While for the evaluation of robustness of eye tracking algorithms the use of real-world data is essential, there are many applications where simulated, synthetic eye images are of advantage. They can generate labelled ground-truth data for appearance based gaze estimation algorithms or enable the development of model based gaze estimation techniques by showing the influence on gaze estimation e...

Transformers are one of the most valuable assets of power systems. Maintenance and condition assessment of transformers has become one of the concerns of researchers due to huge number of transformers has been approached to the end of their lifetimes. Transformer’s lifetime depends on the life of its insulation and the insulation’s life is strongly influenced by its moisture attraction as well....

A phenomenological method based on the natural orbital representation is applied to construct the ground state one-body density matrix which describes correctly both density and momentum distributions in He, O and Ca nuclei. The parameters of the matrix are fixed by a best fit to the experimental density distribution and to the correlated nucleon momentum distribution. The method allows the nat...

The »truncated crystal field method« which allows determination of the microsymmetry of the crystal field around Kramers . ions is applied to erbium(III) in five different host crystals. The starting data for the calculations are taken from carefully interpreted optical spectra. In the first step, crystal field narameters for various assumed test symmetries are chosen in order to give the best ...

Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the dependency of MAGICA polymer gel dosimeter response (R2) on different electron energies as well as on different mean dose rate for a standard clinically used linear accelerator. Materials and Methods: The sensitivity of the dosimeter was represented by the slope of calibration curve in the linear region measured for each modalit...

Various complementary split ring resonators (CSRRs) are used as defected ground structures (DGSs) in the bandpass filter (BPF) design for different communication applications. In this paper, a hybrid CSRR has been introduced as a DGS in the ground plane of a dual-mode microstrip BPF to produce a new compact filter with dual band response. The proposed CSRR structure is essentially based on the ...

The reaction kinetics as well as the solvation dynamics of the photoinduced electron-transfer (ET) reaction from the electron-donating solvents dimethylaniline (DMA) and diethylaniline (DEA) to rhodamine 6G (R6G) are elucidated using complementary information from transient grating (TG) and three-pulse photon echo peak shift (3PEPS) measurements. The data are contrasted with those obtained from...

We consider ballistic cylindrical nanostructures with an applied longitudinal static magnetic field. Without Coulomb interaction, the field induces points of degeneracy where the ground state of the system is exchanged due to Aharonov-Bohm effect. The Coulomb potential introduces interaction between the degenerate electronic configurations. As a consequence, the crossing points of the free elec...

introduction: nowadays,  considerable developments  in  the field  of  radiotherapy have  been  achieved.  they  include  the  advances  made  in  the  equipments  and  treatment  planning  techniques  which  require  highly complex calculations. such achievements have made it possible to treat cancer patients not only  with  higher  radiation  dose  but  also  with  higher  precision  and  con...

Photosynthesis is an essential part of the plant function and metabolism and a number of herbicides inhibit certain photosynthetic activities. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of some herbicides including Topik, Titos, Equip, Mister, Lumax, Bromicide and Oltima on the photosynthetic efficiency of three corn cultivars (CC-260, 400, 704) in response to salicylic acid (SA) treatmen...
