The QR-algorithm is a renowned method for computing all eigenvalues of an arbitrary matrix. A preliminary unitary similarity transformation to Hessenberg form is indispensible for keeping the computational complexity of the QRalgorithm applied on the resulting Hessenberg matrix under control. The unitary factor Q in the QR-factorization of the Hessenberg matrix H = QR is composed of n − 1 rotat...

QR-32 is a regressive murine fibrosarcoma cell clone which cannot grow when they are transplanted in mice; QRsP-11 is a progressive malignant tumor cell clone derived from QR-32 which shows strong tumorigenicity. A recent study showed there to be differentially expressed up-regulated and down-regulated proteins in these cells, which were identified by proteomic differential display analyses by ...

Quercetin (QR) is a strong antioxidant and has been shown to reduce oxidative stress in the long-term treatment of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes in animal models. Antioxidants have significant effects on spermatogenesis, sperm biology and oxidative stress, and changes in antioxidant capacity are considered to be involved in the pathogenesis of chronic diabetes mellitus. The present stud...

In this paper an approach to adaptive IIR ltering based on a pseudo-linear regression and applying an iterative QR matrix decomposition is developed. In simulations, the algorithm has shown a high stability and excellent convergence properties. The derivation of the IIR-QR adaptive lter is straightforward and the computational complexity of the algorithm is comparable to the FIR-QR adaptive alg...

A QR based technique is presented for estimating the approximate numerical rank and corresponding signal subspace of a matrix together with the subspace projection of the least squares weights. Theoretical difficulties associated with conventional QR factorisation are overcome by applying the technique of RowZeroing QR to the covariance matrix. Thresholding is simplified compared with the use o...

We propose a new parallelization scheme for the Hessenberg double shift QR algorithm. Our scheme allows software pipelining and communication latency hiding, and gives almost perfect load balance. An asymptotic parallelizing overhead analysis shows that our scheme attains the best possible scalability of the double shift QR algorithm, and that the overheads are less than the multishift algorith...

We consider the Givens QR factorization of banded Hessenberg-Toeplitz matrices of large order and relatively small bandwidth. We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the R factor and the Givens rotation when the order of the matrix goes to infinity, and present some interesting convergence properties. These properties can lead to savings in the computation of the exact QR factorization and gi...

Technology that combines a 2D BarCode with a digital watermark is a topic of great interest in current research related to the security field. This paper presents a new digital watermark method for the QR Code(Quick Response Code). An invisible watermark is embedded in the QR Code image using watermark technology, and while this is being done, the DCT intermediate frequency coefficients are com...

Single subband model for InAs/GaAs quantum rings (QR), with the electron effective mass depending on the confinement energy by the Kane formula is applied for numerical simulation of the capacitance-voltage (CV) spectroscopy experiments. Geometrical parameters chosen for the model are based on the fabrication process for InAs/GaAs QD/QR. The 3D confined energy problem is solved numerically by t...

Twenty-seven selenium compounds and sixteen structurally related organosulfur compounds were tested for quinone reductase (QR) and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) inducing activity in murine hepatoma (Hepa 1c1c7) cells. Sixteen selenium compounds were able to double QR activity, and seven of them also doubled GST activity. The nine most potent compounds, dimethyl diselenide, 2,5-diphenyl- selen...
