The American Community Survey (ACS) provides one-year (1y), three-year (3y), and fiveyear (5y) multi-year estimates (MYEs) of various demographic and economic variables for each “community,” although for small communities the 1y and 3y may not be available. These survey estimates are not truly measuring the same quantities, since they each cover different time spans. We present a metric to meas...

sam shepard is one of the foremost living american playwrights. he has always been concerned with the problem of identity, specifically the fragmented identity of man living in the postmodern era. such characterization is evident in his plays: true west, fool for love, and a lie of the mind. thus, the present article is to demonstrate the fragmented identity of lee and austin, eddie and may, an...

This paper presents the results for the verification of the S3.mp cache coherence protocol. The S3.mp protocol uses a distributed directory with limited number of pointers and hardware supported overflow handling that keeps processing nodes sharing a data block in a singly linked list. The complexity of the protocol is high and its validation is challenging because of the distributed algorithm ...

Crowd tracking generates trajectories of a set of particles for further analysis of crowd motion patterns. In this paper, we try to answer the following questions: what are the particles appropriate for crowd tracking and how to track them robustly through crowd. Different than existing approaches of computing optical flows, tracking keypoints or pedestrians, we propose to discover distinctive ...

We introduce, generate and study a family of supersymmetric displaced number states (SDNS) that can be considered generalized coherent states of the supersymmetric harmonic oscillator. The family is created from the seminal supersymmetric boson-fermion entangling annihilation operator introduced by Aragone and Zypman and later expanded by Kornbluth and Zypman. Using the momentum representation,...

Most instances of real-life language use involve discourses in which several sentences or utterances are coherently linked through the use of repeated references. Repeated reference can take many forms, and the choice of referential form has been the focus of much research in several related fields. In this article we distinguish between three main approaches: one that addresses the ‘why’ quest...

We observe some new characterizations of $n$-presented modules. Using the concepts of $(n,0)$-injectivity and $(n,0)$-flatness of modules, we also present some characterizations of right $n$-coherent rings, right $n$-hereditary rings, and right $n$-regular rings.

one of the common problems in reflective seismic records is the existence of coherent linear and random noises which cause covering of the most important parts of reflective signals; therefore, it is necessary to attenuate them by processing methods. several processing techniques have been devised for attenuation of coherent linear noises and linear radon or ?-? transform is a powerful techniqu...
