BACKGROUND Measures of spike train synchrony are widely used in both experimental and computational neuroscience. Time-scale independent and parameter-free measures, such as the ISI-distance, the SPIKE-distance and SPIKE-synchronization, are preferable to time scale parametric measures, since by adapting to the local firing rate they take into account all the time scales of a given dataset. N...

background values used by the nursing profession are essential in order to maintain high standards of the nursing care. objectives the aim of this study was to compare the perspective of nursing students from type ι and iii universities of medical sciences about professional values of nursing in iran. materials and methods in this cross-sectional survey, we investigated the professional values ...

We investigate McVittie and generalized solutions for Horndeski gravity with a spatially homogeneous gravitational scalar field, which is stealth at small scales near the central object but, large scales, sources FLRW universe in inhomogeneity embedded. Unlike previous studies, we include matter obtain extended cuscuton model. The possible configurations are classified according to time-depende...

Recent empirical studies of the internet and WAN traffic data have observed multifractal behavior at time scales below a few hundred milliseconds. There have been some attempts to model this phenomenon, but there is no model to connect the small time scale behavior with behavior observed at large time scales of bigger than a few hundred milliseconds. There have been separate analyses of models ...
