This paper analyzes the potential of a nu-support vector regression (nu-SVR) model for the reconstruction of missing data of hydrological time series from a sensor network. Sensor networks are currently experiencing rapid growth of applications in experimental research and monitoring and provide an opportunity to study the dynamics of hydrological processes in previously ungauged or remote area...

The Northern Region Landbird Monitoring Program (NRLMP) has been in place for nearly a decade. Based on our experience with this program, we offer thoughts on monitoring goals, the need for regional programs, and the components we believe make count-based monitoring effective. The NRLMP includes a biennial bird survey conducted from permanently marked points for the purposes of long-term popula...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to validate the Portuguese version of the Nursing Delirium Screening Scale (Nu-DESC) for use in critical care settings. METHODS We simultaneously and independently evaluated all postoperative patients admitted to a surgical Intensive Care Unit (SICU) over a 1-month period for delirium, using the Portuguese versions of both the Nu-DESC and th...

In this paper we will generalize a singular value inequality that was proved before. In particular we obtain an inequality for numerical radius as follows: begin{equation*} 2 sqrt{t (1-t)} omega(t A^{nu}B^{1-nu}+(1-t)A^{1-nu}B^{nu}) leq omega(t A + (1- t) B), end{equation*} where, $ A $ and $ B $ are positive semidefinite matrices, $ 0 leq t leq 1 $ and $ 0 leq nu leq frac{3}{2}.$

BACKGROUND Delirium is often seen in the recovery room and is a predictor for postoperative delirium on the ward. However, monitoring to detect delirium in the recovery room as a basic prerequisite for early intervention is rarely used. The aim of this study was to identify a valid and easy-to-use test for early screening of delirium in the recovery room. METHODS One hundred and fifty-four ad...

‎for a finite group $g$ let $nu(g)$ denote the number of conjugacy classes of non-normal subgroups of $g$‎. ‎the aim of this paper is to classify all the non-nilpotent groups with $nu(g)=3$‎.

Inverse Young inequality asserts that if $nu >1$, then $|zw|ge nu|z|^{frac{1}{nu}}+(1-nu)|w|^{frac{1}{1-nu}}$, for all complex numbers $z$ and $w$, and equality holds if and only if $|z|^{frac{1}{nu}}=|w|^{frac{1}{1-nu}}$. In this paper the complex representation of quaternion matrices is applied to establish the inverse Young inequality for matrices of quaternions. Moreover, a necessary and ...
