There is a demand for reduced power consumption in the vapor compression refrigeration cycle. Coefficient of performance of window-air conditioners considerably decreases and power consumption increases under very hot conditions. These problems have encouragecl studies aimed at improving the performance of window-air-conditioners by enhancing the heat transfer rate in the condenser. In this ar...

Interrupted aortic arch with an aortopulmonary window is a rare congenital entity that is associated with high morbidity and mortality, especially in premature low-birth-weight infants, and the proper timing of surgical correction remains a matter of debate. We present the case of a premature infant weighing 1.6 kg who successfully underwent one stage surgical repair to treat interrupted aortic...

Retinal vessel segmentation is an essential step of the diagnoses of various eye diseases. In this paper, we propose an automatic, efficient and unsupervised method based on gradient matrix, the normalized cut criterion and tracking strategy. Making use of the gradient matrix of the Lucas-Kanade equation, which consists of only the first order derivatives, the proposed method can detect a candi...

Traditionally, object localization is cast as an image window classification problem, where each window is considered independently and scored based on its appearance alone. Instead, we propose a method which scores each candidate window in the context of all other windows in the image, taking into account their similarity in appearance space as well as their spatial relations in the image plan...

We propose a method for annotating the location of objects in ImageNet. Traditionally, this is cast as an image window classification problem, where each window is considered independently and scored based on its appearance alone. Instead, we propose a method which scores each candidate window in the context of all other windows in the image, taking into account their similarity in appearance s...

seismic attribute is a quantitative measure of an interested seismic characteristic. there are several seismic attributes. in recent years, time-frequency (tf) attributes have been developed which to reach them, tf analyzing of seismic data is required. a high resolution tf representation (tfr) can yield more accurate tf attributes. there are several tfr methods including short-time fourier tra...
