This paper presents a systematical and progressive appraisal of the technology since inception AC-AC conversion, which is seen to be an indispensable vital for advancement Solid State Transformer (SST) in distribution system. Special attention given concepts/topologies architecture SST, DC-DC conversion devices isolation facet, inversion gadget bridge arrangement their integration development e...

Objective Transcatheter, transarterial aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is rapidly emerging as a promising new treatment option for patients with severe symptomatic aortic valve stenosis who are considered at high or prohibitive surgical risk. Envisioning real-time MR guidance of the TAVI procedure, the objective of this study was the systematical in vitro evaluation of the MR imaging character...

Laser Beam Melting as a member of Additive Manufacturing processes allows the fabrication of three-dimensional metallic parts with almost unlimited geometrical complexity and very good mechanical properties. However, its potential in areas of application such as aerospace or medicine has not yet been exploited due to the lack of process stability and quality management. For that reason samples ...

Association rules have been widely used in gene expression data analysis. However, there is no systematical way to select interesting rules from the millions of rules generated from high dimensional gene expression data. In this study, a kernel density estimation based measurement is proposed to evaluate the interestingness of the association rules. Several pruning strategies are also devised t...

Point-of-interest (POI) recommendation is an important service to Location-Based Social Networks (LBSNs) that can benefit both users and businesses. In recent years, a number of POI recommender systems have been proposed, but there is still a lack of systematical comparison thereof. In this paper, we provide an allaround evaluation of 12 state-of-the-art POI recommendation models. From the eval...

We present for the first time a computational model for the reduplication of the Vietnamese language. Reduplication is a popular phenomenon of Vietnamese in which reduplicative words are created by the combination of multiple syllables whose phonics are similar. We first give a systematical study of Vietnamese reduplicative words, bringing into focus clear principles for the formation of a larg...

The domain of biometrics lacks of a systematical approach for classifying biometric signatures for biometric authentication, detection, and reaction systems. This paper presents a first approach to fill this gap. Outlining the general authentication process and analyzing the meaning of the term signature from selected sciences, a definition of the term biometric signature as (bin|n-)ary coded r...

Large reduction in emissions of anthropogenic pollutants in a mega city during the week-long holiday gives an opportunity to investigate how the urban air quality reacts to reductions in emission. This study conducted a systematical examination of the “Spring Festival effect” over three consecutive winters in Shenzhen with a population of greater than ten million, and the difference in the conc...

We perform systematical studies on transverse-mass spectra of π 0 , η, ω, φ, K + and K − mesons for C + C, Ni + Ni, Au + Au collisions at SIS energies within the HSD transport approach. We find that the m T-spectra sensitively reflect the in-medium properties of the mesons. The 'bare mass' scenario leads to a general scaling behaviour for the meson m T-spectra when including a mass shift due to...
