BACKGROUND Despite years of experience with vitamin K antagonist-associated bleeding events, there is still no evidence to help identify the optimal treatment with prothrombin complex concentrates. Variable dosing and fixed dose strategies are being used. In this observational prospective two-cohort study, we aimed to assess the non-inferiority of a low fixed PCC dose (1,040 IU Factor IX) compa...

Reversible logic synthesis is important for the design of conventional logic systems such as adiabatic logic and also for quantum logic systems since all quantum logic gates are necessarily reversible in nature. A framework is presented that improves reversible logic synthesis by employing a dynamically determined variable order for quantum multiple-valued decision diagrams (QMDD). We demonstra...

We investigate ways to extend offsetting based on skeletal structures beyond the well-known constant-radius and mitered offsets supported by Voronoi diagrams and straight skeletons for which the orthogonal distance of offset elements to their input elements is uniform. We introduce a new geometric structure called the variableradius Voronoi diagram, which supports the computation of variable-ra...

We propose a novel method of reduction for binary-based decision diagrams (DD) exploiting the similarities between Boolean functions. Conventional methods are able to remove redundant parts DD that adhere (or represent) identical structures. The proposed approach tries take advantage not only but also equivalent diagram, which produce results after change in variable ordering. Basic types DD, l...

Descriptive and predictive analytics enable the automotive industry to be pro-active in its management of warranty repairs and the substantial unknown costs associated with future claims. Understanding what makes their customers most dissatisfied can assist manufacturers to take pro-active steps towards restoring satisfaction and increasing the likelihood of customers making future purchases. P...

in taleghan, olivine basalt-basaltic andesite dykes as part of tertiary mamgmatic activities in central and western alborz zone, intruded into both karaj formation and late eocene-oligocene volcanic rocks. these dykes have similar geochemical characteristic which suggest that they are originated from a common source. on the primitive mantle normalized spider diagram, the dykes are characterized...

Compiling Bayesian networks has proven an effective approach for inference that can utilize both global and local network structure. In this paper, we define a new method of compiling based on variable elimination (VE) and Algebraic Decision Diagrams (ADDs). The approach is important for the following reasons. First, it exploits local structure much more effectively than previous techniques bas...

Given a point set the Voronoi diagram associates to each point all the locations in a plane that are closer to it . This diagram is often used in spatial analysis to divide an area among points. In the ordinary Voronoi diagram the points are treated as equals and the division is done in a purely geometrical way. A weighted Voronoi diagram is defined as an extension of the original diagram. The ...
