one of the problems associated with adaptive fir filters in the identification of systems with long impulse responses, is their excessive computational complexity. recently a new kind of adaptive filters, based on three-level clipping of the input signal has been presented for reduction of their computational complexity. in this paper, a theoretical analysis of the steady-state misalignment of ...

Background: It is well known that the majority of good grade (WFNS I and II) patients who undergo microsurgical clipping achieve a favorable outcome, but still a number of patients who are independent before surgery face unfavorable outcomes signifying the impact of microsurgical clipping. The aim of this study was to quantify the risk of dependency in patients who had no previous neurological ...

conclusions although propofol remains a standard agent for such types of surgeries, lidocaine proved equally effective and coupled with its low cost, minimal side effects and omission of other hypnotic agents was a plausible induction agent and a maintenance drug in the selected cases. case presentation lidocaine was applied as the sole anaesthetic for induction and maintenance during aneurysm ...

In this experiment 144 Hy-line (W36) laying hens, 65 to 77 weeks of age were separated into 4 treatments with 3 replicates (12 birds per replicate) in a completely randomized design experiment. The grass clipping wastes incorporated into a complete formulated layer diet, consisting on a corn and soybean based diet, were 0, 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5% in 1 to 4 experimental groups. The results showed that...

Alntract: Temporary Occlusion of the Middle Cerebral Artery in the Monkey: Clinical and Pathological Observations • The right middle cerebral artery (MCA) was exposed in monkeys via a retro-orbital microsurgical approach. In 43 animals a temporary occlusive clip was placed on the MCA origin for one to 24 hours. In 20 animals, the origin of the MCA was permanently occluded. Clinical evaluation o...

In this paper, we propose a low complexity clipping method to reduce the peak power of OFDM signals. The proposed clipping method exploits the conventional square clipping, which clips signal according to the amplitude in I/Q-channels separately, to avoid obtaining a real amplitude of each sample which costs relatively high computational complexities. By combining the square clipping and phase ...

Pubescent wheatgrass (Agropyron trichophorum (Link) Richt.) is growing in semiarid regions of Iran at altitude of 500 to 2000 m. Among different grasses growing in Iran, A. trichophorum is relatively resistant to grazing and defoliation as compared to other species of Agropyron genus which are dominant in the most summer rangelands. In Emam Gholi protected summer rang...

We present an algorithm for end to end declipping, which includes clipping detection and the replacement of clipped samples. To detect regions of clipping, we analyze the signal’s amplitude histogram and the shape of the signal in the time-domain. The sample replacement algorithm uses a two-pass approach: short regions of clipping are replaced in the time-domain and long regions of clipping are...

Clipping (i.e., harvesting aboveground plant biomass) is common in agriculture and for bioenergy production. However, microbial responses to clipping in the context of climate warming are poorly understood. We investigated the interactive effects of grassland warming and clipping on soil properties and plant and microbial communities, in particular, on microbial functional genes. Clipping alone...
