In the continuous-time domain, Maximum-Likelihood (ML) detection of a chirp signal in white Gaussian noise can be done via the line-integral transform of the classical Wigner distribution. The line-integral transform is known variously as the Hough transform and the Radon transform. For discrete-time signals, the Wigner-type distribution defined by Claasen and Mecklenbrauker has become popular ...

We compared carcass and meat quality of pigs from the same sire line and two different dam lines, one that included Chinese breeds and one that did not. Line A consisted of 1/4 Landrace, 1/2 Large White, 1/8 Chinese breeds (Meishan, Fengjing, Jiaxing), and 1/8 Large White, Duroc and Pietrain, and line B consisted of 1/2 Large White and 1/2 Pietrain. The animals (N = 144) were slaughtered at a l...

white been line wa8592-1 was first introduced in iran through the yield trail nurseries received fron ciat in 1991. in observation nurseries carried out during 1992 and 1993 cropping seasons, ten bean populations were evaluated for yield and other characteristics, and 60 lines were selected. preliminary and advanced yield trails carried out for six years (1995-2000) in four locations khomein, e...

A patient aged 58 years, presented with 2 months history of an erythematous, painful and bleeding nodule, after labial herpes (A). The dermoscopic examination confirms the diagnosis of a pyogenic granuloma (B). The dermoscopic criteria are: the reddish homogeneous area (green line) whose color varied from completely red to red with whitish zones which is corresponded to proliferating vessels. A...

Context. We report the first discovery of argon in hot evolved stars and white dwarfs. We have identified the Ar  1063.55 Å line in some of the hottest known (Teff = 95 000−110 000 K) central stars of planetary nebulae and (pre-) white dwarfs of various spectral type. Aims. We determine the argon abundance and compare it to theoretical predictions from stellar evolution theory as well as fro...

The objective of the study was to examine the activity of different biologically active proteins in geese egg whites. The experiment was performed in 8 replicates on eggs collected from Italian White geese, Polish wild geese (Gegawa) and their cross line. Analyses of activities of cystatin, lysozyme and serine proteinases inhibitors in fresh geese egg whites were carried out. Moreover, trypsin ...

The paper presents the results of study into composition and properties milk in black and- white dairy cows improved using black-and-white Holsteins different lines. It has been found that Vis Ideal line produce with a high casein phosphorus content, Poseidon give content whey proteins, Annas Adema lactose calcium content. Milk from is most suitable for production high-quality products such as ...

When oblique rows of black and white dots drifted horizontally across a mid-grey surround, the perceived direction of motion was shifted to be almost parallel to the dotted lines and was often nearly orthogonal to the real motion. The reason is that the black/white contrast signals between adjacent dots along the length of the line are stronger than black/grey or white/grey contrast signals acr...
