A Bayesian approach to solve the problem of digital inverse-halftoning [1] is proposed. The inverse-halftoning is a kind of information processing defined as the inverse problem of the halftoning of grayscale images, that is, as the inverse process of representing each grayscale in terms of black and white binary dots by means of the so-called dither method [2]. In our previous study [3], we fo...

This paper is a ‘spiritual child’ of the 2005 lecture notes Kindergarten Quantum Mechanics Coecke (2005) [24], which showed how simple, pictorial extension Dirac notation allowed several quantum features to be easily expressed and derived, using language even kindergartner can understand. Central that approach was use pictures transformation rules understand derive theory computation. However, ...

In this paper, we give a modified version of the qutrit ZX-calculus, by which we represent qutrit graph states as diagrams and prove that the qutrit version of local complementation property is true if and only if the qutrit Hadamard gate H has an Euler decomposition into 4π/3-green and red rotations. This paves the way for studying the completeness of qutrit ZX-calculus for qutrit stabilizer q...

Currently, finding high capacity adsorbents with large selectivity to capture Xe is still a great challenge. In this work, nitrogen-doped porous carbons were prepared by programmable temperature carbonization of zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) and ZIF-8/xylitol composite precursors and the resultant samples are marked as Carbon-Z and Carbon-ZX, respectively. Further adsorption measurem...

O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a dor pós-operatória em 100 molares inferiores portadores de periodontite apical crônica submetidos ao preparo com o sistema Prodesing Logic. estudo observacional prospectivo incluiu cem que após exame clínico e radiográfico, realizou-se tratamento endodôntico: anestesia isolamento absoluto abertura coronária, dos canais radicularescom Sistema Logic 2...

The present study evaluated the efficacy of electronic foramen locators (EFLs) to control root canal working length during rotary instrumentation and to assess possible reliability variations of different working lengths. Forty-eight human mandibular bicuspids were randomly divided in 2 groups according to the used device, Root ZX II (RZX) and Propex II (PRO). They were further subdivided in 2 ...

Introduction: There are few researches in literature that mention the use of the apex locator in deciduous teeth and working length is obtained through radiographies. Objective: The purpose of this research was to compare the radiographic and the electronic method to obtain the working length in deciduous molars. Material and methods: Twelve molar teeth were used. The specimens in the visual me...
