Variance ratios were estimated for random within-herd effects of age at test day and lactation stage, on test-day yield and somatic cell score to determine whether including these effects would improve the accuracy of estimation. Test-day data starting with 1990 calvings for the entire US Jersey population and Holsteins from California, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Texas were analyzed. Test-day...

INTRODUCTION Postural deformities are commonly acquired disorders that occur throughout the life. The purpose of this research was to determine and compare the frequency of scoliosis disorder and anthropometric characteristics of normal versus the disordered Students. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a cross-sectional study that was performed on 1416 girls and boys of elementary school students...

In this paper, we improve an existing scheme of detecting the copy-move forgery. The main difference between our method and prior arts is that we seek spatial correlation in the test image. Our method has 4 stages. In the first stage, we segment test image. In second stage, we find the suspicious pairs and group them into suspicious groups by their spatial correlation, and then find a transform...

Nowadays, Analog to Digital Converters (ADCs) play an important role in many applications. Pipelined Analog-to-Digital Converters (PADCs) are extremely useful in high-speed applications. Testing PADC circuits became essential. In this paper, a low-cost test is developed for a one stage PADC. It is shown that only three DC test values are capable to detect all catastrophic faults in the stage by...
