Abstract:
The inscriptional remains of Gaulish preserve syntactic behaviours that are not expected from the perspective of the diachronic schemes usually posited for the development of early Insular Celtic syntax from Proto-Indo-European. Widespread evidence is attested, particularly for the behaviour of clitics, that does not seem reconcilable with many of the assumptions made in previous studies regarding the nature of the syntax of Proto-Celtic. Gaulish also evidently features scrambling-type phenomena such as left branch extraction that are not usually thought to appear in other Celtic languages. An analysis which begins with an assessment of these features leads to a more empirically predicated and consistent understanding of the early development of Celtic word order than has been proffered previously.

Abstract:
Aim. To describe a case of branch retinal artery occlusion following dental extraction and to point out the ophthalmic complications of dental procedures to ophthalmologists and dentists.Case. A 51-year-old woman was referred to our clinic with painless sudden visual loss in her left eye after tooth extraction two days ago. In her left eye the best corrected visual acuity was 6/30 and fundus examination revealed peripapillary flame-shaped hemorrhages and pale retina in the upper temporal arcuate. The right eye examination was unremarkable.Conclusion. Dental procedures can lead to miscellaneous ophthalmic complications possibly due to the close proximity of the anatomic structures. Retinal arterial occlusion is a rare but serious cause of permanent visual loss among these dental procedures where the exact pathologic mechanism is still obscure.

Abstract:
In this work, we aim to clarify the empirical paradigm that bears on two aspects of syntactic locality in Slovenian. First, building on previous work, we investigate how robustly Slovenian observes the syntactic locality constraint precluding constituent sub-extraction out of subject noun phrases. Second, we ask whether Slovenian allows Left Branch Extraction in interrogative and non-interrogative sentences. To elucidate both issues, we conducted a magnitude estimation study, the results of which support our previous claim that there is a subject island effect in Slovenian. Furthermore, our results suggest that Slovenian disallows Left Branch Extraction, in contrast with some other Slavic languages. We also discuss theoretical consequences of our empirical findings.

Abstract:
We present the case of a 41 years old patient with poor social status and previous facial trauma with a sharp object (wood branch) 2 years ago. Although it was performed the extraction of the branch in a local ENT department, the patient developed a fistula in the left genian region with the presence of puss. Two months ago the patient undergoes another head trauma leading to neurosurgery. CT scan raises the suspicion of a foreign body in the left maxillary sinus. We performed left maxillary sinus surgery through Caldwell-Luc approach with extraction of the foreign body and closure of the fistula. Surgical healing was optimal within 10 days. We analyze the medico-legal implications of such cases.

Abstract:
This paper aims to explain the difference in grammaticality between Japanese attributive subcomparatives with quantity adjectives (e.g., ooku/takusan ‘many’) and those with non-quantity adjectives (e.g., omosiroi ‘interesting’). My analysis assumes that Japanese clausal comparatives involve degree abstraction (Shimoyama 2012, see also Bhatt and Takahashi 2011). Degree abstraction is generally assumed to require movement of a null degree operator. In the case of attributive clausal comparatives, the movement takes place from the left branch position. If no operation that alleviates a left branch island violation is available, we would expect that the resulting sentences would be ungrammatical. I propose that in Japanese, quantifier float can play a role in ameliorating extraction out of the left branch islands. More specifically, I argue that (i) Japanese attributive subcomparatives with quantity adjectives involve quantifier float of the quantity adjectives, and that (ii) quantifier float carries the degree operators associated with the adjectives to a position where degree operator movement can originate.

Abstract:
This paper addresses the question of whether noun modifiers can be stranded or extracted in Mandarin. I argue that there is no positive evidence that noun modifiers can be stranded in Mandarin, and that noun modifiers cannot be extracted in Mandarin. Specifically, I show that the so-called "split NP" constructions, which are often taken to involve stranding of a noun modifier, should be subsumed under a phenomenon I refer to as "split partitivity". I further show that "split partitivity" does not involve left-branch extraction of a noun modifier, but involves extraction from Spec, DP, the "escape hatch" for extraction.

Abstract:
To my knowledge, Left Branch Extraction (LBE) out of the Determiner Phrase (DP) is not previously attested in Modern Standard Arabic ( MSA) or any of the Arabic dialects. In Saudi Northern Region dialect of Arabic (SNRDA), the wh-degree question kam “how many/much” can appear at the left periphery of the clause leaving the noun and other postnominal modifiers in the base position, in both the subject and the object positions. In this paper, I will argue for a new perspective for the syntactic phenomenon LBE in which the extracted element is a full DP, not part of a DP as previous studies assume, that moves leaving the other DP in situ. That is to say, I will argue that there are two DPs in the argument position; one of those two DPs is the numeral and the other is all that comes after the numeral including the overt noun and its postnominal modifiers. It is only the wh-item kam “how many/how much”, which moves to the left periphery of the clause. My argument is supported, besides other things, by morpho-syntactic similarities between the numeral and the noun, for example both participating in topic and focus constructions and both use of pro-clitic h- and the use of the definite article al- “the” with other pre-nominal modifier like the quantifier kil “all” and baadh “some. This paper is unique in that it provides a new perspective on LBE in a dialect of Arabic which is rarely discussed.

