A feedforward active noise control system includes the secondary path filter for compensation of acoustic coupling between loudspeaker and reference microphone. In ordinary systems, the filter is designed to be a pre-set type, without any system identification for it, because the adaptation of its filter taps without any additional noise is difficult. This paper introduces a new identification ...

abstractbackground: an electron beam generated x-ray spectrum consists of characteristic x-ray and continuous bermsstrahlung. the aim of this research is calculating and comparing x-ray spectra for different target filter of mammograms. materials and methods: monte carlo is a very powerful tool to simulate a series of different target-filter assembly in order to calculate the x-ray spectra. mcn...

The ordered subsets EM (OSEM) algorithm has enjoyed considerable interest for emission image reconstruction due to its acceleration of the original EM algorithm and ease of programming. The transmission EM reconstruction algorithm converges very slowly and is not used in practice, particularly because there are faster simultaneous update algorithms that converge much faster. We introduce such a...

Multisensor data fusion has found widespread application in industry. The objective of data fusion is to provide an improved estimate of a state from a set of data provided by different sensors. Among the various multisensor approaches, Kalman filtering is one of the most significant. Reliability of the data provided by the sensor is a key factor for the integrity of the fusion process. Kalman ...

A finite lattice is interval dismantlable if it can be partitioned into an ideal and a filter, each of which can be partitioned into an ideal and a filter, etc., until you reach 1-element lattices. In this note, we find a quasi-equational basis for the pseudoquasivariety of interval dismantlable lattices, and show that there are infinitely many minimal interval non-dismantlable lattices. Define...

A very low voltage 9th order linear phase baseband switched capacitor (SC) filter has been designed to be used as part of a cellular GSM (Global System Mobile) receiver. A Gaussian-to-6dB filter of the order of seven is chosen and a second order function is added to reduce the group delay variations around. The filter uses a fully differential topology to increase the dynamic range and reduce t...

The ordered subsets EM (OSEM) algorithm has enjoyed considerable interest for emission image reconstruction due to its acceleration of the original EM algorithm and ease of programming. The transmission EM reconstruction algorithm converges very slowly and is not used in practice. In this paper, we introduce a simultaneous update algorithm called separable paraboloidal surrogates (SPS) that con...

Celiac disease (CD) is a systemic immune-mediated disorder caused by the dietary gluten in individuals who are genetically susceptible to the disease. In fact, CD is a T cell-mediated immune disease in which gluten-derived peptides activate the lamina propria CD4+ Teff cells, and these T-cell subsets can cause the intestinal tissue damages. Also, there are additional subsets of CD4+ T cells wit...

Background: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting large and medium arteries. CD4+ T cells are known to play a role in the progression of the disease. CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ natural Treg (nTreg) cells seem to have a protective role in the disease and their reduction in acute coronary syndrome is recently shown. Objective: To investigate the frequency of nTreg subsets in the pe...
