important role in the detection and monitoring of ground targets because of their advantages such as independence from climatic conditions and sensitivity to the target geometry. the complexity of sar imaging sensors, especially in the conversion process from raw data to image, has made it difficult to interpret the behavior ...

Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (Pol.-SAR) allows us to implement the recognition and classification of radar targets. This article investigates the arrangement of scatterers by SAR data and proposes a new Look-up Table of Region (LTR). This look-up table is based on the combination of (entropy H/Anisotropy A) and (Anisotropy A/scattering mechanism α), which has not been reported up now. ...

This paper describes an algorithm for Successive Approximation Register (SAR) ADCs with overlapping steps that allow comparison decision errors (due to, such as DAC incomplete settling) to be digitally corrected. We generalize this non-binary search algorithm, and clarify which decision errors it can digitally correct. This algorithm requires more SAR ADC conversion steps than a binary search a...

BACKGROUND Chrysotile from the mine in Balangero, Italy is considered to be free of tremolite. In a cohort study of miners and millers only two pleural cancers were reported, a finding considered to indicate that chrysotile has a low potency for inducing mesothelioma. However, follow-up ended in 1987 and white-collar workers and the employees of subcontractors were not studied. METHODS To com...
