In this paper, we focus on the design of low complexity hybrid analog/digital precoding and diversity combining in the millimeter wave multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. Firstly, by exploiting the sparseness property of the millimeter wave in the angular domain, we propose a spatial lobes division (SLD) to group the total paths of the millimeter wave channel into several spatial lob...

Tabled logic programming is receiving increasing attention in our community. It avoids many of the shortcomings of SLD(NF) execution and provides a more exible and often extremely eecient execution mechanism for logic programs. In particular, tabled execution of logic programs terminates more often than execution based on SLD-resolution. So, if a program can be proven to terminate under SLD-res...

The purpose of this study was to assess the knowledge and attitude of primary school teachers in Tehran (Iran) towards attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and specific learning disability (SLD). This study was conducted on 205 primary school teachers in Tehran. Using multi-stage sampling, 25 schools were selected randomly. The selected teachers completed a self-report questionnaire ...

Multi-SLD resolution is a variant of SLD resolution based on a simple idea: Let the allowed constraints be closed under disjunction, and provide a mechanism for collecting solutions to a goal and turning the solutions into a disjunctive constraint. This idea leads to an operational model of logic programming, called data or-parallelism, in which multiple constraint environments partially replac...

An MRI biomarker for Parkinsonism has long been sought, but almost all attempts at conventional field strengths have proved unsatisfactory, since patients and controls are not separated. The exception is Spin-Lattice Distribution MRI (SLD-MRI), a technique which detects changes in the substantia nigra (SN) due to changes in the spin-lattice relaxation time, T1. This easily separates patients wi...

Introduction: Sustained Attention (SA) failure is one of the main characteristics of Specific Learning Disorders (SLD). Recent studies have reported a positive effect of Cognitive Rehabilitation (CR) and Neurofeedback (NFB) on SA in SLD. Thus, the effectiveness of CR and NFB is well understood. This preliminary study aimed to compare the effects of CR and NFB on SA among the elementary school s...

High precision experimental new electroweak results measured at the four LEP experiments and the SLD collaboration are discussed. Heavy quark (bb and cc) forward-backward asymmetries measured at LEP are presented along with polarized forward-backward and left-right asymmetries measured at SLD. The results are compared, and the combined averages are used to evaluate the Standard Model parameters.

When doing inference in ProbLog, a probabilistic extension of Prolog, we extend SLD resolution with some additional bookkeeping. This additional information is used to compute the probabilistic results for a probabilistic query. In Prolog’s SLD, goals are nested very naturally. In ProbLog’s SLD, nesting probabilistic queries interferes with the probabilistic bookkeeping. In order to support nes...
