Hamiltonian mechanics of field theory can be formulated in a generally covariant and background independent manner over a finite dimensional extended configuration space. The physical symplectic structure of the theory can then be defined over a space G of three-dimensional surfaces without boundary, in the extended configuration space. These surfaces provide a preferred over-coordinatization o...

We establish functional large deviation principles (FLDPs) for waiting and departure processes in single-server queues with unlimited waiting space and the rst-in rst-out service discipline. We apply the extended contraction principle to show that these processes obey FLDPs in the function space D with one of the non-uniform Skorohod topologies whenever the arrival and service processes obey FL...

The effects of left axis shift (> -30°) on intraventricular conduction time (IVCT) were studied in 63 subjects in whom electrocardiograms before and after appearance of the left axis shift were available. Subjects with electrocardiographic evidence of left or right ventricular hypertrophy, left or right bundle branch block, myocardial infarction, pre-excitation and those receiving antiarrthythm...

We study dominant strategy implementable direct mechanisms that minimize the expected surplus from core deviations. Using incentive compatibility conditions, we formulate the core deviation miminimization problem as a calculus of variations problem and then numerically solve it for some particular cases.

Unilateral isolated Hypoglossal nerve palsy may result due to neoplasia, trauma, infections, autoimmune or vascular causes. We report a 52 year old male who presented with right hypoglossal nerve palsy and on evaluation was diagnosed to have prostatic malignancy with metastasis to the base of skull. Unilateral hypoglossal nerve palsy as the presenting feature of carcinoma prostate is rarely des...

Tasks like diagnosis, failure-modes-and-effects analysis (FMEA), and therapy proposal involve reasoning about variables and parameters deviating from some reference state. In model-based systems, one tries to capture this kind of inferences by models that describe how such deviations are emerging and propagated through a system. Several techniques and systems have been developed that address th...

The effects of left axis shift (> -30°) on intraventricular conduction time (IVCT) were studied in 63 subjects in whom electrocardiograms before and after appearance of the left axis shift were available.

Let X and Y be finite alphabets and PXY a joint distribution over them, with PX and PY representing the marginals. For any ε > 0, the set of n-length sequences x and y that are jointly typical [1] according to PXY can be represented on a bipartite graph. We present a formal definition of such a graph, known as a typicality graph, and study some of its properties.

DOS Times Vol. 12, No. 3 September, 2006 Dissociated Vertical Deviation (DVD) is one of the least understood forms of strabismus. It was first described by Stevens as double vertical strabismus, other common names given to this anomaly are, Alternating hyperphoria (Crone), Anaphoria / anatropia (Stevens), Periodic vertical squint (Anderson), Strabismus sursoadductorius (Cords). The term "Dissoc...
