In vivo human head MRI at 10.5T: a radiofrequency safety study and preliminary imaging results
(Wiley, 2020)Purpose: The purpose of this study is to safely acquire the first human head images at 10.5T. Methods: To ensure safety of subjects, we validated the electromagnetic simulation model of our coil. We obtained quantitative ... -
Improving radiofrequency power and specific absorption rate management with bumped transmit elements in ultra-high field MRI
(Wiley, 2020)Purpose: In this study, we investigate a strategy to reduce the local specific absorption rate (SAR) while keeping constant inside the region of interest (ROI) at the ultra‐high field (B0 ≥ 7T) MRI. Methods: Locally ... -
A transfer-learning approach for accelerated MRI using deep neural networks
(Wiley, 2020)Purpose: Neural networks have received recent interest for reconstruction of undersampled MR acquisitions. Ideally, network performance should be optimized by drawing the training and testing data from the same domain. In ... -
A machine learning‐based detection of earthquake precursors using ionospheric data
(Blackwell Publishing, 2020)Detection of precursors of strong earthquakes is a challenging research area. Recently, it has been shown that strong earthquakes affect electron distribution in the regional ionosphere with indirectly observable changes ... -
Size aftereffect is non-local
(Elsevier, 2020)It is well known that prolonged exposure to a certain size stimulus alters the perceived size of a subsequently presented stimulus at the same location. How the rest of the visual space is affected by this size adaptation, ... -
Corrigendum to “representations of ⁎-semigroups associated to invariant kernels with values adjointable operators” [Linear Algebra Appl. 486 (2015) 361–388]
(2020)We correct a lemma by adding the assumption that the ordered ⁎-space is Archimedean and show by counter-examples and examples that this is needed. -
Expression levels of SMAD specific E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 2 (Smurf2) and its interacting partners show region-specific alterations during brain aging
(Elsevier, 2020)Aging occurs due to a combination of several factors, such as telomere attrition, cellular senescence, and stem cell exhaustion. The telomere attrition-dependent cellular senescence is regulated by increased levels of SMAD ... -
Zebrafish brain RNA sequencing reveals that cell adhesion molecules are critical in brain aging
(Elsevier, 2020)Brain aging is a complex process, which involves multiple pathways including various components from cellular to molecular. This study aimed to investigate the gene expression changes in zebrafish brains through young-adult ... -
Impact of COVID-19 outbreak on asymmetric multifractality of gold and oil prices
(Elsevier, 2020)This paper examines the impacts of COVID-19 on the multifractality of gold and oil prices based on upward and downward trends. We apply the Asymmetric Multifractal Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (A-MF-DFA) approach to ... -
Does bitcoin co-move and share risk with Sukuk and world and regional Islamic stock markets? Evidence using a time-frequency approach
(Elsevier, 2020)This paper examines the co-movements between Bitcoin (BTC) and the Dow Jones World Stock Market Index, regional Islamic stock markets, and Sukuk markets. We apply cross wavelet transform and wavelet coherence analysis with ... -
Improving performance and stability in quantum dot-sensitized solar cell through single layer graphene/Cu2S nanocomposite counter electrode
(Elsevier, 2020)In this work, we presented an effective nanocomposite to modify the Cu2S film by employing single layer graphene (SLG) frameworks via chemical vapor deposition, and utilized this nanocomposite as counter electrode (CE) ... -
A stochastic framework to evaluate the impact of agricultural load flexibility on the sizing of renewable energy systems
(Elsevier, 2020)Pumping of water for agriculture can be a flexible component of electric demand. In this study, a framework that involves scenario based stochastic programming models is developed to examine the effect of load shifting on ... -
Who cheats? An examination of light and dark personality traits as predictors of infidelity
(Elsevier, 2020)Acts of infidelity are violations of the exclusivity norm of close relationships, and some individuals engage in infidelity more than others. Previous studies show that individuals high in the Dark Triad, the malevolent ... -
Key protected classification for collaborative learning
(Elsevier, 2020)Large-scale datasets play a fundamental role in training deep learning models. However, dataset collection is difficult in domains that involve sensitive information. Collaborative learning techniques provide a privacy-preserving ... -
Nonlinear identification and optimal feedforward friction compensation for a motion platform
(Elsevier, 2020)In this study, we present a method of nonlinear identification and optimal feedforward friction compensation for an industrial single degree of freedom motion platform. The platform has precise reference tracking requirements ... -
Riding the wave of crypto-exuberance: the potential misusage of corporate blockchain announcements
(Elsevier, 2020)Cryptocurrencies have been broadly scrutinised in recent times for a host of concerning regulatory and cybercriminality issues. Although steps have been taken to promote regulatory sufficiency in the near future, we examine ... -
Alternative screening method for analyzing the water samples through an electrical microfluidics chip with classical microbiological assay comparison of P. aeruginosa
(Elsevier, 2020)Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a pathogenic bacterium in fresh water supplies that creates a risk for public health. Microbiological analysis of drinking water samples is time consuming and requires qualified personnel. Here ... -
Structural and optical properties of Cu-doped ZnAl2O4 and its application as photocatalyst for Cr(VI) reduction under sunlight
(Elsevier, 2020)Cu-doped ZnAl2O4 spinel oxides (Zn(1-x)CuxAl2O4, 0.0 ≤ x ≤ 1.0) were synthesized by co-precipitation method at 800 °C. The X-ray diffraction analysis of the as-prepared powders confirmed a spinel structure with a space ... -
