This paper presents a real-time method for detecting pedestrians using vertical motion form two consecutives frames. We used association approach to match edge curves between consecutive images. Significant motions can be found using horizontal-vertical projection histogram. Then the pedestrian detection process is achieved in two steps. The first one searches the region of interest by using th...

We present results using WRF Version 3.1 with modifications to allow for nesting with vertical grid refinement. A new switch that controls the vertical refinement factor is added to the namelist. The program ndown is modified so that when this switch is greater than 1, a high order monotonic interpolation is activated in the vertical. The fields are rebalanced to minimize the generation of tran...

This article aims to describe Vertical Edgeless Preparation (VEP), a full-crown vertical preparation technique initially introduced by the Porta Mascarella Group in 1980s. The method is defined as “periodontally driven” because its main indication teeth with loss of periodontal attachment, and it obtain healthier tissues. work describes step-by-step procedure for performing this prosthetic indi...

We survey old and new results on the enumeration of lattice paths in the plane with a given number of turns, including the recent developments on the enumeration of nonintersecting lattice paths with a given number of turns. Motivations to consider such enumeration problems come from various elds, e.g. probability, statistics, combinatorics, and commutative algebra. We show that the appropriate...

Center of mass (COM) trajectory plays a crucial role in the analysis of human body movements. This research aimed at studying vertical and transverse COM displacements during gait on a treadmill at a given velocity and step frequency. Locomotion study was accomplished using: Vicon 250, Cardionics Treadmill 3113 and metronome Korg Ma-30. The data achieved for 12 women and 15 men aged 21-22 revea...

conclusions the castings fabricated from the ringless technique with non-precious alloy are acceptable. this investing system is useable for the fabrication of fixed restorations. results after statistical evaluation, the following results were obtained: the mean vertical margin discrepancy for conventional investing was 156.72 ± 64.67µ; for the ringless technique it was 117.3 ± 26.77µ; and for...
