Relative group size and minority school success: The role of intergroup friendship and discrimination experiences
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)
From an intergroup relations perspective relative group size is associated with the quantity and quality of intergroup contact: more positive contact (i.e. intergroup friendship) supports and negative contact (i.e. experienced ...
A Reliable Successive Relaying Protocol
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2014)
Successive relaying has recently emerged as an effective technique for cooperative networks and provides significant improvements in bandwidth efficiency over traditional relaying techniques ;however to achieve full-diversity ...
Designing of multi-targeted molecules using combination of molecular screening and in silico drug cardiotoxicity prediction approaches
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2014)
We have previously investigated and reported a set of phenol- and indole-based derivatives at the binding pockets of carbonic anhydrase isoenzymes using in silico and in vitro analyses. In this study we extended our analysis ...
Supplier Selection for Framework Agreements in Humanitarian Relief
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)
In this study we consider the supplier selection problem of a relief organization that wants to establish framework agreements (FAs) with a number of suppliers to ensure quick and cost-effective procurement of relief ...
Effect of multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) on the behavior of swelling of polyacrylamide-MWNT composites
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2014)
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the role of multiwalled carbon nanotube in the swelling of polyacrylamide-multiwalled carbon nanotube composites. Swelling experiments were performed in water at various temperatures ...
New Infinite Families of 2-Edge-Balanced Graphs
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)
A graph G of order n is called t-edge-balanced if G satisfies the property that there exists a positive for which every graph of order n and size t is contained in exactly distinct subgraphs of Kn isomorphic to G. We call ...
Detection of interdependent primary systems using wideband cognitive radios
(Elsevier GMBH Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2013)
Cognitive radios (CRs) may be sharing multiple frequency bands with primary systems if the CR is a wideband or an ultra wideband (UWB) system. In that case the CR should ensure all the coexisting primary systems in these ...
MP-SAGE Based Channel Estimation for Underwater Cooperative OFDM Systems
(IEEE, 2013)
In this paper an efficient channel estimation algorithm is proposed for amplify-and-forward (AF) cooperative relay based orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system in the presence of sparse underwater acoustic ...
A New Technique for OFDM: OFDM-Index Modulation
(IEEE, 2013)
In this study a novel scheme called orthogonal frequency division multiplexing with index modulation (OFDMIM) is proposed for frequency selective channels. In this scheme the information is conveyed not only by only M -ary ...
Action Recognition Using Random Forest Prediction with Combined Pose-based and Motion-based Features
(IEEE, 2013)
In this paper we propose a novel human action recognition system that uses random forest prediction with statistically combined pose-based and motion-based features. Given a set of training and test image sequences (videos) ...
