    Surface Recognition of His-Purkinje activity by one-beat analysis wavelet transform system in the evaluation of type 1 second-degree AV block

    No full text
    Traditional beat-to-beat recording (TBR), also if overcomes these limitations, means high level of noise that at moment is eliminated by Fourier based digital filters. But these filters may produce a phase shift of atrial signals and, at time, may cause ringing at the end of atrial waveform. Therefore we propose Wavelet Transform System (WTS) of one-beat signal as method to overcome these limitations

    Surface Recognition of His-Purkinje activity can be analyzed by signal averaging or by beat to beat recording of High Resolution ECG. However, these techniques have several limitations connected to the trigger mechanism and to Fourier based digital filters. Therefore, we propose Wavelet transform (WT) of one beat signal as methods for overcoming these limitations

    Spectrophotometric Determination Of Hexamethylenetetramine (hmt) In Pharmaceutical Preparations Using Chromotropic Acid And Microwave Oven [determinação Espectrofotométrica De Hexametilenotetramina (hmt) Em Medicamentos, Utilizando ácido Cromotrópico E Forno De Micro-ondas]

    This paper proposes a methodology for spectrophotometric determination of hexamethylenetetramine (HMT) by using chromotropic acid in a phosphoric acid media employing a domestic microwave oven as a source of heating. The reddish-purple soluble product is quantitatively formed after 30 s of irradiation and obeys the Beeŕs law in the range between 0.1-1.2 mg L-1 HMT (r = 0.99925). The method was applied successfully in commercial pharmaceutical preparations containing dyes in their composition. The results showed that the method proposed is feasible for simplicity, speed, low cost, precision and accuracy when compared with United States Pharmacopeia official method.32924582463Nickel, J.C., (2005) J.

    A class of fractional refinable functions

    No full text
    Starting from a family of centrally symmetric, totally positive and compactly supported (GP) refinable functions and introducing a fractional exponent in the discrete Fourier transform, new functions, that are proved to be still refinable, are generated. Even if, for non integer, they are not compactly supported anymore they exhibit a decay that allows them to belong to L2(R); moreover, for certain values of their parameters they reduce to the fractional B-splines, while, for integer, they interpolate the GP refinable functions. Also, these refinable functions can be characterized by a convolution relation between suitable minimally supported GP refinable functions and suitable fractional B-splines

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Systematic Variable Length Check Binary Unordered/AUED Codes

    No full text
    In an unordered code no codeword is contained into any other codeword. Unordered codes are All Unidirectional Error Detecting (AUED) codes. It is well known that among all systematic codes with k information bits, Berger codes are optimal unordered codes with r = [log(2)(k + 1)] check bits. This paper introduces a new class of systematic unordered codes with variable length check symbols whose average redundancy is r approximate to (1/2) log(2)(pi ek/2) = (1/2) log(2) k +1.04709 ... Such new codes are shown to be optimal in the class of systematic AUED codes with fixed length information symbols and variable length check symbols

    Considering the class of the refinable GP functions, I construct a class of biorthogonal bases on the interval with any prescribed order of polynomial exactness. Numerical results are compared with respect to the B-spline bases and show better performances

    Variable lenght unordered codes

    In an unordered code no codeword is contained in any other codeword. Unordered codes are all unidirectional error detecting (AUED) codes. In the binary case, it is well known that among all systematic codes with k information bits, Berger codes are optimal unordered codes. This paper gives some new theory on variable length unordered codes and introduces a new class of systematic unordered codes with variable length check symbols. The average redundancy of these new codes is almost half one of Berger codes. It is also shown that such codes are optimal in the class of systematic unordered codes with fixed length information symbols and variable length check symbols. The generalization to the non-binary case is also given
