The most significant complication of pregnancy is recurrent miscarriage. Numerous factors have been described as associations with recurrent wastage such as: uterine abnormalities, immunological factors, endocrinologic imbalance and chromosomal defects. Cytogenetic evaluation of couples with recurrent pregnancy losses is performed on the basis of G-banding technique only after other possible et...

Hyperbolic balance laws have steady state solutions in which the flux gradients are nonzero but are exactly balanced by the source terms. In our earlier work [31–33], we designed high order well-balanced schemes to a class of hyperbolic systems with separable source terms. In this paper, we present a different approach to the same purpose: designing high order well-balanced finite volume weight...

Background Quantitative myocardial T1 mapping shows promise for assessment of various cardiomyopathies. Most available sequences are generally acquired within a breath-hold using a balanced SSFP (bSSFP) imaging readout. However, the signal obtained from a bSSFP imaging readout is T2 dependent, sensitive to magnetization transfer and has increased susceptibility to the B0 field inhomogeneity lea...

As their pace of change accelerates as a result of technological and environmental factors, organizations are faced with challenges in measuring performance. The Balanced Scorecard (BSC) enables managers to translate an organization’s strategic goals into both financial and non-financial performance measures (Kaplan & Norton, 2001). Since being initially proposed by Robert Kaplan and David Nort...

Among the techniques of video processing, video summarization is a promising approach to process the multimedia content. In this paper we present a novel summarization algorithm, Balanced Audio Video Maximal Marginal Relevance (Balanced AV-MMR or BAV-MMR), for multi-video summarization based on both audio and visual information. Balanced AVMMR exploits the balance between audio information and ...

Today's competitive conditions have caused the projects to be carried out in the least possible time with limited resources. Therefore, managing and scheduling a project is a necessity for the project. The timing of a project is to specify a sequence of times for a series of related activities. According to their priority and their latency, so that between the time the project is completed and ...
