Deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) is an influential tool for solving various problems in machine learning and computer vision. Recurrent connectivity a very important component of visual information processing within the human brain. The idea recurrent rarely applied layers, exceptions being couple DCNN architectures including (RCNN) Liang Hu (in: Proceedings IEEE conference on vision pa...

Human intelligence has always been a fascinating subject for scientists. Since the inception of Spearman’s general intelligence in the early 1900s, there has been significant progress towards characterizing different aspects of intelligence and its relationship with structural and functional features of the brain. In recent years, the invention of sophisticated brain imaging devices using Diffu...

the coordinate transformation allows the exact calculation of some electrode configurations. in this paper the prolate spherical coordination transformation is used to calculate the field of a hyperboloiderod against plan electrode. the exact field is caculated using two new parameters: 1) electrodes spacing and 2) the radius of curvature of the tip of the rod electrode. the partial discharge i...

In the last decades, a large focus is being placed on sustainability and safety of power transformer spectrum. Ester liquids, which have interesting properties such as high fire point biodegradability, are gaining needed attraction. Since in-service condition, thermal aging deteriorates physicochemical electrical liquid dielectrics, it important to study their long-term behavior. this contribut...

First generation gas insulated switchgears were constructed with large safety margin. Today’s trend is to reduce the size of the switchgears to save material and costs. With increased field strength due to reduced dimensions as well as increased pressure in the compartments, the influence of surface roughness, surface damages and conducting particles is increasing. Therefore the knowledge of th...

BACKGROUND Scientific Initiation Programmes (SIP) are now considered increasingly important in medical courses, and are now being introduced in many medical courses. The School of Medicine at Universidade Federal Fluminense pioneered on optional SIP in 1995. This study aims to compare scientific output of professors who engaged in SIP disciplines (SIP group) with that of professors who did not ...

BACKGROUND Adherence to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) medication is the greatest patient-enabled predictor of treatment success and mortality for those who have access to drugs. We systematically reviewed the literature to determine patient-reported barriers and facilitators to adhering to antiretroviral therapy. METHODS AND FINDINGS We examined both developed and developing na...
