The function ncal carries out nonlinear calibration, which entails fitting concentration-response curves to sets of samples of known concentrations, also known as standard samples, and using the fitted curves to obtain point estimates and confidence intervals for the analyte concentrations in the samples of interest, also known as the unknown samples. Take Luminex (Defawe et al., 2012) as an ex...

In this paper, a 320 × 240 pixel, 80 frame/s CMOS image sensor with a low power dual correlated double sampling (CDS) scheme is presented. A novel 8-bit hold-and-go counter in each column is proposed to obtain 10-bit resolution. Furthermore, dual CDS and a configurable counter scheme are also discussed to realize efficient power reduction. With these techniques, the digital counter consumes at ...

The west coast of South Korea is characterized by a wide macrotidal area with maximum tidal range ?10 m. sea surface elevation varies the phase, which leads to significant changes in vertical structure physical, chemical, and biological properties water column, especially when interaction waves and/or freshwater sediment input from river increases. Under such conditions, it difficult carry out ...

Residual drifts after severe earthquakes interrupt serviceability of buildings. Retrofitting of such buildings is in many cases very difficult and consumes lots of time and money. Recently, there are some attempts to develop the seismic design procedures to not only satisfy life safety criteria but also lead to more economical buildings. One of these modern methods of improving seismic performa...

essence of the frame theory: When one encounters a new situation (or makes a substantial change tn one's view of a problem), one selects from memory a structure called a frame. This is a remembered framework to be adapted to fit reality by changing details as necessary. A frame is a data-structure for representing a stereotyped situation like being in a certain kind of living room or going to a...

The notion of $k$-frames was recently introduced by Gu avruc ta in Hilbert  spaces to study atomic systems with respect to a bounded linear operator. A continuous frame is a family of vectors in a Hilbert space which allows reproductions of arbitrary elements by continuous super positions. In this manuscript, we construct a continuous $k$-frame, so called c$k$-frame along with an atomic system ...
