This paper considers the problem of estimating the parameters of two-dimensional moving average random elds. We rst address the problem of expressing the covariance matrix of a moving average random eld, in terms of the model parameters. Assuming the random eld is Gaussian, we derive a closed form expression for the Cramer-Rao lower bound on the error variance in jointly estimating the model pa...

Linkage disequilibrium (LD) is bases of genomic selection, genomic marker imputation, marker assisted selection (MAS), quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, parentage testing and whole genome association studies. The Particular alleles at closed loci have a tendency to be co-inherited. In linked loci this pattern leads to association between alleles in population which is known as LD. Two metr...

This research is an attempt to measure the effect of alkyl tail on the visible spectra and order parameters S of some azo N-ester-1,8-naphthalimide(ANEN) disperse dyestuff. For the first time, the visible absorption spectra of two azo N-ester-1,8-naphthalimide(ANEN) dyes with identical molecular size and diverse alkyl tails were obtained in liquids and liquid crystalline solvent. Ordinary organ...

INTRODUCTION One of the most common complications of parenteral nutrition (PN) is liver dysfunction (LD). Therapeutic approaches for LD include, among others, administering cyclic parenteral nutrition (cPN), allowing some hours for metabolic rest. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of cPN in treating PN-associated LD. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective observationa...

this paper presents a biogeography-based optimization (bbo) algorithm to solve the economic loaddispatch (eld) problem with generator constraints in thermal plants. the applied method can solvethe eld problem with constraints like transmission losses, ramp rate limits, and prohibited operatingzones. biogeography is the science of the geographical distribution of biological species. the modelsof...

Considering the magneto-hydrodynamic equations in a non-relativistic multi uid framework, we study the behavior of small amplitude perturbations in cold quark matter. Magneto-hydrodynamic equations, along with a suitable equation of state for the cold quark matter, are expanded using the reductive perturbation method. It is shown that in small amplitude approximation, such a medium should be co...

objective(s): the aim of the present study was to evaluate antioxidant and methyl donor effects of betaine in cerebellum following levodopa and benserazide administration in rats. materials and methods: sprague-dawley male rats were treated with levodopa (ld), betaine (bet), levodopa plus betaine (ld/bet), levodopa plus benserazide (ld/ben), levodopa plus betaine-benserazide (ld/bet-ben), and t...

In the present paper, the use of a novel carbon paste electrode modified by 7,8-dihydroxy-3,3,6-trimethyl-3,4-dihydrodibenzo[b,d]furan-1(2H)-one (DTD) and oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (OCNTs) is described for determination of levodopa (LD), acetaminophen (AC) and tryptophan (Trp) by a simple and rapid method. At first, the electrochemical behavior of DTD is studied, then, the mediated...
