Automatically detecting important moments from everyday life using a mobile device [PDF]

, 2011
This paper proposes a new method to detect important moments in our lives. Our work is motivated by the increase in the quantity of multimedia data, such as videos and photos, which are capturing life experiences into personal archives.

An efficient method of moments for analysis of electromagnetic scattering from a multilayered arbitrary‐shape anisotropic dielectric object

IET Microwaves, Antennas & Propagation
This paper introduces an efficient method of moments (MoM) designed to explore electromagnetic scattering in multilayered anisotropic structures. Each layer is made up of a dielectric anisotropic material characterised by a generalised tensor for ...

Remittance inflows and financial development in Sub-Saharan African countries: Does governance matter?

Heliyon
Background: The surge in remittances in most sub-Saharan African countries motivated this study to establish whether remittance inflows enhance financial development and whether governance plays any significant mediating role in the nexus between ...

Theoretical study on nuclear structure by the multiple Coulomb scattering and magnetic scattering of relativistic electrons

, 2016
Electron scattering is an effective method to study the nuclear structure. For the odd-$A$ nuclei with proton holes in the outmost orbits, we investigate the contributions of proton holes to the nuclear quadrupole moments $Q$ and magnetic moments $\mu ...

Experimental and Numerical Study on Flow Resistance and Bubble Transport in a Helical Static Mixer

Energies, 2020
Flow resistance and bubble transport in a helical static mixer were studied experimentally and numerically. The inline mixer increases the volume fraction of gas in liquids by breaking bubbles into smaller sizes with a micrometer size in the flow ...

Corrections and Comments on the Multipole Moments of Axisymmetric Electrovacuum Spacetimes

, 2004
Following the method of Hoenselaers and Perj\'{e}s we present a new corrected and dimensionally consistent set of multipole gravitational and electromagnetic moments for stationary axisymmetric spacetimes.

Randomised orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm with its application in fast analysis of wide‐angle electromagnetic scattering problems based on compressive sensing

IET Microwaves, Antennas & Propagation
The wide‐angle electromagnetic scattering problems can be rapidly solved by using the method of moments in conjunction with compressive sensing theory. The method mainly has two computational parts: measurement and recovery.

Approximate properties of the response of nonlinear dynamic systems to stochastic inputs [PDF]

, 1971
Indirect method considers effect of nonlinearity and obtains approximate probability densities of certain characteristics, from these densities various statistical properties are calculated. Direct method determines response moments directly.
