Collection of synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) data along a circular track and forming a circular SAS (CSAS) image has several benefits over traditional stripmap SAS: the area of interest is observed from all aspect angles giving a better perception; the resolution in the image increases and shadow zones are avoided. Navigation requirements however, become even more stringent than for rectilinear...

AbstructEstimation of 3-D information from 2-D image coordinates is a fundamental problem both in machine vision and computer vision. Circular features are the most common quadratic-curved features that have been addressed for 3-D location estimation. In this paper, a closed-form analytical solution to the problem of 3-D location estimation of circular features is presented. Two different cases...

background: accurate small radiation field dosimetry is essential in modern radiotherapy techniques such as stereotactic radiosurgery (srs) and intensity modulated radiotherapy (imrt). precise measurement of dosimetric parameters such as beam profile, percentage depth doses and output factor of these beams are complicated due to the electron disequilibrium and the steep dose gradients. in the p...

In this paper, a numerical solution has been developed for hollow circular cylinders made up of orthotropic material which is subjected to twist using micro polar theory. The effect of twisting moment and material internal length on hollow thick-walled circular cylinder made up of micro polar orthotropic material is investigated. Finite difference method has been used to exhibit the influence o...

1. Firstly, an entropy based feature detector is used to select regions of interest in the image. Once the regions of interest are obtained (which are of varying scales ‘scale’ being the radius of the circular region of interest), each circular feature is mapped to a square of size 11 by 11. Thus, the feature-extractor ends up with 121-dimensional features. The goal is to build proper probabili...

SGT1 is an evolutionarily conserved eukaryotic protein involved in many important cellular processes. In plants, SGT1 is involved in resistance to disease. In a low ionic strength environment, the SGT1 protein tends to form dimers. The protein consists of three structurally independent domains (the tetratricopeptide repeats domain (TPR), the CHORD- and SGT1-containing domain (CS), and the SGT1-...

Archaeal dual-guide box C/D small nucleolar RNA-like RNAs (sRNAs) bind three core proteins in sequential order at both terminal box C/D and internal C'/D' motifs to assemble two ribonuclear protein (RNP) complexes active in guiding nucleotide methylation. Experiments have investigated the process of box C/D sRNP assembly and the resultant changes in sRNA structure or "remodeling" as a consequen...
