In this paper we introduce a new definition of the first non-abelian cohomology of topological groups.  We relate the cohomology of a normal subgroup $N$ of a topological group $G$ and the quotient $G/N$ to the cohomology of $G$. We get the inflation-restriction exact sequence. Also, we obtain a seven-term exact cohomology sequence up to dimension 2. We give an interpretation of the first non-a...

Compression allows scalable storage of large amounts of data and alleviates the I/O bottleneck for dataintensive applications. Over the years, a large number of compression algorithms have been developed to support various data types. Our goal is to develop a generic tool that helps quickly and accurately decide what compression scheme(s) best match the constraints and expectations of users wit...

The transient hyperaemic response in the middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity on the release of brief compression of the ipsilateral common carotid artery has been validated as an indicator of cerebral autoregulation. We evaluated, in three stages, the effect of experimental factors such as duration of compression of the common carotid artery and magnitude of the decrease in blood flow ve...

We introduce and discuss shape based models for finding the best interpolation data in compression of images with noise. The aim is to reconstruct missing regions by means minimizing fitting term $L^2$-norm between their reconstructed counterparts. analyse proposed framework $\Gamma$-convergence from two different points view. First, we consider a continuous stationary PDE model get pointwise i...

For memory to be efficient and useful during recall, problem-solving, and planning, retrieval must be compressed in time. Evidence from rodents suggests that neural compression during replay of spatial memories varies widely, with a range of compression ratios reported from 6:1 to 64:1. Anecdotal evidence suggests that similar compression occurs during mental navigation in humans: we recall how...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors for new symptomatic vertebral compression fractures after vertebroplasty at the thoracolumbar junction. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of 53 patients treated with percutaneous vertebroplasty at the thoracolumbar junction (T12, L1). The follow-up period was 15-27 months. The occurr...

objective(s):the aim of this study was to improve flowability and compressibility characteristics of starch to use as a suitable excipient in direct compression tabletting. quasi-emulsion solvent diffusion was used as a crystal modification method. materials and methods: corn starch was dissolved in hydrochloric acid at 80˚c and then ethanol as a non-solvent was added with lowering temperature ...

hereby we report a patient with thalassemia major having extradural cord compression at t3-t9 levels due to a mass of extramedullary hematopoiesis (emh) tissue, whose treatment was successful with hypertransfusion therapy alone. the patient was a 23-year-old man who had not received regular blood transfusion since two years before admission. he suffered from paraparesis with a history of progre...

This chapter introduces a visualization method specifically tailored to the class of tensor fields with properties similar to stress and strain tensors. Such tensor fields play an important role in many application areas such as structure mechanics or solid state physics. The presented technique is a global method that represents the physical meaning of these tensor fields with their central fe...
