It is well known that radar scattering from an illuminated object is often highly aspect dependent. We have developed a multiaspect target classification technique for SAR imagery that incorporates matching-pursuits feature extraction from each of a sequence of subaperture images, in conjunction with a hidden Markov model that explicitly incorporates the target-sensor motion represented by the ...

There is significant research dedicated to fibroin and sericin, the two major proteinaceous components of the silk threads produced by the domesticated silkworm, Bombyx mori. While fibroin is accepted as an established biomaterial, sericin (BMSS) has been largely neglected in this respect on the account of a hypothetical allergenic activity. Research over the past decade, including our previous...

ultrasound-assisted extraction was used to determine the optimum processing conditions and to achieve the maximum extraction yield and viscosity of the gum extracted from quince seed. using response surface methodology (rsm) to design the experiments and adopting the central composite rotatable design (ccrd), the effect of extraction temperature (25-55°c), time (3-10 minutes), and ph (6-8) were...

Nowadays, voluminous and unstructured textual data is found on the Internet that could provide varied valuable information for different institutions such as health care, business-related, training, religion, culture, history, among others. A alarming growth of fosters need various methods techniques to extract from data. However, exploring helpful satisfy needs stakeholders becomes a problem d...

Introduction: Bolton ratio is considered as seventh key of normal occlusion. Many orthodontic patients have to undergo premolar extractions as a part of treatment. Aims and objectives: The present study was taken up to investigate the effect of premolar extractions on Bolton’s overall ratios in a sample of north Indian population. Materials and methods: Mesiodistal tooth widths were measured on...

A common analogy for describing newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients is to think of turtles, rabbits, and birds. This is an analogy that prostate cancer appears to be attributable to Hinman, who borrowed from Crile when applied to breast cancer (1). Turtles are patients with very slow growing disease. Their disease grows so slowly that they need not be diagnosed, for the disease will never ...
