Introduction Efficient preventive management of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is ...

Abstract: This paper develops a method for the time-dependent reliability analysis of deteriorating structures using phase-type (PH) distributions. The deteriorating model consists of two aspects: the ...

One of the early promises of PET was that it would be quantitative (1), as opposed to imaging modalities such as x-ray CT, MRI, or SPECT, in which quantification is more of a challenge than in PET. By ...

Abstract: In recent years, alongside conventional generators, the renewable energy-based power systems consisting of wind and solar farms, and the batteries with large capacities, termed as energy ...

The authors note that, due to a production error, Figures 1–4 appeared in the incorrect order. Figure 1 should appear as Figure 2, Figure 2 should appear as Figure 3, Figure 3 should appear as Figure ...

Brain tumors originate from intracranial tissue tumors and brain metastases, often manifested as increased intracranial pressure and various neurological symptoms, and malignant tumors account for ...

Recent methods generalize convolutional layers from Euclidean domains to graph-structured data by approximating the eigenbasis of the graph Laplacian. The computationally-efficient and broadly-used ...

Here, the x-axis represents the angle accuracy of the detected vanishing points and the y-axis represents the percentage of the results whose error is less than that ...

The Laplace transform convolution theorem is a powerful tool in the field of engineering and mathematics. It relates the convolution of two functions in the time domain to the multiplication of their ...
