The purpose of the present research is to investigate the effective channels of the monetary transmission mechanism in Iran. To do so, we devised a New Keynesian Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium Model. In our model, the different types of nominal rigidities are introduced beside all the related structural equations, which are extracted and linearized around a steady state point. Furthermo...

This paper presents a robust algorithm for automated registration of images related by rigid-body transformations. This algorithm uses a new region-based similarity metric , which enables accurate registration of images of large contrast diierences. Region segmentation required by the metric is accomplished using a multiscale segmentation algorithm , and minimization of this metric is done usin...
