introduction: current thermal cycling units fail to simulate the drinking behaviors, and oral balancing temperature. they cannot also simulate other oral conditions such as drink coloring, and chemicals like tea, coffee, carbonated and noncarbonated, citrus juices as well as alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks and also saliva and milk itself. the main objective of this study is to introduce the d...

In developing a simulator for a new processor architecture, it often is not clear whether it is more efficient to write a new simulator or to modify an existing simulator. Writing a new simulator forces the processor architect to develop or adapt all of the related software tools. However, Modifying an existing simulator and related tools, which are usually not well-documented, can be time-cons...

To minimize renal radiation in abdomical radiotherapy, shielding of the kidneys is essential. IVP-simulator is used as an standard method. In this study, we used 99mTc-DMSA to localize and shield the Kidneys and we compared this method with IVP-simulator. The size of the kidneys was proven to be larger as compared with IVP method. The mean of the overlap percentage was 81.88 in right and ...

This paper proposes a virtual driving system for enhancing efficient driving style. We compared fuel economies and levels of consumable wear on three driving simulation test (none, visual, visual+auditory). The test results show that higher fuel economy can be achieved and consumable wear be reduced when they received feedback from the proposed system compared to driving without eco-driving tra...

We present an automatic mortality prediction scheme based on the unstructured textual content of clinical notes. Proposing a convolutional document embedding approach, our empirical investigation using the MIMIC-III intensive care database shows significant performance gains compared to previously employed methods such as latent topic distributions or generic doc2vec embeddings. These improveme...
