Multi-dimensional time series is playing an increasingly important role in the “big data” era, one noticeable representative being the pervasive trajectory data.Numerous applications ofmulti-dimensional time series all require to find similar time series of a given one, and regarding this purpose, Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) is the most widely used distance measure. Due to the high computation o...

Objective(s): In the present study,a new series of 6-methoxy-2-arylquinoline analogues was designed and synthesized as P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors using quinine and flavones as the lead compounds. Materials and Methods: The cytotoxic activity of the synthesized compounds was evaluated against two human cancer cell lines including EPG85-257RDB, multidrug-resistant gastric carcinoma cells (P...

A compact and sharp rejection UWB microstrip bandpass filter is developed using left handed metamaterials. For realizing a backward-wave propagation medium, two split ring resonator (CSRR) in the back substrate side and also one series capacitor etched in the host line, are used to produce a negative effective ε and μ, simultaneously. Moreover, in the proposed structure, two doublets parallel c...

Background Down syndrome screening at first-trimester may cause a higher false positive rate in pregnant patients who have undergone assisted reproductive technologies (ART). Combining the second largest series of biophysical and biochemical tests in the first trimester of pregnancy after ART is mentioned in few studies. MaterialsAndMethods Ghisoni et al explored that NT measurement between ART...

background: venoplasty and stenting is a minimally invasive therapy that can be used for patients with deep venous insufficiency in the lower extremities. this study aimed at investigating the effect of venoplasty and venous stenting in patients with chronic venous insufficiency in the lower limbs. methods : this prospective case-series study recruited patients with chronic deep venous insuffic...

the overall aim of the present study was to estimate the time series of agricultural employment in the gilan province during 1976-2011, and modeling and forecasting employment using artificial neural networks for years 2012-2019. for this purpose, employment series calculated by interpolation and input variables selected based on previous theoretical and empirical research. finally, number of a...

For entire functions, the notions of their growth indicators such as Ritt order are classical in complex analysis. But the concepts of relative Ritt order of entire functions and as well as their technical advantages of not comparing with the growths of $exp exp z$ are not at all known to the researchers of this area. Therefore the studies of the growths of entire functions in the light of thei...
