Familial juvenile polyposis (FJP) is a rare autosomal dominant hereditary disorder that is characterized by the development of multiple distinct juvenile polyps in the gastrointestinal tract and an increased risk of cancer. Recently, germline mutations, including mutations in the SMAD4, BMPR1A, PTEN and, possibly, ENG genes, have been found in patients with juvenile polyps. We herein report a f...

A general uid moment in the particle coordinates is represented in terms of uid moments in modied guiding-centre coordinates with strong E × B ow derived by the phase space Lagrangian Lie-transform method [N. Miyato et al., J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 78, 104501 (2009)]. It is called the push-forward representation of the particle uid moment associated with the guiding-centre transformation. The re...

This paper describes an adaptive object storage system for mobile computing environments. The object storage system adopts the object graph framework[1], and changes the conguration of its structure according to computing environments. The power management has become an important consideration in the design of new hardware and software. The disk is a promising candidate for power management bec...

Recently, a three stage Maximum Likelihood (TSML) classier (1) has been proposed to reduce the computational requirements of the ML classication rule. Some modications are proposed here further to improve this fast algorithm. Winograd's method is proposed for use with range calculations, and is also used with Lower Triangular and Unitary canonical form approaches (2) in calculating quadratic fo...

Methods like DBSCAN are widely used in the analysis of spatial data. These methods are based on the neighborhood relations which use distance between points. However, these neighborhood relations consider to have at least a certain number of neighbors within a definite boundary. In this proposed work such a neighborhood analysis is done by using the benefits of fuzzy sets theory. Usage of fuzzy...

This paper is motivated by the discovery that an appropriate quotient SN 3 of the strongly normalising untyped 3-terms (where 3 is just a formal constant) forms a partial applicative structure with the inherent application operation. The quotient structure satises all but one of the axioms of a partial combinatory algebra (pca). We call such partial applicative structures conditionally partial ...

In the real world there are groups which composed of independent units. The conventional data envelopment analysis(DEA) model treats groups as units, ignoring the operation of individual units within each group.The current paper, investigates parallel system network approach proposed by Kao and modifies it. As modied Kao' model is more eligible to recognize ecient groups, a new ranking method i...

We have used Fowler's Observation pattern (published in [Fowler 97a]) in a project involving the maintenance of medical records of patients. The pattern has been modi ed to suit the project's particular requirements. We end up with a substantially modied model which could be regarded as an alternative solution. In this paper, we present that alternative model and the underlying rationale. We al...

in this article the nonlinear mixed volterra-fredholm integral equations are investigated by means of the modied three-dimensional block-pulse functions (m3d-bfs). this method converts the nonlinear mixed volterra-fredholm integral equations into a nonlinear system of algebraic equations. the illustrative   examples are provided to demonstrate the applicability and simplicity of our   scheme.
