CONTEXT Moebius syndrome is a rare congenital condition that results in bilateral facial paralysis. Several studies have reported social interaction and adjustment problems in people with Moebius syndrome and other facial movement disorders, presumably resulting from lack of facial expression. OBJECTIVE To determine whether adults with Moebius syndrome experience increased anxiety and depress...

In this article, we will show the complex inversion formula for the inversion of the L2-transform and also some applications of the L2, and Post Widder transforms for solving singular integral equation with trigonometric kernel. Finally, we obtained analytic solution for a partial differential equation with non-constant coefficients.

An inversion formula was developed by Bukhgeim and Kazantsev for attenuated fan-beam projections [Russian Academy of Science Siberian Branch: The Sobolev Institute of Mathematics (2002)]. The inversion formula was obtained by relating the attenuated fan-beam projections to unattenuated fan-beam projections and by trickily processing the unattenuated fan-beam projections. We show in this paper t...

Moebius syndrome is an extremely rare disorder. Only approximately few hundred cases have been reported in literature. In a nationwide survey reported in 2003, the prevalence of this syndrome was at least 0.002% of births for the years 1996 to 1998. The definition and diagnostic criteria for Moebius syndrome vary among authors. In most studies, it is defined as congenital facial weakness combin...

INTRODUCTION Moebius syndrome is a rare congenital disorder characterized by congenital facial paralysis and impairment of ocular abduction. The absence of facial expression in people with Moebius syndrome may impair social interaction. The present study aims at replicating prior findings on psychological adjustment in children and adolescents with Moebius syndrome and providing first data on q...

The theory of evidence (ToE) [16] extends classical probability theory through the notion of belief function (b.f.), a mathematical entity which independently assigns probability values to sets of possibilities rather than single events. A belief function b : 2 → [0, 1] on a finite set (“frame”) Θ has the form b(A) = ∑ B⊆A mb(B) where mb : 2 Θ → [0, 1], is called “basic probability assignment” ...

The conjugacy classes of the nite general linear and unitary groups are used to de ne probability measures on the set of all partitions of all natural numbers. Probabilistic algorithms for growing random partitions according to these measures are obtained. These algorithms are applied to prove group theoretic results which are typically proved by techniques such as character theory and Moebius ...
