Spherical coding algorithm for wavelet image compression
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2009-05)
In recent literature, there exist many high-performance wavelet coders that use different spatially adaptive coding techniques in order to exploit the spatial energy compaction property of the wavelet transform. Two crucial ...
Minimally redundant 2-D array designs for 3-D medical ultrasound imaging
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2009-07)
In real-time ultrasonic 3-D imaging, in addition to difficulties in fabricating and interconnecting 2-D transducer arrays with hundreds of elements, there are also challenges in acquiring and processing data from a large ...
Moral reasoning and moral orientation of U.S. and Turkish university students
(Ammons Scientific, 2010-10)
Participants from an individualistic society (USA) were compared with participants from a collectivistic society (Turkey) in terms of moral reasoning and orientation (justice and care). A total of 396 undergraduates (203 ...
Nonreciprocal switching of VO2 thin films on microstructured surfaces
(Optical Soc Amer, 2010-05-15)
We demonstrate that the combination of near-field focusing and a switchable oxide layer permits construction of a modulator with different optical switching thresholds in two opposing directions. For that purpose VO2 layers ...
Assessment of algorithms for mitosis detection in breast cancer histopathology images
(Elsevier Science BV, 2015-02)
The proliferative activity of breast tumors, which is routinely estimated by counting of mitotic figures in hematoxylin and eosin stained histology sections, is considered to be one of the most important prognostic markers. ...
Channel modelling for indoor visible light communications
(Royal Society Publishing, 2020-04-17)
Visible light communication (VLC) allows the dual use of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for wireless communication purposes in addition to their primary purpose of illumination. As in any other communication system, realistic ...
A stochastic risk-averse framework for blood donation appointment scheduling under uncertain donor arrivals
(Springer, 2020-07-01)
Blood is a key resource in all health care systems, usually drawn from voluntary donors. We focus on the operations management in blood collection centers, which is a key step to guarantee an adequate blood supply and a ...
Relationship between metabolic syndrome and clinical features, and its personal-social performance in patients with schizophrenia
(Springer, 2016-06)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the metabolic syndrome (MS) criteria and also to investigate the effects of MS on medical treatment, clinical course and personal and social performance in patients with schizophrenia. ...
Cross-group friendships and psychological well-being: A dual pathway through social integration and empowerment
(Wiley, 2018-10-01)
This study investigated the associations between cross-group friendships and psychological well-being among a sample of physically disabled adults. A total of 269 disabled people (M-age=39.13, SD=13.80; 114 females, 152 ...
Independent contributions of early positive parenting and mother-son coercion on emerging social development
(Springer, 2018-06)
In the current study, we explored associations between parent-child coercion and positive parenting in the toddler period in relation to children's social-behavioral development during the school-age period. The data were ...
