This paper is concerned with the dynamic range of continuous time CMOS current mode circuits. As a representative current mode device a class AB current conveyor is examined. First, the voltage input range of the high impedance Y input is investigated. Next, the current input range of the low impedance X input is investigated. It is compared to the thermal noise in the X to Z signal path in ord...

This paper shows that the accepted expressions for the second order corrections in the parameter z to the thermal Sunyaev-Zel’dovich effect can be accurately reproduced by a simple convolution integral approach. This representation allows to separate the second order SZE corrections into two type of components. One associated to a single line broadening, directly related to the even derivative ...

Purpose To determine if metal artifact reduction can minimize magnetic susceptibility artifacts in the orbits for an eye plaque brachytherapy patient with metallic dental braces. Material and methods A 62-year-old female patient with a choroidal melanoma in the right eye received a 1.5 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) simulation for 3D eye plaque brachytherapy planning. The protocol include...

The run-length coding and the morphological representation are two classical schemes for wavelet image coding. The run-length coders have the advantage of simplicity by recording the lengths of zero-runs between significant wavelet coefficients but at the expense of yielding an inferior rate-distortion performance. The morphology-based coders, on the other hand, utilize the morphological dilati...

Recall that in Theorem 2.1, we analyzed empirical risk minimization with a finite hypothesis class F , i.e., |F| < +∞. Here as in Theorem 4.1, we will prove results for a possibly infinite hypothesis class F . We will make a generalization with respect to the previous results. In this lecture, we have z ∈ Z and we use a hypothesis (∀h ∈ F) h : Z → R. This setting is more general than for predic...

A formula is derived for the calculation of the centrifugal distortion constants r a/3ya in the case where the vibration problem is solved by using dependent internal sym metry coordinates. We have calculated the r ’s and the D's with this new formula for a model of cyclopentene with a planar carbon ring (Point group C2v)The r-values calculated are (in units 108 5 sec2 (gem2)-3): X x x x x — 5....

We compare the nonlinear matter power spectrum in real space calculated analytically from third-order perturbation theory with N-body simulations at 1 < z < 6. We find that the perturbation theory prediction agrees with the simulations to better than 1% accuracy in the weakly nonlinear regime in which the dimensionless power spectrum, (k) 1⁄4 k P(k)/2 , which approximately gives the variance of...

Parameatal urethral cysts are a rare benign condition usually seen in males. They are usually asymptomatic but may producesymptoms like difficulty in micturition, pain during intercourse, urinary retention and distortion of the urinary stream. We reporta case of parameatal urethral cyst in a 17 year old male presenting as a spherical clear fluid filled cystic lesion measuring about 0.8cm in dia...

Using the spin unrestricted Becke-3-Lee-Yang-Parr density functional, we computed the electronic structure of explicitly doped La22xSrxCuO4 (x50.125, 0.25, and 0.5!. At each doping level, an impurity hole band is formed within the undoped insulating gap. This band is well localized to CuO6 octahedra adjacent to the Sr impurities. The nature of the impurity hole is A1g in symmetry, formed primar...

Power electronic converters, especially DC/AC Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation inverters have been extending their range of use in industry because of their numerous advantages. They typically synthesize the stair –case voltage waveform (from several dc sources) which has reduced harmonic content. This paper describes the development of design, modelling and simulation of the proposed seven le...
