Sinkhorn divergence is a symmetric normalization of entropic regularized optimal transport. It smooth and continuous metrized weak-convergence with excellent geometric properties. We use it as an alternative for the minimax objective function in formulating generative adversarial networks. The optimization defined objective, under non-convex non-concave condition. This work focuses on optimizat...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a mathematical programming method in operations research that can be used to distinguish between efficient and inefficient decision making units (dmus). however, the conventional dea models do not have the ability to rank the efficient dmus. this article suggests bootstrapping method for ranking measures of technical efficiency as calculated via non-radial mod...

the rings considered in this article are commutative with identity $1neq 0$. by a proper ideal of a ring $r$,  we mean an ideal $i$ of $r$ such that $ineq r$.  we say that a proper ideal $i$ of a ring $r$ is a  maximal non-prime ideal if $i$ is not a prime ideal of $r$ but any proper ideal $a$ of $r$ with $ isubseteq a$ and $ineq a$ is a prime ideal. that is, among all the proper ideals of $r$,...

BACKGROUND AND AIM Aim of this retrospective study was to compare long-term mortality and incidence of new diseases [diabetes and cardiovascular (CV) disease] in morbidly obese diabetic and nondiabetic patients, undergoing gastric banding (LAGB) in comparison to medical treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS Medical records of obese patients [body mass index (BMI) > 35 kg/m(2) undergoing LAGB (n = 3...

Introduction: Communication is the essence of life. Speech, Language and Hearing are involved rigorously in any communication around us. Children Hearing loss in children constitutes a considerable handicap because it is an invisible disability & compromises optimal development & personnel achievement of a child. Screening is one of the most important methods for early diagnosis of hearing loss...
