Neural network approach to the determination of the geophysical model function of the ERS-1 C-band spaceborne radar scatterometer
(1997-04-04)Geophysical Model Functions (GMF) describing the relationship between the scatterometer normalized radar cross section (sigma-0) and useful geophysical parameters such as sea-surface wind vectors, wave heights, and sea- ... -
Neural network architecture for solving the algebraic matrix Riccati equation
(1996-03-22)This paper presents a neurocomputing approach for solving the algebraic matrix Riccati equation. This approach is able to utilize a good initial condition to reduce the computation time in comparison to standard methods ... -
Neuro-glial and systemic mechanisms of pathological responses in rat models of primary blast overpressure compared to "composite" blast
(2012)A number of experimental models of blast brain injury have been implemented in rodents and larger animals. However, the variety of blast sources and the complexity of blast wave biophysics have made data on injury mechanisms ... -
A Neurocomputing Approach for Monitoring Plinian Volcanic Eruptions Using Infrasound
(2012-10-03)Plinian volcanic eruptions can inject a substantial amount of volcanic ash and gas into the stratosphere, which can present a severe hazard to commercial air traffic. A hazardous volcanic ash eruption was reported on April ... -
Neutral pion production with respect to centrality and reaction plane in Au+Au collisions at √sNN=200 GeV
(2013-03-28)The PHENIX experiment has measured the production of π0s in Au+Au collisions at √sNN = 200 GeV. The new data offer a fourfold increase in recorded luminosity, providing higher precision and a larger reach in transverse ... -
A New Approach to Explain Applicant Faking Behaviors: A Model Based on Trait Contract Classification Theory
(2018-06)Applicant faking behavior (AFB) on personality measures is a problematic phenomenon in selection context. It is important to address applicant faking behaviors because it will result in hiring unqualified people and lead ... -
A new approach to scalable Linda-systems based on swarms (EXTENDED VERSION)
(2003-03-07)Natural forming multi-agent systems (aka Swarms) have the ability to grow to enormous sizes without requiring any of the agents to oversee the entire system. The success of these systems comes from the fact that agents are ... -
New Bounds for the k-out-of-n Type Probabilities and Their Applications
(2017-04)The contribution of the shape information of the underlying distribution in probability bounding problem is investigated and an efficient linear programming based bounding methodology, which takes advantage of the advanced ... -
NEW CONSTRAINTS ON QUANTUM GRAVITY FROM X-RAY AND GAMMA-RAY OBSERVATIONS
(2015-05-20)One aspect of the quantum nature of spacetime is its “foaminess” at very small scales. Many models for spacetime foam are defined by the accumulation power α, which parameterizes the rate at which Planck-scale ... -
A new heavy ion abundance enrichment pattern in ³He-rich solar particle events
(2002-01-20)We report the first examples of ³He-rich solar energetic particle (SEP) events with heavy ion enrichments that are not ordered generally by mass. A second new feature is the large enrichment of ¹⁴N, the first time large ... -
New insights into the study of magnetic field in the clumpy torus of AGN using near-infrared polarimetry
(2013-10-24)We present J, H and K., imaging polarimetry of IC5063. N1R polarimetry observations may advance our understanding of the mechanisms of polarisation and hence magnetic field strength in the torus of AGN. In these proceedings ... -
New integral inequalities for iterated integrals with applications
(2008-02-06)Some new nonlinear retarded integral inequalities of Gronwall type are established. These inequalities can be used as basic tools in the study of certain classes of integrodifferential equations. -
A new look at the local white dwarf population
(2008-04)We have conducted a detailed new survey of the local population of white dwarfs lying within 20 pc of the Sun. A new revised catalog of local white dwarfs containing 122 entries (126 individual degenerate stars) is presented. ... -
A NEW METHOD FOR IMPROVED FIXATION OF THE CHICK'S INNER EAR
(1984)Our method for fixation of the chick's inner ear involves puncturing the soft temporal bone with a needle and directly flushing the membranous labyrinth with cold glutaraldehyde. The temporal bone is trimmed and immersed ... -
A new method to describe image theory for an imperfect conductor
(2010)Problem statement: Modify the equations associated with image theory in order to account for perfect and imperfect conductors. Approach: A novel approach for describing the application of image theory for an imperfect ... -
A new multispectral imaging instrument for in-situ characterization of flocs and colloidal aggregates in natural waters
(2016-04-17)In-situ sampling, characterization and quantification of colloidal aggregates and flocs in ambient water is complex but needed in order to understand their role in development and maintenance of moving fluid muds, muck, ... -
A New Object Representation For Graphics
(1999)M-reps are a multiscale approach to the modeling and rendering of 30 solid geometry. Traditional geometric models, whether b-reps or CSG, are represented at infinitesimal spatial scale and then require simplification ... -
A new phenomenon in impulsive-flare-associated energetic particles
(2007-11-01)We present ACE/ULEIS and Wind/STEP observations of a new and unusual feature of energetic ions between 0.02 and 3 MeV nucleon ˉ¹ associated with impulsive solar flares. In addition to the usual velocity dispersion associated ... -
