Measurements of the stopping forces for heavy ions in Ge, Ag and Au using novel ‘polka-dot’ detectors
2006
Measurements of the stopping forces for C-14, N-14 and O-16 ions in Ge and Au, for N-14 and F-19 ions in Ag, as well as for F-19 ions in Au have been made, respectively. A novel technique, reported recently, using PIN diodes coated directly with the stopping medium in a polka dot pattern was used. This provided a set of precise, self-consistent measurements on the same stopping medium. Results show small but significant deviations from SRIM stopping predictions and are also compared to a recently-developed empirical stopping force predictor.
Low-cost method for obtaining medical rapid prototyping using desktop 3d printing : a novel technique for mandibular reconstruction planning
2017
Background Three-dimensional (3D) printing is relatively a new technology with clinical applications, which enable us to create rapid accurate prototype of the selected anatomic region, making it possible to plan complex surgery and pre-bend hardware for individual surgical cases. This study aimed to express our experience with the use of medical rapid prototype (MRP) of the maxillofacial region created by desktop 3D printer and its application in maxillofacial reconstructive surgeries. Material and methods Three patients with benign mandible tumors were included in this study after obtaining informed consent. All patient's maxillofacial CT scan data was processed by segmentation and isolat…
A Novel Technique for Fingerprint Classification based on Fuzzy C-Means and Naive Bayes Classifier
2014
Fingerprint classification is a key issue in automatic fingerprint identification systems. One of the main goals is to reduce the item search time within the fingerprint database without affecting the accuracy rate. In this paper, a novel technique, based on topological information, for efficient fingerprint classification is described. The proposed system is composed of two independent modules: the former module, based on Fuzzy C-Means, extracts the best set of training images, the latter module, based on Fuzzy C-Means and Naive Bayes classifier, assigns a class to each processed fingerprint using only directional image information. The proposed approach does not require any image enhancem…
Privacy preserving via tree augmented naïve Bayesian classifier in multimedia database
2011
International audience; In this paper, we propose a novel technique for privacy preserving in multimedia databases. Our technique is based on a multimedia co-occurrence matrix and a tree augmented naive Bayesian classifier (TAN) to detect possible data associations making confidential multimedia objects at risk.
A novel technique to follow fast PaO2 variations during experimental CPR
2003
An ultrafast responding fluorescent-quenching PO2 probe allows time-resolved, in vivo measurement of PO2. This study describes several validation experiments of this new device in vitro, and reports its first use during cardiopulmonary resuscitation in an animal model of cardiac arrest.The influence of CO2, temperature and motion artefacts on the signal response of the PO2 probe was analysed in vitro by systematic variation of these values. Thereafter, with approval of the Review Board for the care and use of animals, CPR was performed in four pigs. The PaO2 course was recorded continuously at time resolution of80 ms in the abdominal aorta using an uncoated fluorescence-quenching probe (Fox…

Il romanzo in discussione: il discorso metanarrativo nel Fermo e Lucia
2005
Il saggio riguarda l'influsso del romanzo settecentesco inglese e francese (specie della linea Fielding-Sterne-Diderot), sulla composizione dei Promessi Sposi, specie sulla prima versione, il Fermo e Lucia. The essay deals with the seventeenth novels (especially by Fielding, Sterne and Diderot) on Promessi Sposi's drawing up, especially on its early version, Fermo e Lucia.