Abstract:
In this paper we have utilized a hybrid lightweight 1D deep learning model that combines convolutional neural network (CNN) and long short-term memory (LSTM) methods for accurate, fast, and automated beat-wise ECG classification. The CNN and LSTM models were designed separately to compare with the hybrid CNN-LSTM model in terms of accuracy, number of parameters, and the time required for classification. The hybrid CNN-LSTM system provides an automated deep feature extraction and classification for six ECG beats classes including Normal Sinus Rhythm (NSR), atrial fibrillation (AFIB), atrial flutter (AFL), atrial premature beat (APB), left bundle branch block (LBBB), and right bundle branch block (RBBB). The hybrid model uses the CNN blocks for deep feature extraction and selection from the ECG beat. While the LSTM layer will learn how to extract contextual time information. The results show that the proposed hybrid CNN-LSTM model achieves high accuracy and sensitivity of 98.22% and 98.23% respectively. This model is light and fast in classifying ECG beats and superior to other previously used models which makes it very suitable for embedded systems designs that can be used in clinical applications for monitoring heart diseases in faster and more efficient manner.

Abstract:
Abstract This 16-yr-old boy presented with episodes of severe headaches, blurred vision, dizziness, and muffled hearing and was discovered to have a large fusiform aneurysm of the left middle cerebral artery (MCA), M1 segment, 20 × 12 mm in dimension. The lenticulostriate arteries were arising proximal and distal to the aneurysm, but the anterior temporal artery was arising from the aneurysm. The aneurysm culminated in the distal M1 segment, and M1 immediately branched into 3 M2 vessels, the lower one being the larger. Due to origin of the lenticulostriate arteries and the anterior temporal artery and patient's age, a bypass was preferred to a flow diversion stent. He underwent left frontotemporal craniotomy and orbital osteotomy, left cervical external carotid artery exposure followed by radial artery graft extraction. The Sylvian fissure was opened and intracranial ICA was exposed for proximal control. The distal M2 vessels traced back toward the aneurysm. The aneurysm was not clippable and a bypass to the larger inferior M2 branch was performed followed by aneurysm trapping. The radial artery graft bypass was placed from the left external carotid artery to the M2 segment of left MCA, followed by clip reconstruction and occlusion of the MCA aneurysm with the preservation of the anterior temporal branch and the lenticulostriate vessels. The patient had no postoperative complications. At the follow-up, one month after surgery, he was doing well, and his angiogram demonstrated patency of the bypass. This video shows the management of a complex fusiform M1 aneurysm with bypass and trapping. Informed consent was obtained from the patient prior to the surgery that included videotaping of the procedure and its distribution for educational purposes. All relevant patient identifiers have also been removed from the video and accompanying radiology slides.

Abstract:
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the world. Heart disease is called the silent killer, because it often occcurs suddenly. Therefore, periodic cardiac examination is very necessary to reduce cases of death from heart disease.Heart disease can be known through electrocardiogram (ECG) examination. This study aims to explain the process of diagnosing heart disease through ECG using wavelet transformation and Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS).The process of diagnosing heart disease begins with cutting ECG signal consisting of 9-11 waves into one ECG wave, then decomposition and extraction are performed using wavelet transformation to obtain 6 parameters. The parameters will be used as input in ANFIS model. Data obtained from ECG extraction are divided into 70% training data and 30% testing data The output from the ANFIS model is a diagnosis of heart diseases, such as left bundle branch block (LBBB), right bundle branch block (RBBB), and normal. ANFIS learning is divided into 6 stages, namely clustering data with Fuzzy C-Means method, computing the degree of membership of each data, determining fixed neurons, looking for normalized firing strength, calculating the consequent parameter values, and determining network output.The results of the study obtained the best ANFIS model with 10 clusters. The level of accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity for training data is 100%, 100%, and 100%, respectively and for the testing data, the level of accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity is 100%, 100%, and 100%, respectively.

Abstract:
AbstractThe inscription on a spear-shaft excavated from the Kragehul bog, just outside Flemløse, Denmark, in the late nineteenth century, is one of the most interpretatively problematic of all the early runic texts. Previous treatments of the inscription, however, have failed to consider the intertextuality and syntax of the text properly, and have often been distracted by idiosyncratic hypotheses peculiar to runic studies. The present paper addresses several of the shortcomings evident in the philological method applied in previous accounts in a historiographically critical analysis of the very difficult ancient moor find. Syntactic features such as anastrophe and left branch extraction can be discerned in the Kragehul spear-shaft inscription that seems to preserve a text that is intertextually paralleled by other contemporary Migration Age sources.

