The effects of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) and indomethacin (IDM) on the release of several pituitary hormones from the rat pituitary were investigated in vitro. An addition of 2 microng/ml of PGE1 to the medium elicited the release of growth hormone (GH) and prolactin, but not of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). Although the addition of 1 microng/ml of IDM alone resulted in...

Copyright held by authors, 2015 Abstract We argue that there is a shift in how drivers perceive vehicles, moving from vehicles as tools towards vehicles as intelligent agents. Here, we present recent and ongoing research that explores the consequences for human interaction with increasingly intelligent (whether semior fully autonomous) vehicles. We highlight in particular that the driver’s perc...

Background: Infants of diabetic mothers (IDM) is a critical issue in pediatrics, which is regarded as a major risk factor for birth trauma, respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), birth asphyxia, transient tachypnea of the newborn (TTN) and jaundice. IDM is also a risk factor for microvascular (e.g., ocular and renal complications) and macrovascular complications (e.g., cerebrovascular accident, a...

The proliferation of diverse and heterogeneous information appliances has produced a new set of problems, challenges, and opportunities. We propose to build a development infrastructure for information automation that combines the synergistic use of sensors, standard hardware interfaces, intelligent software, and adaptive algorithms in order to rapidly produce intelligent, networked information...

In this research paper, we introduce Lane Tracking by Using navigation,positioning and tracking filter i.e dealing to make the hybrid of two filter.This two filters are “Kalman filter and Particle filter”. Presented approach gives us idea about perfect and efficient and clear view tracking. Model is designed to make a tracking near real time. This idea further introduces the lane detection whic...

Choosing an option increases a person's preference for that option. This phenomenon, called choice-based learning (CBL), has been investigated separately in the contexts of internally guided decision-making (IDM, e.g., preference judgment), for which no objectively correct answer exists, and externally guided decision making (EDM, e.g., perceptual decision making), for which one objectively cor...

This paper addresses two concerns with the state of the art in network revenue management with dependent demands. The first concern is that the basic attraction model (BAM), of which the multinomial model (MNL) is a special case, may overestimate recapture in certain cases. The second concern is that the choice based deterministic linear program (CBLP), currently in use to derive heuristics for...

In recent years, vehicle recognition has become an important application in intelligent traffic monitoring and management. Vehicle analysis is an essential component in many intelligent applications, such as automatic toll collection, driver assistance systems, self-guided vehicles, intelligent parking systems, and traffic statistics (vehicle count, speed, and flow). The main goal of our study ...

Security issues in cloud computing are shown to be the biggest obstacle that could lower the wide benefits of the cloud systems. This obstacle may be strengthened when cloud services are accessed by mobile devices. Mobile devices could be easily lost or stolen and hence, they are easy to compromise. Additionally, mobile users tend to store access credentials, passwords and other Personal Identi...
