High-accumulation sites are crucial for understanding the patterns and mechanisms of climate environmental change in Antarctica since they allow gaining high-resolution proxy records from firn ice. Here, we present new glacio- isotope-geochemical data at sub-annual resolution a core retrieved an ice cap on Plateau Laclavere (LCL), northern Antarctic Peninsula, covering period 2012–2015. The sig...

When linked to wearable biosensors, Intelligent Environments could play a pivotal role in continuously monitoring and securing people’s well-being. We explored the value of one such biosensor that records Electrodermal Activity (EDA) by assessing its correlation with participants’ simultaneously, continuously, self-reported arousal. EDA’s frequency amplitude ‘non-specific’ Skin Conductance Resp...

This study describes an application of a Daubechies wavelet function to analyze measured ship model data. The records of a self-propelled, flexible model of the S175 container ship moving in waves are analyzed by FFT and wavelet methods. It is shown that the high frequency component of the recorded rigid body motions can be omitted without substantially affecting the main features of the data s...

INTRODUCTION In patients with multiple sclerosis among other symptoms occur cognitive dysfunctions, which can be shown by P300 wave changes. GOAL The aim of this study was to demonstrate that patients with multiple sclerosis have reduced amplitude and prolonged latency, longer than 300 ± 10 ms. METHODS The study included group of patients with multiple sclerosis and control group. After rev...

Records of excitatory postsynaptic currents (EPSCs) are often complex, with overlapping signals that display a large range of amplitudes. Statistical analysis of the kinetics and amplitudes of such complex EPSCs is nonetheless essential to the understanding of transmitter release. We therefore developed a maximum-likelihood blind deconvolution algorithm to detect exocytotic events in complex EP...

Titanium and iron concentration data from the anoxic Cariaco Basin, off the Venezuelan coast, can be used to infer variations in the hydrological cycle over northern South America during the past 14,000 years with subdecadal resolution. Following a dry Younger Dryas, a period of increased precipitation and riverine discharge occurred during the Holocene "thermal maximum." Since approximately 54...

A detector for the case of a radar target with known Doppler and unknown complex amplitude in complex Gaussian noise with unknown parameters has been derived. The detector assumes that the noise is an Auto-Regressive (AR) process with Gaussian autocorrelation function which is a suitable model for ground clutter in most scenarios involving airborne radars. The detector estimates the unknown...

introduction: the manual and paper-based process of production and storage of medical records in iran have led to difficulties in filing and retrieval of the medical records. one of the usual solutions is using computerized medical records via electronic storage of paper-based medical records. the aim of this study was to recognize using computerized medical records in nine selected hospitals. ...

Twenty normal individuals were submitted to facial nerve electroneurography using different techniques in order to determine the most accurate to obtain the latencies and amplitudes of the compound muscle action potentials (CMAP) of the facial muscles. First of all it was determined in which muscle or muscle group highest amplitude CMAP could be recorded with the lowest variability between side...

We examine distance record setting by a random walker in the presence of a measurement error δ and additive noise γ and show that the mean number of (upper) records up to n steps still grows universally as (R(n)) ~ n(1/2) for large n for all jump densities, including Lévy distributions, and for all δ and γ. In contrast, the pace of record setting, measured by the amplitude of the n(1/2) growth,...
