Medical image enhancement using threshold decomposition driven adaptive morphological filter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
One of the most common degradations in medical images is their poor contrast quality. This suggests the use of contrast enhancement methods as an attempt to modify the intensity distribution of the image.

Wet Relaxation of Electrospun Nanofiber Mats

open access: yesTechnologies, 2019
Electrospinning can be used to produce nanofiber mats. One of the often used polymers for electrospinning is polyacrylonitrile (PAN), especially for the production of carbon nanofibers, but also for a diverse number of other applications.

A particle filter for freeway traffic estimation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This paper considers the traffic flow estimation problem for the purposes of on-line traffic prediction, mode detection and ramp-metering control. The solution to the estimation problem is given within the Bayesian recursive framework. A particle filter (

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Designing the fast filter bank with a minimum complexity criterion

open access: yes, 2004
The fast filter bank (FFB) is an extremely efficient single-rate filter bank due to the sparse population of non-zero coefficients in the subfilters. Its subfilters are designed and operated based on the frequency response masking (FRM) technique.

Effect of thermal stress on the life of DC link capacitors for smart grid

open access: yesScientific Reports
Thermal stress is an important factor affecting the life of a DC link capacitor (DCLC). However, relevant studies on thermal stress mechanism directly influencing the lifetime of the capacitor are rarely reported.

Design of a Multilayer Dual-Band Balanced Bandpass Filter on a Circular Patch Resonator

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2021
This letter presents a novel multilayer dual-band balanced bandpass filter (BPF) design by using two perturbed circular patch resonators. The TM11 mode and TM21 mode of the resonator with odd-symmetric field distributions are explored to realize the ...

Effects of the Fluid Replacement Method During Online Hemodiafiltration on the Solute Removal Performance and Biocompatibility Using the Asymmetric Cellulose Triacetate Membrane

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pre‐dilution online hemodiafiltration (Pre‐HDF) is predominantly used in Japan, whereas post‐dilution online HDF (Post‐HDF) is more common in Europe. An asymmetric cellulose triacetate (ATA) membrane may improve biocompatibility.
