Multicentric Atrial Strain COmparison between Two Different Modalities: MASCOT HIT Study

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2020
Two methods are currently available for left atrial (LA) strain measurement by speckle tracking echocardiography, with two different reference timings for starting the analysis: QRS (QRS-LASr) and P wave (P-LASr).

An accurate fingerprint reference point determination method based on curvature estimation of separated ridges

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, 2018
This paper presents an effective method for the detection of a fingerprint’s reference point by analyzing fingerprint ridges’ curvatures. The proposed approach is a multi-stage system.

An FMCDM approach to purchasing decision-making based on cloud model and prospect theory in e-commerce

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems, 2016
This paper presents a fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making (FMCDM) approach based on cloud model and prospect theory. In addition, a reference point selection method is developed according to the evaluations of the potential customer or similar consumers

Noncontractible Investments and Reference Points [PDF]

open access: yesGames, 2011
We analyze noncontractible investments in a model with shading. A seller can make an investment that affects a buyer’s value. The parties have outside options that depend on asset ownership. When shading is not possible and there is no contract renegotiation, an optimum can be achieved by giving the seller the right to make a take-it-or-leave-it offer.

Reference point formation and new venture creation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this study, we introduce reference point formation as an important antecedent of new venture creation. Based on considerations from prospect theory, we hypothesize that individuals who generally and consistently set more aspiring reference points have

An alternative 2-phase method for evaluating of DMUs using DEA [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Numerical Analysis and Optimization, 2013
Computationally, selection of a proper numerical value for infinitesimal non Archimedean epsilon in DEA models has some difficulties. Although there are several algorithms for selecting the proper non-Archimedean epsilon, it is important to introduce ...

Iterative learning control for multiple point-to-point tracking application [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A framework is developed which enables a general class of linear Iterative Learning Control (ILC) algorithms to be applied to tracking tasks which require the plant output to reach given points at predetermined time instants, without the need for ...
