Causal inference with observational data frequently relies on the notion of the propensity score (PS) to adjust treatment comparisons for observed confounding factors. As decisions in the era of "big data" are increasingly reliant on large and complex collections of digital data, researchers are frequently confronted with decisions regarding which of a high-dimensional covariate set to include ...

One of the most representative and studied Distance-Based Queries in Spatial Databases is the K-Closest-Pairs Query (KCPQ). This query involves two spatial data sets and a distance function to measure the degree of closeness, along with a given number K of elements of the result. The output is a set of pairs of objects (with one object element from each set), with the K lowest distances. In thi...

Software engineering often no longer involves building systems from scratch, but rather integrating functionality from existing software and components or implementing packaged software. Conventional software engineering comprises a set of influential approaches that are often considered good practice, including structured programming, and collecting a complete set of test cases. However, these...

in the present paper, we study some properties of fuzzy norm of linear operators. at first the bounded inverse theorem on fuzzy normed linear spaces is investigated. then, we prove hahn banach theorem, uniform boundedness theorem and closed graph theorem on fuzzy normed linear spaces. finally the set of all compact operators on these spaces is studied.

In this paper, we shall introduce generalized fuzzy compactness in L-spaces where L is a complete de Morgan algebra. This definition does not rely on the structure of basis lattice L and no distributivity is required. The intersection of a generalized fuzzy compact L-set and a generalized closed Lset is a generalized fuzzy compact L-set. The generalized irresolute image of a generalized fuzzy c...

Antisense oligonucleotides are powerful tools for the in vivo regulation of gene expression. We have characterized the intracellular distribution of fluorescently tagged phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotides (PS-ONs) at high resolution under conditions in which PS-ONs have the potential to display antisense activity. Under these conditions PS-ONs predominantly localized to the cell nucleus whe...

at present paper, we establish the existence of pullback $mathcal{d}$-attractor for the process associated with non-autonomous partly dissipative reaction-diffusion equation in $l^2(mathbb{r}^n)times l^2(mathbb{r}^n)$. in order to do this, by energy equation method we show that the process, which possesses a pullback $mathcal{d}$-absorbing set, is pullback $widehat{d}_0$-asymptotically compact.

While electronic components have been demonstrated over narrow bandwidths at millimeterwave frequencies, electronic components for broadband and pulse applications have shown much poorer performance. This discrepancy in performance between pulse and narrowband circuits also applies to the related instrumentation. This thesis describes the development of picosecond electronic devices and the rel...
