The implementation details of factorizing the 3 × 4 projection matrices of linear cameras into their left matrix factors and the 4 × 4 homogeneous central(also parallel for infinite center cases) projection factors are presented in this work. Any full row rank 3× 4 real matrix can be factorized into such basic matrices which will be called LC factors. A further extension to multiple view midpoi...

The sustainability of irrigated agriculture in India is threatened by waterlogging, soil salinity, and alkalinity. To reverse declining agricultural productivity, a combination of surface and subsurface drainage, supplemented by improved irrigation management, has been identi®ed as the most appropriate strategy. But subsurface drainage for salinity control is costly. Therefore, its bene®ts in t...

chronic subdural hematoma (csdh) is a curable entity frequently encountered by neurosurgeons. the present study was conducted to explore expert opinion and common practice in iran. besides, a review of randomized clinical trials in literature was performed. a questionnaire including six questions discussing major aspects of practice on csdh, with multiple choices was designed. a pilot study was...

Temporal Data Mining is a rapidly evolving area of research that is at the intersection of several disciplines, including statistics, temporal pattern recognition, temporal databases, optimisation, visualisation, high-performance computing, and parallel computing. This paper is first intended to serve as an overview of the temporal data mining in research and applications.

The Architectural Patterns for Parallel Programming is a collection of patterns related with a method for developing the coordination of parallel software systems. These architectural patterns take as input information (a) the available parallel hardware platform, (b) the parallel programming language of this platform, and (c) the analysis of the problem to solve, in terms of an algorithm and d...

morphometric characteristics of anticlines can play an important role in the exploration of oil resources. the purpose of this research is to evaluate the effect of geomorphology on the exploration of oil resources in oil-rich bankol and oil-less danehkhoshk anticlines by means of geomorphological indices. to achieve the purpose of this study, topographic maps at a scale of 1:50000 and geologic...

Models of landscape evolution or hydrological processes typically depend on the accurate determination of upslope drainage area from digital elevation data, but such calculations can be very computationally demanding when applied to high-resolution topographic data. To overcome this limitation, we propose calculating drainage area in an implicit, iterative manner using linear solvers. The basis...

Variations of the gonadal vein involve especial interest in general, vascular, and renal transplant surgery [1]. The testicular drainage originates at the upper pole of the testis, through the pampiniform plexus, which travels alongside the spermatic cord. The origin of the testicular vein, on both sides, lies at the deep inguinal ring, following a cephalic retroperitoneal path along the Psoas ...

BACKGROUND Lymphatic drainage to multiple basins (MLBD) is frequently observed in patients with primary melanoma located in the trunk. Conflicting data regarding the prognostic impact of MLBD are reported. OBJECTIVE AND METHODS We reviewed our case series of 352 patients with trunk melanoma to evaluate the pattern of basin drainage and to analyse whether different basin drainages may have dif...
