Emotional mental imagery occurs across anxiety disorders, yet is neglected in bipolar disorder despite high anxiety comorbidity. Furthermore, a heightened susceptibility to developing intrusive mental images of stressful events in bipolar disorder and people vulnerable to it (with hypomanic experience) has been suggested. The current study assessed, prospectively, whether significant hypomanic ...

Matched samples of depressed and nondepressed cancer patients were interviewed about past life events, particularly experiences of death and illness. They identified and described any spontaneous intrusive visual memories they had experienced in the past week corresponding to these events. About one quarter reported such memories and, as predicted, the majority of intrusive memories concerned i...

In response to the governmental policy of saving energy sources and reducing CO2, and carry out the resident quality of local; this paper proposes a new method for a non-intrusive load-monitoring (NILM) system in smart home to implement the load identification of electric equipments and establish the electric demand management. Non-intrusive load-monitoring techniques were often based on power ...

three intrusive granitoid bodies from northwest saveh, central iran, are embedded in volcanic sedimentary rocks of the eocene,forming isolated small outcrops: khalkhab quartz monzodioritic units (sio2: ~52-57 wt %) to the northwest, neshveh granodioriticunits (sio2: ~62-71 wt %) to the northeast, and selijerd granodioritic units (sio2: ~63-69 wt %) to the southeast. the khalkhab unit iscomposed...

In this paper we review some of the state of the art techniques for parasitic interconnect extraction in the presence of random geometrical variations due to uncertainties in the manufacturing processes. We summarize some of the most recent development in both sampling based (non-intrusive) and expansion based (intrusive) algorithms for the extraction of both general impedance and capacitance i...

Information processing theories of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) state that intrusive images emerge due to a lack of integration of perceptual trauma representations in autobiographical memory. To test this hypothesis experimentally, participants were shown an aversive film to elicit intrusive images. After viewing, they received a recognition test for just one part of the film. The tes...

the kuh shah prospecting area is located in tertiary volcano-plutonic belt of the lut block. more than seventeen subvolcanic intermediate to acidic intrusive rocks, diorite to syenite in composition, were identified in the study area. the intrusions are related to hydrothermal alteration zones and contain argillic, propylitic, advanced argillic, silicified, quartz-sericite-pyrite, gossan and hy...

Speech captured from an in-ear microphone (IEM) under an intra-aural device is beneficial in extremely noisy environments as it maintains a relatively high signal to noise ratio. Due to its limited bandwidth, speech enhancement is required in order to obtain a more natural speech. Consequently, quick and practical measurement of speech quality is important. In this paper, we compare the perform...
