Achievable Performance of Bayesian Compressive Sensing Based Spectrum Sensing
(IEEE, 2014)
In wideband spectrum sensing compressive sensing approaches have been used at the receiver side to decrease the sampling rate if the wideband signal can be represented as sparse in a given domain. While most studies consider ...
Analysis of the Patients and Physicians Connection Network on an online Health Information Platform
(IOS Press, 2014)
Social network applications have gained popularity in the health domain as they bring health information seekers (patients and alike) and medication advice providers (physicians and other relevant actors) together. By ...
Channel Estimation for SM Systems over Time-Varying Rayleigh Fading Channels
(IEEE, 2014)
This paper is concerned with the challenging and timely problem of channel estimation for spatial modulated systems in the presence of time varying channels. Recently estimation of channel state information for SM systems ...
Examination of Centrality in a Health Social Network
(IOS Press, 2014)
Growing importance of health information platforms are acknowledges in recent studies. Such platforms are subject to discussion about an extent to which social network characteristics are realized. The platform under ...
Cumulative prospect theory preferences in rent-seeking contests
(Elsevier Science, 2018)
We investigate the equilibrium behavior for agents with cumulative prospect theory preferences in rent-seeking contests. Characterizing the equilibrium effort levels we present results on the existence of equilibrium and ...
Contraction and deletion blockers for perfect graphs and H-free graphs
(Elsevier Science, 2018)
We study the following problem: for given integers d k and graph G can we reduce some fixed graph parameter pi of G by at least d via at most k graph operations from some fixed set S? As parameters we take the chromatic ...
Bivariate Pseudo-Gompertz distribution and concomitants of its order statistics
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2013)
This paper presents a new bivariate Pseudo-Gompertz distribution that sprouts from the classical Gompertz distribution and possesses the features of pseudo-distribution functions. In addition to some standard properties ...
Waterpipe tobacco smoke: Characterization of toxicants and exposure biomarkers in a cross-sectional study of waterpipe employees
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019)
Introduction: Few studies have comprehensively characterized toxic chemicals related to waterpipe use and secondhand waterpipe exposure. This cross-sectional study investigated biomarkers of toxicants associated with ...
CAMPways: constrained alignment framework for the comparative analysis of a pair of metabolic pathways
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
Motivation: Given a pair of metabolic pathways an alignment of the pathways corresponds to a mapping between similar substructures of the pair. Successful alignments may provide useful applications in phylogenetic tree ...
Navigation of non-communicating autonomous mobile robots with guaranteed connectivity
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2013)
We consider the connectivity of autonomous mobile robots. The robots navigate using simple local steering rules without requiring explicit communication among themselves. We show that using only position information of ...
