OSEGNET: OPERATIONAL SEGMENTATION NETWORK FOR COVID-19 DETECTION USING CHEST X-RAY IMAGES
( IEEE , 2022 , Conference Paper)Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been diagnosed automatically using Machine Learning algorithms over chest X-ray (CXR) images. However, most of the earlier studies used Deep Learning models over scarce datasets ... -
Osmotic pressure estimation using the Pitzer equation for forward osmosis modelling
( Taylor and Francis Ltd. , 2020 , Article)Forward osmosis (FO) has received widespread recognition in the past decade due to its potential low energy production of water. This study presents a new model analysis for predicting the water flux in FO systems when ... -
Osmotic-driven release of papaverine hydrochloride from novel poly(decane-co-tricarballylate) elastomeric matrices
( Newlands Press Ltd , 2010 , Article)Background: We have recently reported on the synthesis, characterization and biocompatibility of a novel family of visible-light photocrosslinked poly(diol-co-tricarballylate) elastomers intended for use in drug delivery ... -
Osseointegration Pharmacology: A Systematic Mapping Using Artificial Intelligence
( Acta Materialia Inc , 2021 , Article)Clinical performance of osseointegrated implants could be compromised by the medications taken by patients. The effect of a specific medication on osseointegration can be easily investigated using traditional systematic ... -
Osteogenesis imperfecta tooth level phenotype analysis: Cross-sectional study
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)IntroductionDental anomalies in Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), such as tooth discoloration, pulp obliteration (calcified dental pulp space), and taurodontism (enlarged dental pulp space) vary between and within patients. ... -
Osteopontin: A Promising Therapeutic Target in Cardiac Fibrosis
( NLM (Medline) , 2019 , Article)Osteopontin (OPN) is recognized for its significant roles in both physiological and pathological processes. Initially, OPN was recognized as a cytokine with pro-inflammatory actions. More recently, OPN has emerged as a ... -
Osteoporosis in patients with stroke: A cross-sectional study
( Medknow Publications , 2016 , Article)Stroke-related impairments and inactivity contribute to the accelerated development of bone mass removal. However, the extent of decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) after stroke and all factors that influence such rapid ... -
Other sources of FDIs in Sub-Saharan Africa: The case of Gulf Cooperation Council states
( Elsevier Inc. , 2019 , Article)Academic research on Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs) from emerging economies (EE) in Africa, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), has focused primarily on Chinese investments at the exclusion of investment activities ... -
Out-of-pocket expenditure on childhood infections and its financial burden on Indian households: Evidence from nationally representative household survey (2017–18)
( Public Library of Science , 2022 , Article)The key objective of this research was to estimate out of pocket expenditure (OOPE) incurred by the Indian households for the treatment of childhood infections. We estimated OOPE estimates on outpatient care and hospitalization ... -
Outage analysis of hybrid FSO/RF systems based on finite-state Markov chain modeling
( IEEE , 2014 , Conference Paper)In this paper, we analyze the outage probability of a hybrid free-space optical/radio-frequency (FSO/RF) communication system with soft-switching. In soft-switching approach, either one of the links or both links can be ... -
Outage analysis of selective cooperation in underlay cognitive networks with fixed gain relays and primary interference modeling
( IEEE , 2012 , Conference Paper)Selective cooperation is a well investigated technique in non-cognitive networks for efficient spectrum utilization and performance improvement. However, it is still a nascent topic for underlay cognitive networks. Recently, ... -
Outage optimal resource allocation for two-hop multiuser multirelay cooperative communication in OFDMA upstream
( IEEE , 2011 , Conference Paper)We investigate an outage optimal adaptive resource allocation scheme for the upstream of two-hop OFDMA based decode-and-forward cooperative relay systems. The objective of this work is to design resource allocation strategy, ... -
Outage performance of cooperative systems under IQ imbalance
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2014 , Article)In this contribution, we investigate the outage performance of OFDM-based Decode and Forward (DF), Amplify and Forward (AF) and Controlled DF (CDF) cooperative systems under IQ Imbalance (IQI). In particular, tractable and ... -
Outage performance of incremental relaying networks with OFDM subcarriers mapping schemes
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2014 , Conference Paper)The scarcity of radio resources coupled with the high data rate demands in the last few years, induced incremental relaying techniques one of the most promising technologies. This is simply because it allows reaping spatial ... -
Outage performance of multi-hop hybrid FSO/RF communication systems
