This article presents the viability analysis and the development of heart disease identification embedded system. It offers a time reduction on electrocardiogram - ECG signal processing by reducing the amount of data samples, without any significant loss. The goal of the developed system is the analysis of heart signals. The ECG signals are applied into the system that performs an initial filte...

This papers addresses whether observed violations in the Liquidity Preference Hypothesis (LPH) can be explained by the presence of multiple regimes in the term premia. The investigation proceeds by directly testing the LPH via a series of inequality tests which allow the moments to be conditioned on observable information using an instrumental variables approach. The apparent rejection of the L...

During spermiogenesis in most animal species, sperm nuclei undergo morphogenesis which results in the transformation of relatively large spherical nuclei with diffuse chromatin into small elongate or flattened nuclei with highly condensed chromatin. The shapes of nuclei of mature spermatozoa are beutifully precise and species-specific. There is no general agreement among cell biologists as to t...

Clustering is a very useful technique which helps to enrich the semantics of the data by revealing patterns in large collections of poly-dimensional data. Moreover the fuzzy approach in clustering provides flexibility and enhanced modeling capability, as the results are expressed in soft clusters, allowing partial memberships of data points in the clusters. During the last decade, the digitaliz...

A Exposição Internacional do Centenário da Independência Brasil teve lugar entre o desmonte Morro Castelo e respectivo aterramento Praia de Santa Luzia, no Rio Janeiro, em 1922/23. Bastante estudada por diversas disciplinas, a comemoração oficial centenário, prestes completar 100 anos, já foi motivo publicações na área dos estudos urbanísticos arquitetônicos, com destaque para os textos Ângela ...

In 2004, the rates charged to many uninsured and other “self-pay” patients for hospital services were often 2.5 times what most health insurers actually paid and more than three times the hospital’s Medicare-allowable costs. The gaps between rates charged to self-pay patients and those charged to other payers are much wider than they were in the mid-1980s, and they make it increasingly more dif...

The most common source of funding for grant proposals in the field of biology in the United States is the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The Department of Defense, National Science Foundation, and many local agencies are utilized by many investigators. An insight into the NIH guidelines and procedures is provided by an NIH Web site: http:// grants.nih.gov/grants/grant tips.htm. Based on m...

In terms quantity, church youths are around 379 members, but only 13 people involved services, namely commission. makes author feel concerned examine more deeply problems experienced by young people. uses a qualitative research method with descripti...

Some of the well-known fuzzy clustering algorithms are based on Euclidean distance function, which can only be used to detect spherical structural clusters. Gustafson-Kessel clustering algorithm and Gath-Geva clustering algorithm were developed to detect non-spherical structural clusters. However, the former needs added constraint of fuzzy covariance matrix, the later can only be used for the d...
