Background Granisetron is a first-generation 5-HT3-receptor antagonist that has shown efficacy in preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). In this randomized double-blind parallel-group clinical trial, we assessed the efficacy of generic granisetron versus Kytril®, in the prevention of PONV in patients undergoing general anesthesia for gynaecological surgeries. Method One hundred an...

this contrastive study, in the first place, examined the generic structure and, in the second place, explored the face theory proposed by arundale (2006) in 140 doctoral dissertation acknowledgments written by native speakers of persian (nsp) and native speakers of english (nse) in 7 disciplines representing soft sciences to find out what discourse genre components writers employ to articulate ...

Deep networks have been successfully applied to visual tracking by learning a generic representation offline from numerous training images. However the offline training is time-consuming and the learned generic representation may be less discriminative for tracking specific objects. In this paper we present that, even without learning, simple convolutional networks can be powerful enough to dev...

Hybrids as various resources have valuable importance in tree breeding. Today, improvement programs by using poplar and willows and their hybrids play basic role in supplying wood and decreasing pressure on natural forests. This research was carried out in order to study inter-generic hybridization possibility between Salix aegyptica and Populus caspica species from Salicaceae to achieve new hy...

Abstract—We propose an Euclidean geometric representation for the classical detection theory. The proposed representation is so generic that can be employed to almost all communication problems. The hypotheses and observations are mapped into R in such a way that a posteriori probability of an hypothesis given an observation decreases exponentially with the square of the Euclidean distance betw...

The Core Plan Representation (Pease 1997) is a schema for the representation of plan information which is independent of any particular method of plan construction. It has been developed as an ontology and implemented as an object oriented design. Now in its second phase, the generic plan design has been specialized for several areas of military planning – the Warplan. This specialization and i...

A properly encapsulated data representation can be revised without affecting the correctness of client programs and extensions but encapsulation is difficult to achieve for heap based structures and object-oriented (OO) programs with reentrant callbacks. Building on a discipline that uses assertions and auxiliary fields to manage invariants and transferrable ownership, we give a rule for modula...

Generic modules have been introduced by Crawley-Boevey in order to provide a better understanding of nite dimensional algebras of tame representation type. In fact he has shown that the generic modules correspond to the one-parameter families of indecomposable nite dimensional modules over a tame algebra 5]. The Second Brauer-Thrall Conjecture provides another reason to study generic modules be...

A combination of information retrieval (RI) tools and structural recognition (SR) tools are used for the automatic construction of a generic model of documents. The automatic construction takes as input a structured database of the documents which is converted into SGML, giving a logical representation of their content. the RS tools are applied to the postscript representation of the documents ...

This paper presents a generic technique for converting any 3D object into an implicit representation, based on multiresolution implicit grids. A specific hash table structure is proposed, which permits compact storage as well as easy hierarchical evaluation of the object. Finally, a tessellator for these multiresolution implicit objects is presented, that takes advantage of the hash table struc...
