A mechanism design approach to allocating central government funds among regional development agencies
(Springer, 2014)
To allocate central government funds among regional development agencies we look for mechanisms that satisfy three important criteria: efficiency (individual and coalitional) strategy proofness (a.k.a. dominant strategy ...
The European Union and the Black Sea Region in Search of a Narrative or a New Paradigm
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2014)
The European Union (EU) has over time formulated and implemented various policies to address its Eastern neighbourhood and in particular the Black Sea region ;yet it still finds itself in search of the right mix of policy ...
Discovery of high affinity ligands for beta(2)-adrenergic receptor through pharmacophore-based high-throughput virtual screening and docking
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2014)
Novel high affinity compounds for human beta(2)-adrenergic receptor (beta(2)-AR) were searched among the clean drug-like subset of ZINC database consisting of 9928465 molecules that satisfy the Lipinski's rule of five. The ...
Fluorescence study of film formation from PS/Al2O3 nanocomposites
(Elsevier Science, 2014)
Steady state fluorescence (SSF) and UV-vis (UVV) techniques were used to study the film formation behavior of pyrene (P) labeled polystyrene (PS) latex and Al2O3 (PS/Al2O3) composites depending on PS particles size and ...

A Computerized Recognition System for the Home-Based Physiotherapy Exercises Using an RGBD Camera
(IEEE, 2014)
Computerized recognition of the home based physiotherapy exercises has many benefits and it has attracted considerable interest among the computer vision community. However most methods in the literature view this task as ...
Information theoretical performance limits of single-carrier underwater acoustic systems
(Inst Engineering Technology-IET, 2014)
In this study the authors investigate the information theoretical limits on the performance of point-to-point single-carrier acoustic systems over frequency-selective underwater channels with intersymbol interference. Under ...
Compressive sensing for ultra-wideband channel estimation: on the sparsity assumption of ultra-wideband channels
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)
Due to the sparse structure of ultra-wideband (UWB) multipath channels there has been a considerable amount of interest in applying the compressive sensing (CS) theory to UWB channel estimation. The main consideration of ...
