Discrete wavelet transforms are extensively preferred in biomedical signal processing for denoising, feature extraction, and compression. This paper presents a new denoising method based on the modeling of discrete wavelet coefficients of ECG in selected sub-bands with Kernel density estimation. The modeling provides a statistical distribution of information and noise. A Gaussian kernel with bo...

Kernel density estimators are the basic tools for density estimation in non-parametric statistics.  The k-nearest neighbor kernel estimators represent a special form of kernel density estimators, in  which  the  bandwidth  is varied depending on the location of the sample points. In this paper‎, we  initially introduce the k-nearest neighbor kernel density estimator in the random left-truncatio...

Plasmodium ovale is a common malaria parasite in Africa, but the epidemiology of P. ovale malaria is poorly known. Exposure to malaria, parasitemia, and morbidity were monitored for 6 years among the residents of a village in Senegal. The relationship between the level of P. ovale parasitemia and fever risk were analyzed, and diagnostic criteria for clinical P. ovale malaria were established. T...

In this paper, Gaussian Process Regression (GPR)-based models which use the Bayesian approach to regression analysis problem such as load forecasting (LF) are proposed. The GPR is a non-parametric kernel-based learning method having ability provide correct predictions with uncertainty in measurements. proposed model provides an hourly and monthly forecast for Australian city four Indian cities ...

Traits related to nitrogen fixation may be used as indirect selection criteria foraflatoxin resistance in peanut. The aim of this study was to investigate therelationship between N2 fixation traits and aflatoxin contamination in peanut underdifferent drought conditions. Eleven peanut genotypes were evaluated under threewater regimes for two seasons in the field. Data were observed on kernel inf...

Nowadays, Radar systems have many applications and radar imaging is one of the most important of these applications. Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) is used to form an image from moving targets. Conventional methods use Fourier transform to retrieve Doppler information. However, because of maneuvering of the target, the Doppler spectrum becomes time-varying and the image is blurred. Joi...

Tests were conducted to determine the effects of drying conditions on the rate of fissure formation after drying and the resultant mechanical strength distributions of individual rice kernels. Long-grain varieties Cypress, Drew, and Wells at 21% harvest moisture content (HMC) were dried at 40°C, 45°C, 50°C, 55°C, and 60°C and constant 17% relative humidity (RH) to 12% MC. Immediately after dryi...

Purpose. To test different peripheral arterial stents using four image reconstruction approaches with respect to lumen visualization, lumen attenuation and image noise in dual-source multidetector row CT (DSCT) in vitro. Methods and Materials. 22 stents (nitinol, steel, cobalt-alloy, tantalum, platinum alloy) were examined in a vessel phantom. All stents were imaged in axial orientation with st...
