Shah-Waardenburg syndrome (SWS) is a neurocristopathy and is characterized by Hirschsprung's disease (HD), deafness, and depigmentation of hairs, skin, and iris. Is a very rare congenital disorder with variable clinical expression. This report describes a 4-day-old male newborn with Waardenburg's syndrome associated with aganglionosis of the colon and terminal ileum, and review the relevant lit...

[1] To assess the effects of increased atmospheric N input on N availability in ombrotrophic peatlands, the relative concentrations of dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) to dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) were measured in bog waters along a natural gradient of atmospheric N deposition. Six European bogs were selected, spanning a range of chronic atmospheric N inputs from 0.2 to 2.0 g m 2 yr . ...

In this paper, we consider minimizing the Mumford-Shah functional over two-valued functions in the plane. Existence of minimizers is straightforward and we show that the edge set of any zninimizer is a finite union of C curves.

We propose a novel image segmentation model, called the Semi-Supervised Subspace Mumford-Shah model, which incorporates subspace clustering techniques into a Mumford-Shah model to solve texture segmentation problems. While the natural unsupervised approach to learn a feature subspace can easily be trapped in a local solution, we propose a novel semi-supervised optimization algorithm that makes ...

The preservation properties of Gieseker stability and semistability under the Fourier transform of Mukai are discussed. A fundamental lemma is proved describing the degree of sheaves whose Fourier transforms are concentrated in degrees 0 or 2. This is used to prove results about the behaviour of both Gieseker stability and Mumford-Takemoto stability under the Fourier transform.

the shah-kuh granitoid has intruded in the triassic–jurassic, pelitic and psammitic low-grade metamorphic rocks of the ne lutblock, in central iran. cordierite porphyroblasts are common in the southern pelitic sediments, but are rare in the northern psammiticrocks, in the contact aureole. deformation fabrics in the contact aureole are well-preserved within the cordierite porphyroblasts. therela...

We present an estimation-theoretic approach to curve evolution for the Mumford-Shah problem. By viewing an active contour as the set of discontinuities in the Mumford-Shah problem, we may use the corresponding functional to determine gradient descent evolution equations to deform the active contour. In each gradient descent step, we solve a corresponding optimal estimation problem, connecting t...

harsh experiences of the ww1, encouraged many think-tanks and politicians to contain differences and prevent war through founding an international organization, through which global spanners are removed and peace and security are reinforced worldwide. the idea to set up “league of nations” came as peace negotiations was underway in the palace of versailles in france. iran was encroached directl...

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has one of the poorest prognoses of all malignancy types. To improve the survival of patients with PDAC, the development of novel anticancer agents is warranted. Riproximin (Rpx) is a newly identified plant lectin, which was isolated from Ximenia americana. The ribosome inactivating protein of type II exhibits potent anticancer activity as recently demons...
