This paper investigates the issues of combination and normalization of interval-valued belief structures within the framework of Dempster–Shafer theory (DST) of evidence. Existing approaches are reviewed, examined and critically analysed. They either ignore the normalization or separate it from the combination process, leading to irrational or suboptimal interval-valued belief structures. A new...

Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by deep sequencing (ChIP-seq) experiments are widely used to determine, within entire genomes, the occupancy sites of any protein of interest, including, for example, transcription factors, RNA polymerases, or histones with or without various modifications. In addition to allowing the determination of occupancy sites within one cell type and under one cond...

AbstractWhile hematoxylin and eosin (H &E) is a standard staining procedure, immunohistochemistry (IHC) further serves as diagnostic prognostic method. However, acquiring special results requires substantial costs. Hence, we proposed strategy for ultra-high-resolution unpaired image-to-image translation: Kernelized Instance Normalization (KIN), which preserves local information successfully ach...

Statistics in the inertial energy transfer range (IETR) of d-dimensional turbulence ( 2≤d≤3) are studied using a Lagrangian renormalized approximation (LRA). The LRA suggests that spectrum IETR is given by Kd|ε¯|2/3k−5/3, where Kd constant and ε¯ flux across wave-number k; forward for dc<d≤3 but inverse 2≤d<dc, dc≈2.065; at d=dc, diverges skewness longitudinal velocity difference vanishes...

The theory of interaction nets, invented by Lafont, is re-examined from the algebraic hypergraph rewriting perspective. Supersimple nets are defined and discussed, and some related classes of nets, the polysimple and monosimple classes, are defined and investigated. Their static properties are established, and the invariants that need to be preserved by rewriting are investigated in detail. It ...

Segmental and suprasegmental speech signal modulations offer information about paralinguistic content such as affect, age and gender, pathology, and speaker state. Speaker state encompasses medium-term, temporary physiological phenomena influenced by internal or external biochemical actions (e.g., sleepiness, alcohol intoxication). Perceptual and computational research indicates that detecting ...

BACKGROUND Regression of left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy with normalization of diastolic function has been reported in patients with aortic stenosis late after aortic valve replacement (AVR). The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of AVR on LV function and structure in chronic aortic regurgitation early and late after AVR. METHODS AND RESULTS Twenty-six patients were in...

Problem statement: Repeated observation of a given area over time yields potential for many forms of change detection analysis. These repeated observations are confounded in terms of radiometric consistency due to changes in sensor calibration over time, differences in illumination, observation angles and variation in atmospheric effects. Also major problem with satellite images is that regions...

A protocol is presented for the calculation of monitor units (MU) for photon and electron beams, delivered with and without beam modifiers, for constant source-surface distance (SSD) and source-axis distance (SAD) setups. This protocol was written by Task Group 71 of the Therapy Physics Committee of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) and has been formally approved by the ...
