This study aims to examine the cyclical instability of Islamic banking in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Pakistan. A stable system can give public confidence conduct transactions thus grow economy. The proxy variable for stability used is z-score, with 156 periods research data from January 2007 December 2019. Markov Switching Vector Autoregression (MS-VAR) method was employed. results show that Indo...

Scirtothrips perseae Nakahara was discovered attacking avocados in California, USA, in 1996. Host plant surveys in California indicated that S. perseae has a highly restricted host range with larvae being found only on avocados, while adults were collected from 11 different plant species. As part of a management program for this pest, a ‘‘classical’’ biological control program was initiated and...

Reconstructing a 3Dmodel of a human face fromamonocular video sequence is an important problem in computer vision, with applications to recognition, surveillance, multimedia, etc. However, the quality of 3D reconstructions using structure frommotion (SfM) algorithms is often not satisfactory. One of the reasons is the poor quality of the input video data. Hence, it is important that 3D face rec...

We present the results of an analysis of ultraviolet observations of T Tauri Stars (TTS). By analysing emission measures taken from the literature we derive rates of ionizing photons from the chromospheres of 5 classical TTS in the range ∼ 10 41 –10 44 photons s −1 , although these values are subject to large uncertainties. We propose that the He II/C IV line ratio can be used as a reddening-in...
