The study was carried out to assess the effects of the Root and Tuber Expansion Programe (RTEP) on the livelihood of project beneficiaries in Kwara State, Nigeria. A 3-stage sampling technique was adopted for the study, selecting a total of 80 cassava processors from two Agricultural Development Programe (ADP) zones in the State. Structured interview schedule was used as instrument to elicit pr...

conclusion vr reconstruction for both single-direction images and sushi using dti25 raw data provides excellent 3d displays of the peripheral nerves in the wrist region. sushi post-processing is a useful denoising tool because it automatically reduces the majority of isotropic object noise. results single-direction vr reconstruction clearly showed the nerves for both dti6 and dti25 but with obv...

background: the second processing cycle for adding the artificial teeth to heat-polymerized acrylic resin denture bases may result in dimensional changes of the denture bases. the aim of thisstudy was to evaluate the dimensional changes of the heat-polymerized acrylic resin denture bases with one and two-cycle processing methods. materials and methods: a metal edentulous maxillary arch was used...

Signal processing operations on two-dimensional fields of data can be cast into a vector space formulation. This formulation often leads to a simplified analysis of two-dimensional processing systems and to the discovery of more efficient computational algorithms. This paper considers the general representation of two-dimensional fields as vectors and discusses common types of operators on thes...

This paper addresses the implementation aspects of highly modular two-dimensional (2-D) digital filters. The idea of matrix decomposition 111 is used to provide increased parallelism and regularity. Four different structures namely the transversal, the distributed arithmetic, the stored product and the systolic array, are considered. For comparison purposes, the direct implementation is include...

This study provides a multidimensional analysis of sustainable socio-economic development and its challenges in the rural areas of Ukraine. The methodology of realization of sustainable development’s conceptual provisions was created. The advantages of using indicative assessment at the regional level were justified. The methodical approach how to define the indicators of sustainable developmen...