Abstract:
Electrocardiography is the most useful method for diagnosing cardiovascular disease such as arrhythmia. Heartbeat classification of electrocardiography signals is a valuable and hopeful technology for early warning of dysrhythmia because it contains the cardiac electrical activities and reflects the abnormal cardiac activity. Therefore, a novel electrocardiogram-based arrhythmic beats classification was proposed to automatically detect the main types of dysrhythmia using electrocardiography signal in this work. A convolutional neural network model was used to automatically detect the normal and the types of dysrhythmia electrocardiography beats. The beat was transformed into a matrix as two-dimensional input to the model. The classification system was assessed to detect the normal, left bundle branch block, premature ventricular contraction and right bundle branch block beats using the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. The results showed that an average accuracy of 99.30% and 98.85% was achieved by using ML2 lead of electrocardiography data with one-dimensional and 2-dimensional input, respectively. An average accuracy of 97.00% and 97.20% was achieved by using V1 lead of electrocardiography data with one-dimensional and 2-dimensional input, respectively. Moreover, no feature extraction of signals was carried out in this study. Consequently, the proposed model can accurately test the unknown electrocardiography signal and aid the clinician in the diagnosis of dysrhythmia.

Abstract:
Electrocardiography (ECG) is a transthoracic interpretation of the electrical activity of the heart over a period of time, as detected by electrodes attached to the outer surface of the skin and recorded by a device external to the body. ECG signal classification is very important for the clinical detection of arrhythmia. This paper presents an application of an improved wavelet neural network structure to the classification of the ECG beats, because of the high precision and fast learning rate. Feature extraction method in this paper is wavelet transform. Our experimental data set is taken from the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. The correct detection rate of QRS wave is 95% by testing the data of MIT-BIH database. The proposed methods are applied to a large number of ECG signals consisting of 600 training samples and 120 test samples from the MIT-BIH database. The samples equally represent six different ECG signal types, including normal beat, atrial premature beat, ventricular premature beat, left bundle branch block, right bundle branch block and paced beat. In comparison with pattern recognition methods of BP neural networks, RBF neural networks and Support Vector Machines (SVM), the results in this experiment prove that the wavelet neural network method has a better recognition rate when classifying electrocardiogram signals. The experimental results prove that supposed method in this paper is effective for arrhythmia pattern recognition field.

Abstract:
Regional quantitative analysis of airway morphological abnormalities is of great interest in lung disease investigation. Considering that pulmonary lobes are relatively independent functional unit, we develop and test a novel and efficient computerized scheme in this study to automatically and robustly classify the airways into different categories in terms of pulmonary lobe. Given an airway tree, which could be obtained using any available airway segmentation scheme, the developed approach consists of four basic steps: (1) airway skeletonization or centerline extraction, (2) individual airway branch identification, (3) initial rule-based airway classification/labeling, and (4) self-correction of labeling errors. In order to assess the performance of this approach, we applied it to a dataset consisting of 300 chest CT examinations in a batch manner and asked an image analyst to subjectively examine the labeled results. Our preliminary experiment showed that the labeling accuracy for the right upper lobe, the right middle lobe, the right lower lobe, the left upper lobe, and the left lower lobe is 100%, 99.3%, 99.3%, 100%, and 100%, respectively. Among these, only two cases are incorrectly labeled due to the failures in airway detection. It takes around 2 minutes to label an airway tree using this algorithm.

Abstract:
The new advances in multiple types of devices and machine learning models provide opportunities for practical automatic computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems for ECG classification methods to be practicable in an actual clinical environment. This imposes the requirements for the ECG arrhythmia classification methods that are inter-patient. We aim in this paper to design and investigate an automatic classification system using a new comprehensive ECG database inter-patient paradigm separation to improve the minority arrhythmical classes detection without performing any features extraction. We investigated four supervised machine learning models: support vector machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbors (KNN), Random Forest (RF), and the ensemble of these three methods. We test the performance of these techniques in classifying: Normal beat (NOR), Left Bundle Branch Block Beat (LBBB), Right Bundle Branch Block Beat (RBBB), Premature Atrial Contraction (PAC), and Premature Ventricular Contraction (PVC), using inter-patient real ECG records from MIT-DB after segmentation and normalization of the data, and measuring four metrics: accuracy, precision, recall, and f1-score. The experimental results emphasized that with applying no complicated data pre-processing or feature engineering methods, the SVM classifier outperforms the other methods using our proposed inter-patient paradigm, in terms of all metrics used in experiments, achieving an accuracy of 0.83 and in terms of computational cost, which remains a very important factor in implementing classification models for ECG arrhythmia. This method is more realistic in a clinical environment, where varieties of ECG signals are collected from different patients.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Pacemaker-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM) can occur in up to 9% of patients having a pacemaker. Pacemaker-induced cardiomyopathy can be treated by upgrade to a biventricular pacemaker with a left ventricular (LV) lead implantation. The procedure can be technically challenging in patients with persistent left-sided superior vena cava (PLSVC). Case summary We report the case of a 72-year-old gentleman with a PLSVC, who had a dual-chamber pacemaker implanted 15 years ago for complete heart block. After 12 years of good health, the gentleman developed breathlessness due to PICM. At upgrade to biventricular pacemaker, his coronary sinus was found to be occluded and a collateral branch was used to successfully position an LV lead. Marked clinical improvement was seen before representation with syncope after 2 years due to simultaneous failure of both LV and right ventricular leads. Subsequently, a right-sided de novo biventricular pacemaker was implanted. In this instance, the PLSVC was beneficial because it isolated the existing leads from the new implant, thereby reducing the risk of SVC obstruction. Discussion Although implantation of pacemaker leads through a PLSVC constitutes a challenging procedure due to manoeuvring difficulties of the pacing leads into the cardiac chambers, in this particular case, the presence of PLSVC was beneficial because it meant that no leads were present in the true SVC, reducing the risk of occlusion and avoiding the need for lead extraction.

