In this paper, we study two important metrics in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) time-varying Rayleigh flat fading channels. One is the eigen-mode, and the other is the instantaneous mutual information (IMI). Their secondorder statistics, such as the correlation coefficient, level crossing rate (LCR), and average fade/outage duration, are investigated, assuming a general nonisotropic scat...

background: magnetic resonance imaging (mri) has improved the diagnosis and management of patients with multiple sclerosis (ms). montreal cognitive assessment (moca) is a brief, sensitive test that has been recommended by national institute of neurological diseases and stroke and canadian stroke network (ninds-csn) as a reliable tool to detect mild cognitive impairments. this study aimed to eva...

In this paper, we consider correlation coefficient, rank correlation coefficient and cosine similarity measures for evaluating similarity between Homo sapiens and monkeys. We used DNA chromosomes of genome wide genes to determine the correlation between the chromosomal content and evolutionary relationship. The similarity among the H. sapiens and monkeys is measured for a total of 210 chromosom...

Invasive Streptococcus suis (S. suis) infections in pigs are often associated with serotypes 2 and 9. Mucosal sites of healthy pigs can be colonized with these serotypes, often multiple serotypes per pig. To unravel the contribution of these serotypes in pathogenesis and epidemiology, simultaneous quantification of serotypes is needed. A quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) targeting cps2J (seroty...
