Te-Ming Tu Shun-Chi Su Hsuen-Chyun Shyu Ping Sheng Huang Chung Cheng Institute of Technology Department of Electrical Engineering Taoyuan, Taiwan 33509 Republic of China Abstract. The intensity-hue-saturation (IHS) and Brovey transforms are two widespread image fusion methods in the remote sensing community. However, both are sensitive to the characteristics of the analyzed area. Restated, they...

This study aims to evaluate the factors that influence data saturation in qualitative studies. The adopted a systematic literature review of 24 journal articles published between 2018 and 2022. were obtained from Google scholar database. findings point five affect namely, pre-determined codes themes, sample size, relevancy research subjects (respondents), number methods, length collection sessi...

In this work, SO2 adsorption on 13X and 5A was explored at different concentrations, and the results were compared to molecular simulation and models. The adsorbent saturation tests were performed at four different concentrations of 250, 500, 750, and 1000 ppm, and it was observed that saturation would take more time for higher SO2 concentrations. Grand Canonical Monte Carlo method was used for...

background: the purpose of our study was to evaluate an inexpensive and available method to reduce mucous impactions in mechanically ventilated patients. methods: this randomized clinical trial was conducted on 40 mechanically ventilated patients aged 15-90 years. the patients were randomly allocated into two arms; 20 cases and 20 controls. the cases received n-acetylcysteine via their nebulize...

We present a new distributed algorithm for code assignment in a multihop radio network. The algorithm is based on the Saturation-Degree coloring scheme proposed in [1], which has proved better than earlier attempts at solving the problem. A crucial parameter of the proposed algorithm is the depth of the neighborhood that must be considered when a local decision must be taken. By tuning this par...

background & aim : pulse oximetry is a frequently used and standard non-invasive method for monitoring oxygen (o2)-saturation in blood. many factors including dark skin and pigmentation may effect on rate of saturation of the blood oxygen absorbed by pulse oximetry. the effect of nail polish and/or henna color on blood oxygen has not been yet identified and the present study has been carried ou...

The principles of sequential saturation as a form of competitive binding assays are discussed in detail and differentiated from those of equilibrium techniques. The rationale of its applicability in practice and its potential to increase sensitivity under certain assay conditions are demonstrated with three binding systems involving digoxin, insulin, and folates. The advantages and disadvantage...

I explore the sample size in qualitative research that is required to reach theoretical saturation. I conceptualize a population as consisting of sub-populations that contain different types of information sources that hold a number of codes. Theoretical saturation is reached after all the codes in the population have been observed once in the sample. I delineate three different scenarios to sa...

iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by coprecipitation method using ammonia as precipitation agent. most researchers usually add ammonia into the iron salt solution but in this work the salt solution drop wise has been added to the ammonia and the new obtained results were compared with those of other researches. magnetic properties of nanoparticles were measured by vsm. the effect of rea...
