an unusual occurrence of actinobacillosis was diagnosed in 4 heifers aged 8-15 months and 2 cattle in a dairy herd with 190 iranian holstein breed. anorexia, dysphagia, drooling of normal or foodtinged saliva and presence of warts-like lesions on the dorsal surface of tongue shaft were observed in a 15-month-old heifer without showing protrusion of tongue or presenting woody tongue and no invol...

We revisit occurrence typing, a technique to refine the type of variables occurring in type-cases and, thus, capture some programming patterns used untyped languages. Although typing was tied from its inception set-theoretic types—union types, particular—it never fully exploited capabilities these types. Here we show how, by using it is possible develop general framework that encompasses and ge...

This paper (based on an MS Thesis by Robert Utama in the Electrical and Computer Engineering department at Rutgers University) describes 6 limited-domain Text-to-Speech (TTS) systems that are constrained to the digit string and natural number domains (cardinal numbers only). Each of the 6 unit selection-based concatenative TTS systems were implemented in MATLAB. We evaluate and discuss various ...

Large amounts of CO adsorption resulted from a pulse adsorption experiment at 323 K,giving ~300% Pt dispersion in the title catalyst.An in situ DRIFTS investigation showed that carbonate species on the Ce oxide surface are responsible for the CO adsorption, as a result of CO spillover. Lowering the temperature to 195 K reduced the amount of CO adsorption.The Pt particle size could be determined...

ABSTARCT: In this work, gray-level co-occurrence matrices (GLCM) have been used to quantitatively evaluate statistical textural parameters for a SAR image and to generate a filtered image to feed to ANNs for classification for land cover. Prior to performing the textural analysis, an adaptive filter was applied to reduce the effect of radar-system-generated coherent speckle to produces an image...

Texture analysis and classification are usual tasks in pattern recognition. Rock texture is a demanding classification task, because the texture is often non-homogenous. In this paper, we introduce a rock texture classification method, which is based on textural and spectral features of the rock. The spectral features are considered as some color parameters whereas the textural features are cal...

Three-dimensional textural and volumetric image analysis holds great potential in understanding the image data produced by multi-photon microscopy. In this paper, an algorithm that quantitatively analyzes the texture and the morphology of vasculature in engineered tissues is proposed. The investigated 3D artificial tissues consist of Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC) embedded in co...
