Capacitors in power systems are used to supply reactive power for the purpose of loss minimization and voltage profile improvement. Besides, appropriate placement of capacitors is also important so as to ensure that system power loss and total capacitor costs is reduced. Most of the capacitor placement techniques assume that the system is balanced and ignore the effect of harmonics. In this pap...

Fusion of multi-sensor imaging data enables a synergetic interpretation of complementary information obtained by sensors of different spectral ranges. Multi-sensor data of diverse spectral, spatial and temporal resolutions require advanced numerical techniques for analysis and interpretation. This paper reviews ten advanced pixel based image fusion techniques – Component substitution (COS), Loc...

Infantile hemangioma (IH) is a vascular tumor that begins with rapid vascular proliferation shortly after birth, followed by vascular involution in early childhood. We have found that NOTCH3, a critical regulator of mural cell differentiation and maturation, is expressed in hemangioma stem cells (HemSCs), suggesting that NOTCH3 may function in HemSC-to-mural cell differentiation and pathologica...

Artemisinin (AR) is a widely used antimalarial drug. Recently, additional uses for AR as an anticancer drug were discovered. Using TUNEL, immunohistochemistry (IHS) markers and flow cytometry techniques, we evaluated the effect of AR and 5-FU on HPV 16 immortalized and transformed human gingival epithelial (IHGK) cells. The results of TUNEL showed that AR-treated IHGK cells consisted of 82% pos...

This paper describes clinical disorder recognition and encoding system submitted by IHS R&D Belarus team at the SemEval-2015 shared task related to analysis of clinical texts. Our system is based on IHS Goldfire Linguistic Processor and uses a rich set of lexical, syntactic and semantic features. The proposed system consists of two components: a CRF-based approach to recognize disorder entities...

In the Lower Cretaceous McMurray Formation (Alberta, Canada), many intervals of intensely bioturbated (Bioturbation Index = 5–6) fine-grained sediments are characterized by high gamma-ray (GR) readings. Several methods, including sedimentary facies analysis, thin-section petrography, handheld spectral gamma-ray, portable X-ray fluorescence, diffraction, inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrome...

رابطه‌­ی شدت ترمولومینسانس براساس مدل سینتیک مرتبه‌­ی اول بدون در نظرگرفتن اثر فروکشی دمایی مورد استفاده قرار می‌­گیرد. این حالی است که به عنوان یک واقعیت فیزیکی باید روابط بیان‌­کننده‌­ی توجه گیرد. کار با نظر گرفتن برای اول، تابع جداسازی منحنی تابش جدیدی برحسب و دمای قله دست آمد. نحوی جدید حذف مشخصه‌­های دمایی، همان قبلی خود تبدیل می‌­شود. دزیمتر (400TLD-) :Mn2CaF بررسی گرفت. این‌­که ­شدت طبق ...

The United States has a trust responsibility to provide services to American Indians and Alaska Native (AI/AN) persons. However, a long-standing history of underfunding of the Indian Health Service (IHS) has led to significant challenges in providing services. Twentieth century laws, including the Snyder Act, Transfer Act, Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act, and Indian Healt...

Atypical features of hemicrania continua (HC), including both visual aura and side shifting, have been reported previously. However, auras and variable unilaterality have never been reported together in HC. We report two patients with side-shifting HC with aura. These patients' symptoms are unilateral headaches, visual aura, autonomic features, throbbing pain, nausea and photo/phonophobia. One ...
