The experiment was conducted using Randomized Complete Block Design with Row Column arrangement and three replications. Grain yield, phenological and other traits were recorded. The Residual Maximum Likelihood (REML) combined analysis of variance across locations showed very highly significant (P

Numerous different implementations for H.264/AVC variable block size motion estimation have been proposed in the recent years to make this computationally challenging task more feasible for mobile devices with video encoding support. The variable block size motion estimation problem defined by the standard is complex and multidimensional, offering a wide variety of possibilities for efficient i...

The use of frames and matching pursuits for signal representation are receiving increased attention due to their perceived potential in various signal processing applications. Good design algorithms for block oriented frames have recently been published. Viewing these block oriented frames as generalizations of block oriented transforms, it is natural to seek corresponding generalizations of cr...

In this paper I take the view, common among statisticians, that a design is an allocation of a set Γ of n treatments to a set Ω of plots: see [2]. (The word plot does not necessarily denote a piece of ground: it is used for any type of experimental unit.) Thus the design may be thought of as a function f from Ω onto Γ: plot ω receives treatment γ if f(ω) = γ. If Ω is partitioned into blocks the...

This paper studies conditions for highdimensional inference when the set of observations is given by a linear combination of a small number of groups of columns of a design matrix, termed the “block-sparse” case. In this regard, it first specifies conditions on the design matrix under which most of its block submatrices are well conditioned. It then leverages this result for average-case analys...

The block design task, a standardized test of nonverbal reasoning, is often used to characterize atypical patterns of cognition in individuals with developmental or neurological conditions. Many studies suggest that, in addition to looking at quantitative differences in block design speed or accuracy, observing qualitative differences in individuals’ problem-solving strategies can provide valua...

Block-design fMRI responses include sustained components present for the duration of each task block as well as transient components at the beginning and end of each block. Almost all prior block-design fMRI studies have focused on the sustained response components while the transient responses at block transitions have been largely ignored. These transients, therefore, remain poorly characteri...

The classification of a block-transitive designs is an important subject on algebraic combinatorics. With the aid of MATLAB software, using the classification theorem of 3-homogeneous permutation groups, we look at the classification problem of block-transitive 7–(v, k, 3) design and prove our main theorem: If the automorphism group of a 7–(v, k, 3) design is block-transitive, then it is neithe...
