A new regularization term based on second order total generalized variation for image denoising problems [PDF]
Variational models are one of the most efficient techniques for image denoising problems. A variational method refers to the technique of optimizing a functional in order to restore appropriate solutions from observed data that best fit the original ...

The effects of total sleep deprivation on bayesian updating [PDF]
AbstractSubjects performed a decision task (Grether, 1980) in both a well-rested and experimentally sleep-deprived state. We found two main results: 1) final choice accuracy was unaffected by sleep deprivation, and yet 2) the estimated decision model differed significantly following sleep-deprivation.

Establishing a range of motion boundary for total hip arthroplasty [PDF]
Range of motion of the hip joint is a major contributor to dislocation post total hip replacement. Impingement is often treated as a surrogate for dislocation and occurs – prosthetically – when the neck of the femoral component contacts with the rim of ...
