Abstract We characterize conjugacy classes of isometries odd prime order in unimodular ${\mathbb {Z}}$-lattices. This is applied to give a complete classification non-symplectic automorphisms the known deformation types irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds up and birational conjugacy.

In this study, a holistic energy, economic and environmental assessment was performed on prosumer-based district heating system, including scenarios with varying size, retrofitting stages system configurations. A modeling framework built which comprises thermal network design simulation model; building energy demand model for districts; supply storage technology models that allow assessing sola...

The ability of nature inspired search algorithms to efficiently handle combinatorial problems and their successful implementation in many fields of engineering and applied sciences has led to the development of new, improved algorithms. In this paper, an improved harmony search algorithm (IHS) is presented, while a holistic approach in solving the problem of post-disaster infrastructure managem...

Most Earth observational satellites are not able to acquire high spatial and spectral resolution data simultaneously because of design or observational constraints. To overcome such limitations, image fusion techniques are use. Image fusion is process combine different satellite images on a pixel by pixel basis to produce fused images of higher value. The value adding is meant in terms of infor...

Colorectal cancer is a great concern for the American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) community, as incidence and mortality rates remain high and screening rates stay low. We conducted interviews with community leaders (n=13) and with providers from the Indian Health Service (IHS), tribal clinics, and urban safety-net clinics (n=17) in Northeast Kansas and the Kansas City Metro Area to determine t...

There would seem to be many students who really want to learn, who have a huge appetite to learn, but who constantly struggle with their work. They just have not been prepared to be independent learners who can think and solve problems. A recent but promising area of applying IHS (Intelligent Hybrid Systems) is focused on intelligent tutoring systems. These intelligent tutoring systems, based o...

This paper mainly addresses the problem of multipolar Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and colorful optical images fusion by regarding them as multichannel images. Based on traditional wavelet-based and model-based fusion algorithms, the paper proposes a multi-channel image fusion algorithm based on a multi-multiturbo iterative method. Multi-multiframe is proposed to represent the original image ...