Abstract:
Automatic detection of heartbeat is critical for early cardiovascular disease prevention and diagnosis. Traditional feature methodologies based on expert knowledge cannot abstract and represent multidimensional and multi-view information. Hence traditional research on heartbeat detection pattern recognition cannot produce adequate results. The proposed method in this research used Dispersion Entropy (DisEn) on Multidistance Signal Level Difference (MSLD) for feature extraction and Support Vector Machine (SVM) method for classifying the ECG signals. DisEn generates 20 DE values as feature vectors for each MSLD signal with a distance D of 1 to 20. The datasets used in this research were obtained from the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia database of ECG signals that consist of forty-five patients was captured using 200 [adu/mV] amplification and a sampling frequency of 360 Hz. The experiments result using 5-fold cross-validation revealed that at distance D= 1-15 had the highest accuracy of 91% to classify the ECG data into Normal Sinus Rhythm (NSR), Left Bundle Branch Block (LBBB), and Atrial Fibrillation (AFIB) from the MIT-BIH Arrhythmias database.

AbstractIn this paper, we reconsider whether article-less languages have the DP projection, focusing on Tatar. We argue that putative correlations between the presence/absence of articles in a language and various DP-external phenomena (e.g. Left-Branch Extraction, superiority effects, and others), discussed by Bošković and Şener (2014), inter alia, do not hold if a broader range of languages is considered more carefully. Instead, we show that certain correlations obtain between the internal structure, syntactic position, case marking, and interpretation of. noun phrases found in distinct structural environments: direct objects, possessors, and complements of the so-called attributivizers. Specifically, we demonstrate a contrast between two types of nominals: accusative direct objects, possessors in ezafe-3, and complements of certain attributivizers share properties that contrast them with unmarked direct objects, possessors in ezafe-2, and complements of other attributivizers. We argue that postulating the DP projection in the former but not the latter type of noun phrases allows us to account for these observed correlations in a unified way.

Abstract:
According to Chomsky’s Labeling Algorithm the merger of two phrases, i.e., {XP, YP}, is labeled either via feature sharing between the two elements or by ignoring the lower copies of movement chains. It is not immediately clear, within this approach, how adjunction structures such as {aP, nP} are to be labeled. In those languages where adjectives show concord with nouns in φ features, the shared features may provide the label.This option is not available for non-concord languages, however. In this paper, we focus on the labeling of {aP, nP} in Turkish, a non-concord language. We claim that the categorizing n0 head in Turkish lacks grammatical features, as a result of which aP fails to find valued instances of its unvalued features. In the absence of feature sharing, aP is marked as a Spell-Out domain, and {aP, nP} is labeled as nP as soon as aP is sent to the interfaces. Since aP in Turkish is a Spell-Out domain, the left-branch extraction of adjectives (i.e., aP movement) is not possible. Moreover, the lack of any grammatical features on n0 in Turkish accounts for the availability of suspension of the plural morpheme.

Abstract:
An electrocardiogram (ECG) consists of five types of different waveforms or characteristics (P, QRS, and T) that represent electrical activity within the heart. Identification of time intervals and morphological appearance of the waves are the major measuring instruments to detect cardiac abnormality from ECG signals. The focus of this study is to classify five different types of heartbeats, including premature ventricular contraction (PVC), left bundle branch block (LBBB), right bundle branch block (RBBB), PACE, and atrial premature contraction (APC), to identify the exact condition of the heart. Prior to the classification, extensive experiments on feature extraction were performed to identify the specific events from ECG signals, such as P, QRS complex, and T waves. This study proposed the fusion technique, dual event-related moving average (DERMA) with the fractional Fourier-transform algorithm (FrlFT) to identify the abnormal and normal morphological events of the ECG signals. The purpose of the DERMA fusion technique is to analyze certain areas of interest in ECG peaks to identify the desired location, whereas FrlFT analyzes the ECG waveform using a time-frequency plane. Furthermore, detected highest and lowest components of the ECG signal such as peaks, the time interval between the peaks, and other necessary parameters were utilized to develop an automatic model. In the last stage of the experiment, two supervised learning models, namely support vector machine and K-nearest neighbor, were trained to classify the cardiac condition from ECG signals. Moreover, two types of datasets were used in this experiment, specifically MIT-BIH Arrhythmia with 48 subjects and the newly disclosed Shaoxing and Ningbo People’s Hospital (SPNH) database, which contains over 10,000 patients. The performance of the experimental setup produced overwhelming results, which show around 99.99% accuracy, 99.96% sensitivity, and 99.9% specificity.

