Acquisition of verbal behavior is a major goal of interventions for children with developmental disabilities. We evaluated the effectiveness of manipulation of an establishing operation for functional discriminated mands. Four individuals with developmental disabilities participated in a training procedure designed to teach two separate mands for two separate preferred items. Participants were ...

We present an analysis of dynamic scaling of the Edwards-Wilkinson growth model from wavelets' perspective. Scaling function for the surface width is determined using wavelets' formalism, by computing the surface width for each wavelet scale, we show that an exact and simple form of the scaling function is obtained. These predictions are confirmed by computer simulation of a growth model descri...

Reliable and accurate identification of people is extremely important in a number of business transactions as well as access to privileged information. Automatic identification methods based on physical biometric characteristics such as fingerprint or iris can provide positive identification with a very high accuracy. However, the biometrics-based methods assume that the physical characteristic...

To mimic the human olfactory system, an electronic nose (E-nose, also known as artificial olfactory) has been proposed based on a multiple gas sensor array and pattern recognition algorithm. Detection of volatile organic components (VOCs) many potential applications in breath analysis, food quality estimation, indoor outdoor air monitoring, etc. In this study, facile single-needle electrospinni...

In this paper, the problem of mainlobe deceptive jammer suppression is solved with frequency diversity array-multiple-input multiple-output (FDA-MIMO) radar system. At modeling stage, based on FDA-MIMO radar, a quadratic phase code (QPC) applied along slow time dimension in transmit array. receiver, after decoding and principal range compensation, true false targets that are generated an identi...

The statistical method in texture image analysis was applied to area extraction of biological objects from thin section electron microscope images. Four standard estimators defined from the gray level co-occurrence matrix, called 'inverse difference moment,' 'angular second moment,' 'entropy' and 'contrast,' were especially examined using a test pattern consisting of 6 artificial textures and t...
