Bayesian Classifier with Simplified Learning Phase for Detecting Microcalcifications in Digital Mammograms by Imad Zyout, Ikhlas Abdel-Qader, Christina Jacobs

“…This proposed work extracts textural, spectral, and statistical features of each input mammogram and generates models of real MCs to be used as training samples through a simplified learning phase of the Bayesian classifier. Followed by an estimation of the classifier's decision function parameters, a mammogram is segmented into the identified targets (MCs) against background (healthy tissue). …”

Development and evolution of mathematical and econometric models for the analysis of macroeconomic processes (including historical perspective) and their forecasting by A. P. Anufrieva

“…The FAVAR model with international reserves as the monetary policy variable and MIACR where the responses of one-year government bond rate and consumer index were positive have been estimated as the main instruments. The impulse responses shown indicate that the Russian authorities had a lack of monetary policy independence due to the country’s high dependence on the oil and natural gas sectors, which does not reveal evidence of monetary policy impact on lower consumer prices.…”

Platinum Nanoparticles Loaded on Activated Carbon as Novel Adsorbent for the Removal of Congo Red by M. Ghaedi, S. J. Hossaini, S. Ramezani

“…The calculated values of free energy of adsorption (negative value) indicate that the adsorption process is spontaneous. The estimated values of enthalpy and entropy both show the positive sign, which indicate that the adsorption process is endothermic and the dye molecules are organized on the adsorbent surface in more randomly fashion than in solution. …”