Abstract:
In this research, a heartbeat classification method is presented based on evolutionary feature optimization using differential evolution (DE) and classification using a probabilistic neural network (PNN) to discriminate between normal and arrhythmic heartbeats. The proposed method follows four steps: (1) preprocessing, (2) heartbeat segmentation, (3) DE feature optimization, and (4) PNN classification. In this method, we have employed direct signal amplitude points constituting the heartbeat acquired from the ECG holter device with no secondary feature extraction step usually used in case of hand-crafted, frequency transformation or other features. The heartbeat types include normal, left bundle branch block, right bundle branch block, premature ventricular contraction, atrial premature, ventricular escape, ventricular flutter and paced beat. Using ECG records from the MIT-BIH, heartbeats are identified to start at 250 ms before and end at 450 ms after the respective R-peak positions. In the next step, the DE method is applied to reduce and optimize the direct heartbeat features. Although complex and highly computational ECG heartbeat classification algorithms have been proposed in the literature, they failed to achieve high performance in detecting some minority heartbeat categories, especially for imbalanced datasets. To overcome this challenge, we propose an optimization step for the deep CNN model using a novel classification metric called the Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC). This function focuses on arrhythmia (minority) heartbeat classes by increasing their importance. Maximum MCC is used as a fitness function to identify the optimum combination of features for the uncorrelated and non-uniformly distributed eight beat class samples. The proposed DE-PNN scheme can provide better classification accuracy considering 8 classes with only 36 features optimized from a 253 element feature set implying an 85.77% reduction in direct amplitude features. Our proposed method achieved overall 99.33% accuracy, 94.56% F1, 93.84% sensitivity, and 99.21% specificity.

Abstract:
Premature Ventricular Contractions (PVC) arrhythmias can be associated with sudden death and acute myocardial infarction, occurring in 50% of the population for Holter monitoring. PVC patterns are very hard to be recognized since their waveforms can be confused with other heartbeats, such as Right and Left Bundle Branch Blocks. This work proposes a new approach for PVC recognition, based on Gaussian Naive Bayes algorithm and AMUSE (Algorithm for Multiple Unknown Signal Extraction), which is a method for the blind source separation problem. This approach provides a set of attributes that are combined by Linear Discriminant Analysis, allowing the training of an ensemble learning. The Analytic Hierarchy Process weights each learned model according to its importance, obtained from the performance metrics. This approach has some advantages over baseline methods since it does not use a pre-processing stage and employs a simple machine learning model trained using only two parameters for each feature. Using a standard dataset for training and test phases, the proposed approach achieves 98.75% accuracy, 90.65% sensitivity, and 99.46% specificity. The best performance was 99.57% accuracy, 98.64% sensitivity, and 99.65% specificity for other datasets. In general, the proposed approach is better than 66% of the state-of-the-art methods concerning accuracy

Abstract:
Coronary transport capacity was estimated in eight sedentary control and eight exercise-trained anesthetized dogs by determining the differences between base line and the highest coronary blood flow and permeability-surface area product (PS) obtained during maximal adenosine vasodilation with coronary perfusion pressure constant. The anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery was cannulated and pump-perfused under constant-pressure conditions (approximately equal to 100 Torr) while aortic, central venous, and coronary perfusion pressures, heart rate, electrocardiogram, and coronary flow were monitored. Myocardial extraction and PS of 51Cr-labeled ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid were determined with the single-injection indicator-diffusion method. The efficacy of the 16 +/- 1 wk exercise training program was shown by significant increases in the succinate dehydrogenase activities of the gastrocnemius, gluteus medialis, and long head of triceps brachii muscles. There were no differences between control and trained dogs for either resting coronary blood flow or PS. During maximal vasodilation with adenosine, the trained dogs had significantly lower perfusion pressures with constant flow and, with constant-pressure vasodilation, greater coronary blood flow and PS. It is concluded that exercise training in dogs induces an increased coronary transport capacity that includes increases in coronary blood flow capacity (26% of control) and capillary diffusion capacity (82% of control).

Abstract:
The article deduces a modified version of the traditional ban on movement out of moved elements that provides a new perspective on it. Under the proposed analysis, the problem with the movement of YP out of moved XP does not arise at the point where YP moves out of XP, as in previous accounts. Instead, it arises already with the movement of XP: XP itself cannot undergo movement in this case. Any later movement out of XP is then trivially blocked. The proposed analysis leaves room for movement out of moved elements to take place in well-defined contexts. Several constructions bear this out, including German/Dutch r-pronoun constructions, Slavic left-branch extraction, and quantifier float more generally. What the proposed analysis deduces is then not the traditional ban on movement out of moved elements, but a ban on movement of phases with nonagreeing specifiers, which the article argues should replace the former ban. As a result, the analysis also extends to the immobility of verb-second clauses in German. The article also provides a new perspective on the Adjunct Condition (the ban on movement out of adjuncts). It shows that movement out of adjuncts is possible in the same configuration as movement out of moved elements. The proposed account of the latter is then extended to the Adjunct Condition. The article also proposes a labeling-based account of the Coordinate Structure Constraint, which also captures the across-the-board-movement exception.

