car license plate recognition is addressed in this paper. given the development of intelligent transportation systems, it is absolutely essential to implement a strong license plate recognition system. efforts were made to put forward a novel reliable method for car license plate recognition in iran. each license plate recognition system comprises three main parts. the first part is the license...

Résumé : De nos jours, les ontologies sont souvent développées de manière multilingue. Cependant, pour des raisons historiques, dans le domaine biomédical, de nombreuses ontologies ou terminologies ont été traduites d'une langue à une autre ou sont maintenues explicitement dans chaque langue. Cela génère deux ontologies potentiellement alignées mais avec leurs propres spécificités (format, déve...

background and objectives: probiotic yeasts are used in production of functional foods and pharmaceutical products. they play an important role in promoting and maintaining human health. until now, little work has been published on improving the survival of saccharomyces in stimulated gastrointestinal condition. material and methods: in this study the exposure of the yeast in the capsulate and ...

The increasingly dynamic nature of resource discovery and binding in modern large-scale distributed and mobile systems poses significant challenges for existing middleware platforms. Future platforms must provide strong support for adaptive behaviour in order both to maintain and optimise services in the face of changing context. We use a survey of existing middleware systems to develop some co...

An " assumed stresses " hybnd method is studied to provide (external) approximations to the plate vibration problem, variationaîly formulated on some space which is orthogonal to all selfequilibrating stresses Convergence results and error estimâtes are denved by a Rayleigh pnnciple Resumé — On utilise une méthode d'éléments finis « hybrides duaux » pour approcher le problème des vibrations lib...

Curto and Fialkow proved in 1996 that flat positive semidefinite moment matrices always come from a finitely atomic positive measure. The tedious part of the proof is to show that flat moment matrices have always a flat extension. We give a new short argument for this based on Gröbner bases. Résumé. Curto et Fialkow ont démontré en 1996 que les matrices des moments, plates et semidéfinies posit...

PURPOSE Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common complication after spinal surgery. However, no clear definition of POUR currently exists, and no studies have evaluated the management of POUR. We aimed to investigate the prognostic factors for eventual POUR-free status in spinal surgery patients. METHODS The records of patients who received a urologic consultation for POUR from Janu...
