We engage in Study of VIEWGLE which quickly retrieves viewing data of digital images, large-capacity images, and use an algorithm to quickly extract the similar partial image in there. In this paper, we suggest the general method using the algorithm and examine the processing time and accuracy. Our method composes 3 steps. The first step is a preprocessing for large-capacity images and stores t...

Abstract Background and Aims: Cardiovascular diseases (CADs) are the most important causes of mortality and morbidity in the world and in Iran. These diseases are not completely curable but factors affecting them are preventable. The aim of this study was investigation of CAD risk factors in four municipal regions of Kerman city. Methods: From the city po...

Self-similar shock solutions in spherically symmetric polytropic gas flows are constructed and analyzed in contexts of proto-star formation processes. Among other possible solutions, we model a similarity shock across the sonic critical curve with an inner free-fall core collapse and a simultaneous outer expansion of the extended envelope; the separation or stagnation surface between these two ...

OBJECTIVE Participants in ADVANCE were drawn from many countries. We examined whether the effects of intensive glycemic control on major outcomes in ADVANCE differ between participants from Asia, established market economies (EMEs), and eastern Europe. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS ADVANCE was a clinical trial of 11,140 patients with type 2 diabetes, lasting a median of 5 years. Demographic and...

A fundamental issue in understanding human diversity is whether or not there are regular patterns and processes involved in cultural change. Theoretical and mathematical models of cultural evolution have been developed and are increasingly being used and assessed in empirical analyses. Here, we test the hypothesis that the rates of change of features of human socio-cultural organization are gov...

This paper introduces an approach to perform segmentation of regions in computed tomography (CT) images that exhibit intra-region intensity variations and at the same time have similar intensity distributions with surrounding/adjacent regions. In this work, we adapt a feature computed from wavelet transform called wavelet energy to represent the region information. The wavelet energy is embedde...

Recent in vitro studies have shown that the periventricular subependymal zone (SEZ) of the rodent brain is capable of de novo generation of neurons and glia. There is less information available on neurogenesis in the adult human brain, and no study has shown the clonal generation of neurons and glia from in vitro-generated "neurospheres." Here we describe the isolation of proliferative stem/pro...

the inscribed monument belonged to ancient times can be regarded us a documents to study the thoughts ,ideas ,cultural and communication arts of ancient civilizations ziwiye, hasanlu, qaychi and rabat2 areas belong to iron age and mannea era, in wich many inscribed monuments have been obtained. the discovery of many inscribed monuments show the importance of these art works, stencils and were u...
