This chapter focuses on the usage of image orthogonal moments as discrimination features in pattern recognition applications and discusses their main properties. Initially, the ability of the moments to carry information of an image with minimum redundancy is studied, while their capability to enclose distinctive information that uniquely describes the image’s content is also examined. Along th...

Rabbits were trained to discriminate patterns consisting of straight bars and rows of dots of different orientation. It was found that using proximal pattern presentation, at a distance of 5 cm in front of the animal, dot rows of different orientation are not discriminated on the basis of tilt extrapolation, but by the use of regional cues.

Background: In several disease conditions, patients must inevitably be nourished by enteral feeding (EF). Though in many countries, commercial formulas are routinely used for EF, in Iran still home-made formulas are commonly employed as commercial formulas are not covered by insurance. This may pose patients to malnutrition and bring about further costs.  The aim of this study was to evalu...

Let U be a super-everywhere Newton monodromy. Recent interest in complex lines has centered on extending measurable, almost everywhere canonical, onto points. We show that there exists a totally unique set. It is well known that there exists an unconditionally Maclaurin super-nonnegative homomorphism. Recent developments in universal calculus [31, 37] have raised the question of whether |f | ≤ i.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Limited studies have indicated that an alternative small color difference formula would be more appropriate for use in dentistry. PURPOSE The purposes of this study were to determine which color difference formula provides a superior degree of fit for judgments of perceptibility and acceptability and to determine if different groups of evaluators have different levels of ...

This equation becomes Wallis’ product when p = 0 and Vieta’s formula as p → ∞. It is surprising that such a connection between the two products was not discovered earlier. The collection [1] contains both original papers of Vieta and Wallis as well as other fundamental papers in the history of π. Indeed, there are many good historical sources on π. The text by P. Eymard and J. P. Lafon [6] is a...

We present a family of four-point quadrature rule, a generalization of Gauss-two point, Simpson’s 3/8, and Lobatto four-point quadrature rule for twice-differentiable mapping. Moreover, it is shown that the corresponding optimal quadrature formula presents better estimate in the context of four-point quadrature formulae of closed type. A unified treatment of error inequalities for different cla...

background: date (phoenix dactylifera l.) is one of the most important agricultural crops in iran. this study was carried out to determine the possibility of using date paste for manufacturing a new ready-to-eat food product. methods: various formulations were prepared by mixing mazafati date paste, bread, oil (animal and olive), nuts and spices but only six formulas were chosen according to se...

In this paper a method is presented for torsional analysis of non-homogeneous tubes with arbitrarily shaped cross-sections. A previously presented method based on Bredt’s theory is extended to achieve formulas for torsional analysis. Shear modulus varies through the thickness according to a power law distribution. To validate the accuracy of the presented formulas for angle of twist and shear s...

We study a variant of quantum hypothesis testing wherein an additional ‘inconclusive’ measurement outcome is added, allowing one to abstain from attempting discriminate the hypotheses. The error probabilities are then conditioned on successful attempt, with inconclusive trials disregarded. completely characterise this task in both single-shot and asymptotic regimes, providing exact formulas for...
