The synthesis and structural characterization of a new liquid crystalline coordination complex based on pentacoordinated Zn(II) metal centre with the fulfilled by tridentate chelating N^N^N 2,2′;6′,2″-terpyridine ligand two monoanionic gallates decorated several long alkyl chains is described. mesomorphic properties were accurately investigated small- wide-angle X-ray scattering studies. Despit...

Substituted phenylazo and phenylazoxy compounds were systematically prepared and their anti-androgenic activity was measured in terms of (1) the growth-inhibiting effect on an androgen-dependent cell line, SC-3, and (2) the binding affinity to nuclear androgen receptor. Generally, azo/azoxy compounds showed cell toxicity, and the growth-inhibiting effects on SC-3 cells correlated with the toxic...

We propose a closed form solution for segmenting mixtures of 2-D translational and 2-D affine motion models directly from the image intensities. Our approach exploits the fact that the spatial-temporal image derivatives generated by a mixture of these motion models must satisfy a bi-homogeneous polynomial called the multibody brightness constancy constraint (MBCC). We show that the degrees of t...
