background: nowadays, the health work decision makers need to analyze a huge amount of data and consider many conflicting evaluation criteria and sub-criteria. therefore, an ergonomic evaluation in the work environment in order to the control occupational disorders is considered as the multi criteria decision making (mcdm) problem. in this study, the ergonomic risks factors, which may influence...

Fully polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) has the advantage for working at all time and all weather compared with optical remote sensing. It can provide four channel data, including HH, HV, VH, and VV, which is usually called sinclair matrix. The sinclair matrix can be used to describe the relative pure targets. Concerning to the distributed targets, it is necessary to use coherence ...

Coherence plays a very important role in Grover search algorithm (GSA). In this paper, we define the normalization coherence N(C), where C is measurement. virtue of constraint large N and Shannon's maximum entropy principle, surprising complementary relationship between success probability GSA obtained. Namely, P_s(t)+N(C(t))\simeq 1, terms relative l_1 norm coherence, t number iterations GSA. ...

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the EGM method and the behavior of a solid particle suspended in a twodimensional rectangular cavity due to conjugate natural convection. A thermal lattice Boltzmann BGK model is implemented to simulate the two dimensional natural convection and the particle phase was modeled using the Lagrangian–Lagrangian approach where the solid particles are treat...

Introduction: Paranormal beliefs are defined as believing in extrasensory perception, precognition, witchcraft, and telekinesis, magical thinking, psychokinesis, superstitions. Previous studies corroborate that executive brain functions underpin paranormal beliefs. To test causal hypotheses, neurophysiological studies of brain activity are required. Method: A sample of 20 students (10 females,...

Synthetic aperture radar polarimetry (PolSAR) and polarimetric decomposition techniques have proven to be useful tools for wetland mapping. In this study we classify reed belts and monitor their phenological changes at a natural lake in northeastern Germany using dual-co-polarized (HH, VV) TerraSAR-X time series. The time series comprises 19 images, acquired between August 2014 and May 2015, in...

Content adaptation is a well-known technique to help portable devices present Web pages as smoothly as desktops do. Because of limited I/O and weak transmission capability, adaptations are usually performed by either transcoding or resizing multimedia components. In this paper, we propose a novel semantic coherence-retained content adaptation approach, namely functionality sense-based content a...