Abstract:
Timely diagnosis and earlier detection of the dangerous heart conditions will reduce the mortality rate and save life of the patient. For that, it is necessary to automate the classi?cation and prediction of Cardiac Arrhythmia. Raw ECG signal is extracted from the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia database, followed by preprocessing and feature extraction using wavelet transform method. Further the extracted features are used for the classification of four different cardiac arrhythmias such as Bradycardia, Tachycardia, Left and Right Bundle Branch Block. Comparative study on the five different classifiers namely Decision trees, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Discriminant Analysis, k-Nearest Neighbor Classifiers (KNN), Ensemble Classifiers, and its variants are experimented in the proposed work. Among these, the weighted KNN classifier gives higher accuracy (90.3%) and prediction speed (10,000 observations per second) with reduced training time (4.329 seconds), compared with the existing state of the art methods. The prediction speed is 10,000 numbers of observations per second which identifies the heart problem earlier, and so appropriate treatment can be given to the patient. To further improve the classification accuracy, three optimizable classifiers namely Optimizable KNN, optimizable SVM, optimizable ensemble are used for the hyper parameter tunning and weight optimization. The optimizable SVM provides better perform (accuracy 93.4 %) among the three optimizable classifiers as well as the existing state of the art works. Therefore, the proposed work used for earlier Cardiac arrhythmia disease diagnosis and prognosis.

Abstract:
Archeology is the only branch of human study that relies more on material remains left by people than on direct observation of human behavior or on written evidence. This focus on material evidence compels archaeologists to improve the methods and techniques of collecting and interpreting data that ensure the extraction of maximum information from available sources. The article provides an analysis of existing national and foreign information and geoinformation systems representing data on archaeological finds, cultural sites, and research documentation. A description of the existing standards, which regulate the list of attributes of geoarchaeological objects, is provided. The article also describes the stages of conceptual and logical modeling of the “ArchaeoNomos” database, which represents a unified repository for all data accompanying archaeological investigations, archaeological research and design, and documentation of research activities of the Scientific Research Center “Baikal Region” of Irkutsk State University. The problem of automating the processes of storage, processing, modification, and interpretation of geoarchaeological data is formulated. The system analysis of the subject area, system specification of an application that works with a database, the surveying specialists of the subject area to identify associations between database objects are presented. The infological and physical models of data presentation in the database are described, which allows the integration of the accumulated archaeological data into larger scientific associations. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of using relational databases as repositories for archaeological data are outlined. The purpose of creating the “ArchaeoNomos” database is to implement measures for the preservation of the archaeological heritage, including the introduction and the use of the database by scientists that systematize and automate access to accumulated scientific data, including literary sources. The sub-goals include solving the problem of organizing and storing archaeological data, implementing multilingual interfaces in the information system, organizing information support for field and laboratory archaeological research, transferring the physical (nondigital) historical data storage system to a digital system. “ArchaeoNomos” database allows to keep records, analyze, visualize, and interpret data on geoarchaeological sites of Irkutsk and the Irkutsk region.

Abstract:
Odontogenic lesions of the trigeminal nerve branch system (neuritis, neuralgia, odontalgia) that tend to have a long chronic course are more common in middle and old age. They can be caused by defects in the treatment and restoration of teeth, inflammatory and traumatic processes in the maxillofacial region, and others. The dentist should distinguish between the terms: "odontalgia" and "odontogenic trigeminal neuralgia". Odontogenic neuralgias do not disappear after the elimination of the main odontogenic pathological focus. If after the sanitation of the oral cavity pain disappears, then we are talking about odontalgia. Sometimes it is very difficult to find the cause of the disease. Pain in the facial area and occipital region of the head can also occur with osteochondrosis of the cervical ridge and provoke pain in the system of the trigeminal nerve branches. Pain and paresthesias can occur in the occipital region of the head and neck, and then spread to the parietal, zygomatic region or the entire face. More often the pain radiates to the frontal region, orbit, or ear. The reverse development of the syndrome may also occur: pain sensations begin in the face and spread to the cervico-occipital region. The article presents a case of odontalgia of the maxillofacial region that arose after the treatment of complicated caries of the 26th tooth. The pain periodically appeared in the left occipital region, and then passed to the orbit; a feeling of distension in the eyeball appeared, then the pain passed to the left upper jaw and gradually subsided. The patient described pain as acute, appeared in the form of seizures, and was not associated with the action of thermal stimuli. After clinical and laboratory examination, the oral cavity was sanitized, including the course of treatment of generalized periodontitis, restoration of the destroyed crown of tooth 23, and root canal therapy of previously treated tooth 26 for chronic pulpitis complicated by periodontitis. An old filling was removed from the tooth (no R-contrast lining material was found at the bottom of the tooth cavity). After the preparation of the tooth cavity, an attempt was made to carry out high-quality endodontic treatment, but the root canals were completely obliterated. Endodontic retreatment of the tooth 26 was unsuccessful. An antiseptic solution was left at the bottom of the tooth cavity, then a paste and a phosphate cement pad were placed; after that a photocomposite restoration was done. In parallel, a course of the treatment for osteochondrosis of the cervical spine was carried out by a neurologist. The performed oral sanitation and the treatment of cervical osteochondrosis failed to be effective. Pain in the back of the head and maxillofacial area practically did not change, continued with the same frequency and intensity. Additional clinical, laboratory and X-ray examination did not allow us to establish an obvious cause of the disease. Therefore, after the medical consultation with doctors of related specialties (oral surgeons, neurologists), we decided to perform therapija ex juvantibus, i.e. to remove the "causal" tooth. After the 26 tooth was removed, the pain completely disappeared. The above case testifies that sometimes it can be very difficult to establish the cause of neurological pain, and thus, to make correct diagnosis and to prescribe proper treatment. It is possible to presume that recurrent pain attacks in the left occipital region that move to the orbit of the eye, a feeling of distension of the eyeball, pain in the left upper jaw, slowly subsiding and not associated with the action of thermal stimuli were provoked by the painful condition of the pulp-periodontal complex of tooth 26, which did not respond to endodontic treatment. The extraction of the tooth led to the complete disappearance of neurological pain, which is characteristic of odontalgia of the maxillofacial region.

