aim: universities can overcome unstable funds as a result of changes or diminished governmental financial resources by relying on benevolent funding. however, the optimal use of this depends on recognition of their probable requirements and potential deviations that despite its evident nature is usually unnoticed. methodology: due to the relatively successful experience of imam sadiq (a.s.) uni...

Latent symmetry of a component of a composite object is defined as that symmetry of a subunit of the component which is not a symmetry of the component but which is a symmetry of the composite. This is illustrated by a geometrical example. A group theoretical procedure is given to determine latent symmetry and is applied to examples.

The popularity of video sharing platforms such as Youtube has prompted the need for the development of efficient techniques for multimedia identification. Content fingerprinting is a promising solution for this problem, whereby a short “fingerprint” that captures robust and unique characteristics of a signal is computed from each multimedia document. This fingerprint is then compared with a dat...

Introduction: In magnetic resonance imaging a tradeoff exists between resolution and the signal to noise ratio (SNR). With any imaging protocol, different fractions of the available scan time could be used to acquire data at higher spatial frequencies (achieving higher resolution) and to perform signal averaging (obtaining greater SNR). A potential way to establish the optimal balance between r...

The theoretical framework for a next-to-leading order QCD analysis of the spin-dependent parton densities ∆f(x,Q) of the longitudinally polarized photon and of its structure function g 1 (x,Q ) is reviewed in some detail. Special emphasis is given to the specific features of different factorization schemes. Two conceivable scenarios for the polarized parton densities ∆f(x,Q) are introduced, whi...
