In this paper, we introduce the concept of 3-D radar signatures in a slow time-range-Doppler, fast timerange-Doppler and frequency-range-Doppler. Then, we describe how to utilize 3-D time or frequency-rangeDoppler signatures to extract information for detecting, relocating and re-focusing moving targets. Finally, we use AN/APY-6 X-band radar data for the demonstration of ground moving target de...

In a multi-study naturalistic quasi-experiment involving 269 students in a semester-long introductory philosophy course, we investigated the effect of teaching argument diagramming (AD) on students’ scores on argument analysis tasks. An argument diagram is a visual representation of the content and structure of an argument. In each study, all of the students completed preand posttests containin...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of treatment of experimental ovarian cancers with targeted cytotoxic analogs as single compounds and in combination. Targeted cytotoxic analogs of bombesin (AN-215), somatostatin (AN-238), and luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (AN-207) consisted of 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin (AN-201) linked to the respective peptide carrier. AN-238 at 200 nmol...

In searching for macromolecular antitumor antibiotics of microbial origin, 2,875 kinds of Actinomycetes culture fluids were applied to a newly developed test system which consisted of antimicrobial assay using a macromolecule permeable mutant, DNA damage assay and mutagenicity test. As a result, 78 macromolecular antibiotics were found. Among them, 15 antibiotics precipitable with ammonium sulf...

A byproduct of experiments designed to map the CMB is the recent detection of a new component of foreground galactic emission. The anomalous foreground at 10-30 GHz, unexplained by traditional emission mechanisms, correlates with 100 mum dust emission, and is thus presumably due to dust. Is the anomalous foreground ubiquitous in the Galaxy? I will present evidence obtained with the CBI and SIMB...

The non-uniqueness of geodesics joining two given points in universal Teichm uller space is proved in the previous paper 7]. The purpose of the present paper is to discuss the non-uniqueness of geodesics in any innnite-dimensional Teichm uller space. It is proved that if 1 and 2 are two extremal Beltrami diierentials belonging to a point ] of a Teichm uller space and 1 ? 2 does not belong to N-...

In this paper, we apply the fuzzy linear regression (FLR) with fuzzy intervals analysis into a neural network classi®cation model. The FLR works as a data handler and separates the data sample into two groups. By training two independent neural works with these two groups, we can better describe the distribution space of the corresponding data sample with two different functions, rather than us...

The purpose for taking up this investigation owing to the fact that now a days natural sand confirming to Indian Standards is becoming scarcer and costlier due to its non availability in time because of Law of Land, illegal dredging by sand mafia, accessibility to the river source during rainy season, non confirming with IS 383-1970. Hence the present investigation was taken up with a view to v...

A three-dimensional hybrid cellular automata (CA) model is developed to study the dynamic process of multicellular tumour spheroid (MTS) growth by introducing hypoxia as an important microenvironment factor which influences cell migration and cell phenotype expression. The model enables us to examine the effects of different hypoxic environments on the growth history of the MTS and to study the...

Background: Despite a relatively good national case reporting system in Sri Lanka, detailed maps of malaria distribution have not been publicly available. Methods: In this study, monthly records over the period 1995 – 2000 of microscopically confirmed malaria parasite positive blood film readings, at sub-district spatial resolution, were used to produce maps of malaria distribution across the i...