Abstract:
Background: Forensic Dentistry is one of the branch of Forensic Medicine which deals with the complete handling of dental evidence, estimation and examination and the evidence obtained would be used in the court for justice. Kvaal and Solheim given a method used on adults for calculation of age with the help of morphological and radiological methods, but extraction was still required. Hence to improve this procedure Kvaal et al made a method which is totally based on radiological analysis. Aims and Objective: The present study was designed to compare the forensic age assessment using Kvaal’s method and digital orthopantomographs with the actual age of the subjects. Materials and Methods: Present observational study was conducted in subjects with all the required complement of teeth on either right or left side, completely erupted clinical crown, without any morphological abnormalities for age estimation by Kvaal’s method with digital orthopantomograph as and compared with actual age of subjects. Results: In the present study out of 100 subjects, maximum number of subjects i.e. 61 were in the age group of 20 – 29 and minimum number of subjects i.e. 7 were in the age group of 50 –59. 43 were females and 57 were males. The regression equation was derived for all six studied teeth and coefficient of determination R2 was found for all the individual six teeth. Coefficient of determination was highest for lower first premolar (0.517) followed by upper central incisor (0.178), lower canine (0.134), lower lateral incisors, upper second premolar and upper lateral incisors. M & W-L were found significant predictors for lower first premolar, lower canine and upper central incisors. Similarly, coefficient of determination (R2) was significant higher for lower three teeth (0.478) than upper three teeth (0.069) with M & W-L were significant predictor. Regression equation derived for all six teeth together shows significant coefficient of determination R2(0.430) with M, W-L both are significant predictors. No statistically significant difference between the actual age and estimated age for all individual six teeth was noted. Mean difference lowest for lower first premolar (0.001) followed by lower canine (0.007). Conclusion: We noted that age assessment using Kvaal’s method with digital orthopantomographas and actual age of the subjects were comparable & no significant difference was noted. Kvaal’s method with digital orthopantomographas is a better option for age estimation without teeth removal.

Abstract:
During the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase, a major fraction of mass is spread by the stars (0.6 - 10 M⊙) in the interstellar medium (ISM) in the form of dust. In the left phase of the post-main sequence evolution in the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram, these dust are found to be surrounding the white dwarfs (WD). Some small fraction of dust is also formed in the circumstellar shells and cavities around WD which is usually a source of infrared (IR) excess. The formation and evolution of such IR dust structures are the results of high-pressure events such as the Helium shell flash (thermal pulse) and stellar winds, and such structures are crucial in the study of interaction phenomena in ISM. This research project is focused on the study of an isolated dust structure near the white dwarf WD0011-399 located at R.A. (J2000) 00h 13m 47.48s and Dec. (J2000) -39° 370 24.2800 using Improved Reprocessing of the IRAS (IRIS), AKARI and Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) surveys from SkyView Virtual Observatory along with SIMBAD Astronomical Database and Gaia Archive of ESA. The size of the cavity under study is 7.43 pc×2.90 pc, 2.99pc×0.99pc, and 1.26×0.53pc with an inclination angle of 71.12°, 75.73°, and 68.48° respectively in IRIS, AKARI and WISE data suggesting the cavity is neither a face-on nor an edge-on. The relative flux density of the region has been studied through pixel extraction of Far-Infrared (FIR) images and dust color temperature along with dust mass has been calculated. Using IRIS data, the temperature of the isolated region is found between a maximum value of 36.82±4.30 K to a minimum of 22.59±2.32 K with an offset of 14.23 K. The average temperature of the region is 28.22±0.18 K. Following similar procedures for AKARI data, the temperature is found between a maximum of 26.37±3.56 K and a minimum of 16.32±1.47 K with an offset of 10.06K. The average temperature is 19.25±0.15 K. Similarly, using WISE data, the temperature is found between a maximum of 353.72±18.54 K and a minimum of 307.24±4.69 K with an offset of 46.48K. The average temperature is 316.62±0.81 K. High value of offset temperature suggests that the cavity might be evolving with disruptions from background radiative sources. Approximately Gaussian distribution of the temperature in all the surveys implies that the region might be tending towards local thermodynamic equilibrium. The total mass of the structure is estimated to be around 0.03±1.5×10−6M⊙, 1.6×10−3±1.4×10−5 M⊙, and 10−7±3×10−10 M⊙ using IRIS, AKARI, and WISE data respectively. The Jean’s mass of the structure is calculated assuming the structure is a non-degenerate gas, which is estimated around 2001.93M⊙, 178.44M⊙, and 121.47M⊙ respectively using IRIS, AKARI, and WISE data. Since Jean’s mass is much greater than the mass of the structure there seems no possibility of star formation within the region of interest. The color maps illustrate identical distribution for all wavelengths, however, no significant relation is observed between dust color temperature and dust mass.

