چکیده

We consider the weighted version of the Tron game on graphs where two players, Alice and Bob, each build their own path by claiming one vertex at a time, starting with Alice. The vertices carry non-negative weights that sum up to 1 and either player tries to claim a path with larger total weight than the opponent. We show that if the graph is a tree then Alice can always ensure to get at most 1/5 less than Bob, and that there exist trees where Bob can ensure to get at least 1/5 more than Alice.

Diffusion-weighted MR imaging (DWI) using TRacking Only Navigator echo (TRON): initial clinical evaluation and comparison to respiratory triggered and free breathing DWI

Introduction Diffusion-weighted MR imaging (DWI) is an emerging technique for the detection and characterization of liver lesions [1]. Two types of non-breathhold DWI are used in clinical practice: respiratory triggering (RT) and free breathing (FB). However, RT DWI suffers from a prolonged examination time, while FB DWI may suffer from image blurring [1]. Recently, the limitations of both RT a...

Diffusion-weighted MR imaging of the liver at 3.0 Tesla using TRacking Only Navigator echo (TRON): a feasibility study.

PURPOSE To assess the feasibility of TRacking Only Navigator echo (TRON) for diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) of the liver at 3.0T. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ten volunteers underwent TRON, respiratory triggered, and free breathing DWI of the liver at 3.0 Tesla (T). Scan times were measured. Image sharpness, degree of stair-step and stripe artifacts for the three methods were as...

TRON: Process-Specific File Protection for the UNIX Operating System

The file protection mechanism provided in UNIX is insufficient for current computing environments. While the UNIX file protection system attempts to protect users from attacks by other users, it does not directly address the agents of destruction— executing processes. As computing environments become more interconnected and interdependent, there is increasing pressure and opportunity for users ...

Playing with Kruskal: Algorithms for Morphological Trees in Edge-Weighted Graphs

The goal of this paper is to provide linear or quasi-linear algorithms for producing some of the various trees used in mathemetical morphology, in particular the trees corresponding to hierarchies of watershed cuts and hierarchies of constrained connectivity. A specific binary tree, corresponding to an ordered version of the edges of the minimum spanning tree, is the key structure in this study...

Laccases (p-diphenol oxidase, EC 1.10.3.2) are blue multicopper oxidases that catalyze the reduction of dioxygen to water, with a concomitant oxidation of small organic substrates. Since the description at the end of the nineteenth century of a factor catalyzing the rapid hardening of the latex of the Japanese lacquer trees (Rhus sp.) exposed to air laccases from different origins (plants, fung...
