We consider a common due-window assignment scheduling problem jobs with variable job processing times on a single machine, where the processing time of a job is a function of its position in a sequence (i.e., learning effect) or its starting time (i.e., deteriorating effect). The problem is to determine the optimal due-windows, and the processing sequence simultaneously to minimize a cost funct...

This study evaluated the histopathologic changes in the round window niche. , and membrane in cases of chronic suppurative otitis media. The pathologic process was found in all subjects. Fibrocystic or fibrous tissue was most commonly seen, while active granulation was less developed. The round window membrane was thicker and inflamed throughout its layers. Inflammatory invasion of the inne...

This is directly applicable to a scalar signal (such as “number of respiratory cases today”. This method, more commonly used in computational finance, simply compares the count during the current time period with the weighted average of the counts of recent days. Exponential weighting is typically used, where the half-life is known as the “time window” parameter. This time-window parameter is t...

An Adaptive varying window size Recursive Weighted Median Filter [ARWMF] for removing the impulse noise in Color images is presented. The weights for the RWMF are calculated by using the median controlled algorithm. By applying Region of Interest [ROI] on selected windows the weight calculation’s efficiency can be increased and the memory will be reduced because of the ROI. In median controlled...

In this paper, we discuss some equivalences between two recently introduced statistical learning schemes, namely Mercer kernel methods and information theoretic methods. We show that Parzen window-based estimators for some information theoretic cost functions are also cost functions in a corresponding Mercer kernel space. The Mercer kernel is directly related to the Parzen window. Furthermore, ...

A conventional image matching techniques may be classified as either area based or feature based methods. In this paper an area based image matching method is proposed for dense disparity map. The method is a composite technique where first the similarity measure between template window and search window is found by normalized cross correlation technique. Few best matches are selected for the t...

amplitudes of seismic waves decrease with distance according to anelastic properties of the earth and geometrical spreading. the attenuation of ground-motion amplitudes in the frequency domain is an important problem in engineering seismology. it is of particular practical interest in the regions such as zagros (iran). the zagros fold- thrust belt, as a part of alpine- himalayan orogenic belt i...

In this paper, photodetection properties of a Graphene-based device at the third telecommunication window have been reported. The structure of the device is a Graphene-silicon Schottky junction which has been simulated in the form of an infrared photodetector. Graphene has specific electrical and optical properties which makes this material a good candidate for optoelectronic applications. Phot...
