Undeniably the support of data services over the wireless Internet is becoming increasingly challenging with the plethora of different characteristic requirements of each service type. Evidently, about half of the data traffic shifted across the Internet to date consists of multimedia content such as video clips or music files that necessitate stringent real-time constraints in playback and for...

J. N, Bohannon, R. J. Padgett, K. E. Nelson, and M. Mark (1996) raised numerous points of disagreement with the analyses of J. L. Morgan, K. Bonamo, and L. L. Travis (1995) concerning children's use of parental recasts, responses potentially providing negative evidence. Claiming to show that the bivariate time-series analyses used by Morgan et al. were inherently flawed, Bohannon et al. argued ...

The detection of actual changes in a pair of images is confounded by the inadvertent but pervasive differences that inevitably arise whenever two pictures are taken of the same scene, but at different times and under different conditions. These differences include effects due to illumination, calibration, misregistration, etc. If the actual changes are assumed to be rare, then one can “learn” w...

The Aviation Safety Reporting System collects voluntarily submitted reports on aviation safety incidents to facilitate research work aiming to reduce such incidents. To effectively reduce these incidents, it is vital to accurately identify why these incidents occurred. More precisely, given a set of possible causes, or shaping factors, this task of cause identification involves identifying all ...

background: the aim of this study was to evaluate whether an eight-week group mindfulness-based stress reduction program would be an acceptable and effective treatment for patients suffering from gad. methods: eligible subjects with generalized anxiety disorder were recruited to parsa hospital and shahid rajaee counseling and social work center from june 2009 to october 2011. an experienced psy...

We show that color-kinematics duality is a manifest property of the equations motion governing currents and field strengths. For nonlinear sigma model (NLSM), this insight enables an implementation double copy at level fields, as well explicit construction kinematic algebra associated current. As byproduct, we also derive new formulations special Galileon (SG) Born-Infeld (BI) theory. Yang-Mill...

Purpose This study aims to analyse trust and distrust as specific board processes between the chair chief executive officer (CEO) aimed at reducing corporate governance (CG) risk partially mitigated by regnant CG mechanisms. incorporates nascent literature that posits two separate constructs co-exist simultaneously recasts them in domain. Design/methodology/approach paper analysed data from 20 ...

Variable dimension models are problems where the parameter space is not well defined, therefore the sample space is a infinite collection of unrelated subspaces. If the considered statistical model is not defined in concise way, then the dimensionality of the parameter space can also be part of the model uncertainty. These problems have been studied in the context of Bayesian model comparison a...
