As the demand for multimedia grows, the development of information retrieval systems including information about music is of increasing concern. Radio stations and music TV channels hold archives of millions of music tapes. Gigabytes of music files are also spread over the web. To automate searching and organizing the music files based on their genre is a challenging task. In this report, we pr...

Objective. To determine the accuracy of the Broselow Tape (BT) versions 2007 and 2011 in estimating weight among pediatric population. Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted at King Fahad Medical City and six schools across Riyadh province on 1-143-month-old children. BT 2007 and 2011 estimated weights were recorded. Both tapes via the child's height produce an estimated weight, which w...

The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy of Kinesiology Taping (KT) for treating breast cancer-related lymphedema. Sixty-five women with unilateral stage II and III lymphedema were randomly grouped into the KT group (K-tapes, n = 20), the Quasi KT group (quasi K-tapes, n = 22), or the MCT group (multilayered compression therapy group, n = 23). Skin care, 45 min pneumatic compression ther...

Commercial lead zirconate titanate (PZT) perovskite powders were used to fabricate ceramic tape and then sintered by microwave and conventional methods. Both dielectric and piezoelectric properties of PZT ceramic tapes were studied in terms of sintering process. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) show the PZT perovskite phase with smaller grain size and dens...

Enantiopure dipeptide-derived 1,3,5-triazepan-2,6-diones and form H-bonded 3(1) helical molecular tapes with P chirality in the solid state; in the case of , these columnar tapes self-assemble through aromatic-aromatic interactions to give hollow tubular structures.

We study a generalized version of reversal bounded Turing machines where, apart from several tapes on which the number of head reversals is bounded by r(n), there are several further tapes on which head reversals remain unrestricted, but size is bounded by s(n) (where n denotes the input length). Recently [9,10], such machines were introduced as a formalization of a computation model that restr...

UNLABELLED The three-dimensional configuration of mid-urethral sling tapes is difficult to demonstrate in traditional anatomical dissections or imaging studies. The aim of this study was to test the utility of a novel technique using mesh tapes to assess spatial differences between the in-out and out-in transobturator mid-urethral slings. Two independent surgeons performed their usual transobtu...

an important property of electromagnetic fields, which arises from the interaction between fields and chiral molecules, is called optical chirality. by enhancing this field property, while maintaining constant input power, we are able to increase absorption of circularly polarized light by chiral molecules of a certain handedness. this enhancement is achieved through the use of achiral plasmoni...

In the title compound, C6H12O4.H2O, 1,4/2,5-cyclohexanetetrol and water molecules are seen to possess twofold symmetry. All four hydroxyl groups of the tetrol participate in extensive intermolecular O-H...O hydrogen bonding to form molecular tapes propagating along the a axis. Translationally related tapes along the c axis are held together by four coordinated water molecules.
