Multiwavelength transmission (MWT) spectroscopy was applied to the investigation of the morphological parameters and composition of red blood cells (RBCs). The MWT spectra were quantitatively analyzed with a Mie theory based interpretation model modified to incorporate the effects of the nonsphericity and orientation of RBCs. The MWT spectra of the healthy and anemic samples were investigated f...

Long gram-based indices are experimented at NTCIR-3 WEB task. To make gram-based indices, no analyses such as morphological ones are required. 2 byte characters extracted from NTCIR-3 ‘cooked’ version of WEB task corpus. The total index size is 26 Gbyte and time to make indices is about 18 hours. Median search time per word from index is 197msec. Ranking algorithm used is based on a traditional...

Long gram-based indices are experimented at NTCIR-4 patent task. No morphological analyses are required to make gram-based indices. The ABJ and DEJ tag fields are extracted and indexed from NTCIR-4 patent corpus. Passages are extracted and indexed also. The total index size is 240Gbyte and time to make indices is about 86 hours. By merging the result of passage retrieval with the result of docu...

Long gram based indices are experimented at NTCIR-2. In making gram based indices, no analyses such as morphological ones are required. The accessing number, titles, abstracts and keywords are extracted from NTCIR-2 documents. The total index size is 1.43Gbyte and time to make indices is about 100 minutes. Average retrieval time per topic takes 21 seconds since documents are ranked in a Perl pr...

Long gram-based indices are experimented at NTCIR-3 patent task. To make gram-based indices, no analyses such as morphological ones are required. The docno, abj, clj and dej tag fields are extracted from NTCIR-3 patent corpus. The total index size is 11.4Gbyte and time to make indices is about 8.7 hours. Median search time per word from abj and dej index is 9.8msec and 91.8msec respectively. Av...

Introduction: Exploring the EEG alpha oscillations generates considerable interest because there is well known its role in cognitive and psycho emotional aspects of human life. However, till now there isn’t well determined definition what is alpha activity phenomena and which indices are characterize it. Method: This article focuses on the attempt to determine EEG alpha-activity phenomena, its ...

Pika species generally fall into two ecotypes, meadow-dwelling (burrowing) or talus-dwelling, a classification that distinguishes a suite of different ecological, behavioral, and life history traits. Despite these differences, little morphological variation has previously been documented to distinguish among ecotypes. The aim of this study was to test whether postcranial features related to bur...

The morphological characterization of the cornea using corneal topographers is a widespread clinical practice that is essential for the diagnosis of keratoconus. The current state of this non-invasive exploratory technique has evolved with the possibility of achieving a great number of measuring points of both anterior and posterior corneal surfaces, which is possible due to the development of ...
