introduction: the shoulder is one of the most vulnerable joints for handball players.  frequent throwing movements can change its muscular strength balance and range of motion. however, the balance of strength and range of motion are important factors in injury prevention. the purpose of this study was to compare the internal-to-external ratios of strength rotation and rom rotation in the domin...

In this paper we emphasize a similarity between the Logarithmic-Type Image Processing (LTIP) model and the Naka-Rushton model of the Human Visual System (HVS). LTIP is a derivation of the Logarithmic Image Processing (LIP), which further replaces the logarithmic function with a ratio of polynomial functions. Based on this similarity, we show that it is possible to present an unifying framework ...

The exact range of the joined values of several Rényi entropies is determined. The method is based on topology with special emphasis on the orientation of the objects studied.