Abstract:
The electrocardiogram (ECG) is one of the most extensively employed signals used in the diagnosis and prediction of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The ECG signals can capture the heart’s rhythmic irregularities, commonly known as arrhythmias. A careful study of ECG signals is crucial for precise diagnoses of patients’ acute and chronic heart conditions. In this study, we propose a two-dimensional (2-D) convolutional neural network (CNN) model for the classification of ECG signals into eight classes; namely, normal beat, premature ventricular contraction beat, paced beat, right bundle branch block beat, left bundle branch block beat, atrial premature contraction beat, ventricular flutter wave beat, and ventricular escape beat. The one-dimensional ECG time series signals are transformed into 2-D spectrograms through short-time Fourier transform. The 2-D CNN model consisting of four convolutional layers and four pooling layers is designed for extracting robust features from the input spectrograms. Our proposed methodology is evaluated on a publicly available MIT-BIH arrhythmia dataset. We achieved a state-of-the-art average classification accuracy of 99.11%, which is better than those of recently reported results in classifying similar types of arrhythmias. The performance is significant in other indices as well, including sensitivity and specificity, which indicates the success of the proposed method.

Abstract:
This paper presents a method of ground target detection using reflected signals of BeiDou satellites. The phase difference information, which is the output of the phase-lock loop (PLL) in the tracking process, is an important observation in this technique. The geometric relationships between the specular point of different BeiDou satellites and the target are established. In addition, the detection and false alarm probability are also analyzed. In order to verify the reliability of the method, an experiment in the suburb area of Beijing was completed. The target was placed in the coverage area of the left-handed circular polarization (LHCP) antenna for two time periods (10–20 s and 40–55 s). By observing the phase difference in BeiDou reflected signals in the presence of a target, it was found that the changing trend was in good agreement with the target placement time periods. In the second experiment, the target moved east and west at a speed of 0.5 m/s, and the range of motion was 6 m. During the acquisition of the BeiDou reflection signal, the target passed through the antenna 14 times. The performance of target detection with different parameters was observed by extracting in-phase (I) branch component data, phase difference information, and the carrier-to-noise ratio (CNR) of five BeiDou reflected signals. The experimental results allowed three conclusions to be drawn as follows: (1) The target detection performance of the three parameters has a certain relationship with the altitude angle and the azimuth angle of the satellite; (2) target motion direction information can be reflected in the change of the satellite I branch component data; (3) The CNR information of different satellite reflected signals varies greatly when the target moves, which is quite different from that of the first experimental target when it is stationary. Thus, the feasibility of target detection using BeiDou reflection signal was demonstrated through these two experiments.

Abstract:
Hemlock woolly adelgid (Adelges tsugae) (HWA) is an introduced piercing, sucking insect that affects hemlocks (Tsuga spp.) by extracting carbohydrates from the xylem ray parenchyma cells. Left untreated, HWA will result in reduced shoot growth, branch dieback, and ultimately tree death. In this study, the insecticide IMA-jet (5% imidacloprid w/w) was applied by trunk microinjection with the Arborjet Tree I.V. using the VIPER method. Sixteen randomly selected HWA-infested hemlocks were treated in 2002 and 2003 and eight trees were selected as untreated controls. Eight infested branch samples per tree were cut each year (2003, 2004, and 2005) and assessed. Four parameters were used to assess the efficacy and duration of treatments. These were percent HWA mortality, total and live HWA per linear centimeter shoot growth, and current-year shoot growth. The eastern hemlock (T. canadensis) in this study had high initial HWA pressure. In the 3 years of the study, winter low temperatures were insufficient to cause an appreciable or sustainable reduction in infestation levels. In the controls, HWA increased and hemlock growth decreased. Treatment with stem-injected imidacloprid did not provide a quick knockdown of the HWA; rather, it required time (i.e., at least 1 year). In the year after a second treatment, we observed sufficiently high HWA mortality for hemlock to resume growth. We have a high degree of confidence that a repeat treatment increased the levels of imidacloprid for the duration of efficacy observed. We recommend a 2× dosage (e.g., for trees in the 30 to 59 cm [12 to 23.6 in] size class, increase from 0.08 g A.I. to 0.16 gm A.I./cm trunk diameter at breast height [dbh]) for an increased level of efficacy to extend the injection interval (to once every 2 years) and to limit the number of wounds a tree receives to centimeters dbh/5 (dbh in/2). The new rate recommendations are reflected on the IMA-jet label amended in 2006. These results demonstrate that hemlock with high HWA pressure can be successfully treated using IMA-jet and the Arborjet Tree I.V. system.
