Con-Patch: When a Patch Meets Its Context [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 2016 Measuring the similarity between patches in images is a fundamental building block in various tasks. Naturally, the patch-size has a major impact on the matching quality, and on the consequent application performance. Under the assumption that our patch database is sufficiently sampled, using large patches (e.g. 21-by-21) should be preferred over small

Miniature Wideband stacked microstrip patch antenna based on the sierpinski fractal geometry [PDF]
, 2000 The main interest in the design of a miniature microstrip patch antenna (MPA) is its small size in conjunction with the well-known advantages of a MPA (cost, profile, weight).

Threshold dynamics of an SIR epidemic model with hybrid of multigroup and patch structures
Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2014 In this paper, we formulate an SIR epidemic model with hybrid of multigroup and patch structures, which can be regarded as a model for the geographical spread of infectious diseases or a multi-group model with perturbation.

Enhancing safety in ventral patch repair for umbilical hernia by utilizing a hybrid technique
International Journal of Abdominal Wall and Hernia Surgery, 2022 BACKGROUND: Both suture and mesh repairs are used for smaller (1-3 cm) umbilical hernias. But primary repair has a higher recurrence rate in literature. The use of mesh repairs has become the way to go for small and medium sized ventral hernias.

Complementary Split-Ring Resonator-Loaded Microfluidic Ethanol Chemical Sensor
Sensors, 2016 In this paper, a complementary split-ring resonator (CSRR)-loaded patch is proposed as a microfluidic ethanol chemical sensor. The primary objective of this chemical sensor is to detect ethanol’s concentration. First, two tightly coupled concentric CSRRs
