The detection rate for compact binary mergers has grown as the sensitivity of global network ground based gravitational wave detectors improved, now reaching stage where robust automation analyses is essential. Automated low-latency algorithms have been developed that send out alerts when candidate signals are detected. include sky maps to facilitate electromagnetic follow-up observations, alon...

Many classical image processing tasks can be realized as evaluations of a boolean function over subsets of an image. For instance, the simplicity test used in 3D thinning requires examining the 26 neighbors of each voxel and computing a single boolean function of these inputs. In this article, we show how Binary Decision Diagrams can be used to produce automatically very efficient and compact c...

Medical researchers may be interested in disease processes‎  ‎that are not‎ ‎directly observable‎. ‎Imperfect diagnostic‎ ‎tests may be used repeatedly to monitor the‎ ‎condition of a patient in the absence of a gold standard.‎ ‎We consider parameter identifiability and estimability‎ ‎in a Markov model for alternating binary longitudinal ‎responses that may be misclassified.‎ ‎Exactly ...

experimental results of dielectric investigations for binary mixtures of 2, 3-butanediol, 2, 3-bd, in2-ethyl-1-hexanol, 2eh, were reported for various mole fractions and temperatures (298.2-308.2) kand they were used to calculate dielectric parameters such as kirkwood correlation factor, excesspermittivity and bruggeman parameter. these parameters were used to carry out temperaturedependent die...

The influence of the unlike Lennard-Jones (LJ) parameters on vapor-liquid equilibria of mixtures is investigated and the performance of eleven combining rules is assessed. In the first part of the work, the influence of the unlike LJ size and energy parameter on vapor pressure, bubble density and dew point composition is systematically studied for the mixtures CO+C2H6 and N2+C3H6, respectively....
