where sinc(x) := (sinx)/x for x 6= 0 and sinc(0) := 1. They use a version of the Parseval/Plancherel formula to prove that, subject to certain conditions on the parameters aj , the sequence I1, I2, . . . is decreasing; they also give an explicit evaluation of In by expanding the product of sines into a sum of cosines and then integrating by parts. As the Borweins observed, the integral (1.1) ca...

In the article "The ECG in Pulmonary Embolism" by Ferrari et al (March 1997),1 the authors report their experience with the use of ECG in monitoring the workouts of patients with pulmo¬ nary embolism (PE). They found that the pattern of inverted T waves in the anterior precordial leads is the most frequent ECG sign in PE patients and the best index of massive PE, being associated with an angiog...

This paper presents the design consideration and simulation of interpolator of OSR 128. The proposed structure uses the half band filers & Comb/Sinc filter. Experimental result shows that proposed interpolator achieves the design specification, and also has good noise rejection capabilities. The interpolator accepts the input at 44.1 kHz for applications like CD & DVD audio. The interpolation f...

We establish universality limits for measures on a smooth closed contour Γ in the plane. Assume that μ is a regular measure on Γ, in the sense of Stahl, Totik, and Ullmann. Let Γ1 be a closed subarc of Γ, such that μ is absolutely continuous in an open arc containing Γ1, and μ′ is positive and continuous in that open subarc. Then universality for μ holds in Γ1, in the sense that the reproducing...

In this article, we analyze the propagation of Wigner measures of a family of solutions to a system of semi-classical pseudodifferential equations presenting eigenvalues crossings on hypersurfaces. We prove the propagation along classical trajectories under a geometric condition which is satisfied for example as soon as the Hamiltonian vector fields are transverse or tangent at finite order to ...

It is a little over ten years sinc e Chidamber and Kemerer's obje ct-oriented (OO) metric suite which included the Lack of Cohesion Of Methods (LCOM) metric was rst proposed [9]. Despite considerable e ort both theoretically and empirically sinc e then, the softwar eengineering community is still no ne arer nding a generally ac cepte d de nition or me asure of OO cohesion.

This note corrects errors in Hatcher and Oertel’s table of boundary slopes of Montesinos knots which have projections with 10 or fewer crossings.

PURPOSE To develop a fast and stable method for correcting the gibbs-ringing artifact. METHODS Gibbs-ringing is a well-known artifact which manifests itself as spurious oscillations in the vicinity of sharp image gradients at tissue boundaries. The origin can be seen in the truncation of k-space during MRI data-acquisition. Correction techniques like Gegenbauer reconstruction or extrapolation...

In this paper, we describe a new method to map a texture on a surface with a spatially-variant filter. Our filter takes into consideration the effects of anisotropy using a Jacobian approximation while computing the sampling rate, and the interpolation weights are computed with a sinc function. We also discuss how to do forward and backward mapping with the filter, and extend our algorithms to ...
