For tackling expensive optimization problems (EOPs), surrogate-assisted evolutionary algorithms (SAEAs) will run the search and then select some promising solutions to be evaluated as predicted by surrogate models. Different model management criteria for models, such improvement probability, expected improvement, lower confidence bound, have shown their effectiveness when solving EOPs. In this ...

A polarographic oxygen electrode was used to measure the oxygen transmissibility of seven contact lenses of varying water content and center thickness. A similar electrode was used to measure the oxygen uptake following wear of these same contact lenses for both the open- and closed-eyelid conditions on five young healthy subjects. Linear regression revealed a strong correlation between oxygen ...

In this work we study the nature of correlations among mixed states in setup two symmetric strips. We use various tools to determine how bulk geometry could be reconstructed from boundary information. These would modular Hamiltonian and flow, OPE blocks, quantum recovery channels such as Petz map, Uhlmann holonomy Wilson lines. comment on similarities connections between these approaches our a ...

Nowadays, 3D modeling of objects can be achieved using either passive or active remote sensing systems. Active sensors, such as laser scanners, are able to directly provide precise and reliable 3D information of scanned objects. However, the derived point cloud usually lacks spectral information (especially when dealing with collected data by mobile platforms). On the other hand, passive sensor...

Cognitive maturation during adolescence is modulated by brain maturation. However, it unknown how these processes intertwine in early onset psychosis (EOP). Studies examining longitudinal changes and cognitive performance lend support for an altered development of high-order functions, which parallels progressive gray matter (GM) loss over time, particularly fronto-parietal regions. We aimed to...

statement of problem: patients affected with “early onset periodontitis” (eop), are not similar regarding their neutrophil deficiency and researches have yielded contradictory results in this field. purpose: the purpose of this study was to evaluate different aspects of neutrophils’ activities in peripheral blood of such patients, especially those affected with prepubertal periodontitis and juv...
