The ability of an implanted ear to integrate multiple pulses, as measured by the slopes of detection threshold level (T level) versus pulse rate functions, may reflect cochlear health in the cochlea, as suggested by previous animal studies (Kang et al., 2010; Pfingst et al., 2011). In the current study, we examined the slopes of T level versus pulse rate functions in human subjects with cochlea...

A network may have weak signals and severe degree heterogeneity, be very sparse in one occurrence but dense another. SCORE (Ann. Statist. 43, 57–89, 2015) is a recent approach to community detection. It accommodates heterogeneity adaptive different levels of sparsity, its performance for networks with unclear. In this paper, we show that broad class settings where allow signals, wide range achi...

One of the biggest reasons for road accidents is curvy lanes and blind turns. Even one of the biggest hurdles for new autonomous vehicles is to detect curvy lanes, multiple lanes and lanes with a lot of discontinuity and noise. This paper presents very efficient and advanced algorithm for detecting curves having desired slopes (especially for detecting curvy lanes in real time) and detection of...

The operating quality of reclamation drainage and irrigation systems depends on the condition their main elements. elements are canals with various profiles, ranging from rectangular to parabolic. most widespread in land a trapezoidal profile. At same time, it is possible note that natural production characteristics quite diverse, this issue especially relevant for geometric parameters canals. ...
