Transient expression of coding and non-coding regions of PVY confer resistance to virus infection
One of the most efficient mechanisms by which plants protect themselves from invading virusesis the specific RNA-dependent silencing pathway termed post-transcriptional gene silencing(PTGS). In this mechanism, resistance to a virus is engineered through the expression of asegment of the virus genomein transgenic plants. Potato VirusY (PVY) is one of the mostdamaging viruses of potato, infecting...
متن کاملVisual Pattern Image Coding by a Morphological Approach (RESEARCH NOTE)
This paper presents an improvement of the Visual Pattern image coding (VPIC) scheme presented by Chen and Bovik in [2] and [3]. The patterns in this improved scheme are defined by morphological operations and classified by absolute error minimization. The improved scheme identifies more uniform blocks and reduces the noise effect. Therefore, it improves the compression ratio and image quality i...
متن کاملCoding and reimbursement issues for the radiologist.
Radiologists are dependent on the proper execution of a complex administrative chain of disease and diagnosis coding and procedural coding to be properly reimbursed for the examinations they perform. The radiologist bears the ultimate responsibility for the appropriateness of these codes. However, many practicing radiologists are unaware of the critical link between the two coding systems and t...
متن کاملProcedure coding in anaesthesia
Procedure coding in anaesthesia has taken great steps forward over the last decade, alongside the increased use of computers in medicine. Anaesthesia lagged behind other medical specialities in developing coding systems in the 1980s, and very little information about the activities of anaesthetists was collected. Large and detailed coding systems for medicine have now been developed, and anaest...
متن کاملFace Recognition using an Affine Sparse Coding approach
Sparse coding is an unsupervised method which learns a set of over-complete bases to represent data such as image and video. Sparse coding has increasing attraction for image classification applications in recent years. But in the cases where we have some similar images from different classes, such as face recognition applications, different images may be classified into the same class, and hen...
