Abstract The coatings produced by an atmospheric plasma spray process (APSP) must be of uniform quality. However, the complexity and random introduction noise variables such as fluctuations in powder injection rate arc voltage make it difficult to control coating quality that has been shown depend upon mean values particles’ temperature speed, collectively called states (MPSs), just before they...

Abstract Choosing the Most Preferred Solution (MPS), namely a real or artificial Decision Making Unit (DMU) reflecting decision maker’s preferences over desirable structure of inputs and outputs, is particular importance in Value Efficiency Analysis (VEA). In this paper, we review various MPS choices used VEA literature propose some new, which rely respectively on relative position frontier DMU...

OBJECTIVE To assess the performance of screening for fetal trisomies 21, 18 and 13 by cell-free (cf) DNA analysis of maternal blood using a new method based on paired-end massively parallel shotgun sequencing (MPSS). METHODS This was a blinded study of plasma samples (1mL) obtained from 1000 women undergoing screening for fetal trisomies 21, 18 and 13 at 11-13 weeks' gestation. The study incl...

Abstract We add the σ -modification and low-frequency learning to model reference adaptive controller (MRAC) (Guduri et al. in SN Appl Sci 3:1–21, 2021) make it robust presence of two simultaneous bounded disturbances maintain consistent mean particles’ temperature velocity collectively called states (MPSs) when they impact substrate be coated. The MPSs affect coating quality. Even though resul...

BACKGROUND National and subnational level surveys are important for monitoring disease burden, prioritizing resource allocation, and evaluating public health policies. As mobile phone access and ownership become more common globally, mobile phone surveys (MPSs) offer an opportunity to supplement traditional public health household surveys. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to systemat...

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) are a group of hereditary diseases characterized by accumulation of Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) due to deficiency or malfunctioning of lysosomal enzymes. Difficult intubation is anticipated in these patients because of a variety of anatomical and functional abnormalities. We report the successful use of sevoflurane and laryngeal mask for airway management of a 15 year...

The trading of fidelity for scale enables approximate classical simulators such as matrix product states (MPSs) to run quantum circuits beyond exact methods. A control parameter, the so-called bond dimension χ MPSs, governs allocated computational resources and output fidelity. Here, we characterize optimization algorithm by expectation value cost function that it seeks minimize find follows a ...
