Stacking procedures with the objective of improvement of signal to noise ratio were in use before the introduction of Common reflection point stacking introduced by Mayne in 1962. But, these techniques were problematic, at times, because they used reflections from a portion of reflectors that were too large. Hence, stacking tends to obscure the very detail of reflector which is being sought. So...

Neural networks rely on convolutions to aggregate spatial information. However, spatial convolutions are expensive in terms of model size and computation, both of which grow quadratically with respect to kernel size. In this paper, we present a parameter-free, FLOP-free “shift” operation as an alternative to spatial convolutions. We fuse shifts and point-wise convolutions to construct end-to-en...

By employing nonuniform nonunitary lter bank in an image coder increased performance in terms of both theoretical and practical (PSNR) coding gains, and subjective quality can be obtained. One possible candidate is octave-band tree-structured lter banks. In this paper, an optimized perfect reconstruction octave-band three-stage tree-structured lter bank is proposed. The lter coeecients are opti...

This experiment was carried out to increase the shelf life and maintaining the quality of mango (Mangifera indica) fruits. There were two factors. Factor A: postharvest treatments with six levels (1. untreated (control), 2. washing with chlorine, 3. dipping (5 minutes) in calcium chloride (CaCl2), 4. dipping (5 minutes) in bavistin and rinse in clean water, 5. hot water treatment and 6. tap wat...

When udders were washed before milking, a post milking teat-dipping with a 5,000 mg available iodine/l iodophor induced an iodine residue of 33 to 54 micrograms l/kg in milk. The iodine contents of the first jets of milk were 1.08 to 8.27 times higher than those of average milk. However, the bulk of iodine residues in milk seemed to be an iodine transfer across teat skin to milk. From these dat...

Diurnal variations in blood pressure (BP) loss are closely associated with target organ damage and cardiovascular events. The quantity of coronary artery calcification (CAC) correlates with the atherosclerotic plaque burden, and an increased quantity indicates a substantially increased risk of cardiovascular events. This study investigated the nighttime diurnal variation in BP loss associated w...
