Molecular ultrasound imaging is based on the detection of contrast agents (microbubbles) targeted to disease specific receptors in the vasculature. By quantifying the amount of the adherent microbubbles a change in the expression of these receptors and thus the disease development can be assessed. Quantification of microbubbles from ultrasound images in vivo was thus far mainly performed by ana...

We consider the problem of change-point estimation of the instantaneous phase of an observed time series. Such change points, or phase shifts, can be markers of information transfer in complex systems; their analysis occurring in geology, biology and physics, but most notably in neuroscience. We develop two non-parametric approaches to this problem: the cumulative summation (CUSUM) and phase de...

in this paper first we try to analysis the behavior ofthe soas in the optical networks and then have proposed anumerical simple model to simulate the behavior of thesemiconductor optical amplifiers. after that by employing thismodel as inline amplifier for a dwdm optical system, we havesimulated the transmission of 10 channels with bit rate 10 gb/sup to distance 3970 km with rz-dpsk modulation ...

A CMOS phase-shift oscillator that uses a phase shift in the conduction of heat is proposed. The oscillator consists of an inverting ampli ̄er and a feedback thermal ̄lter that are integrated on a silicon chip. The thermal ̄lter consists of a polysilicon heater and a MOSFET thermosensor separated from each other by a SiO2 heat-conducting layer. 1 An input signal for the ̄lter travels from the heate...

In recent years, much attention has been paid to the behavior of passive microwave sea ice concentration (SIC) products for marginal ice zones. Based on the definition of ice edges from ship observations, we identified pseudo-ship observations (PSO) and generated PSO ice edges from twelve cloud-free moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) images. Two SIC products of the advanced m...

The main aim of this paper is the utilization of discrete chaotic Lozi map based chaos number generator to enhance the performance of PSO algorithm. This paper presents the results of research, in whichchaos enhanced PSO algorithm is used to design an optimal PID controller for DC motor system. Obtained results are compared with other non-heuristic and heuristic methods.
