Objective To investigate the expression of beta-adrenergic receptor( -AR) in glioma cells and the effect of blocking -adrenergic receptors on glioma cell proliferation. Methods: The expression of beta-adrenergic receptor in glioma LN229 and U251 cells were detected by real time PCR and Western Blotting....

The research on cost stickiness behavior is mainly about sales & administrative cost and manufacturing industry, lacking studies on particular niche business. Therefore, the real estate industry paid highly attention was chosen as the research object and an empirical analysis of cost stickiness behavior...

Use all A-share listed companies of main board market in 2012 as samples, this paper investigate the influence of environmental information disclosure behavior on the firm future market value and investors` confidence in capital market. The research conclusion indicate that: (1)The listed companies`...

In order to improve the communication efficiency of the spacecraft in the Proximity space link, a GBN-ARQ scheme is designed based on the proximity-1 protocol. On the basis of this, to maximize the system throughput and normalized throughput, the data frame length and the sliding window length are optimized,...

Under the background of the less connection between teachers and students in universities and the rapid development of the Internet, and according to the needs of students and teachers, the topic was to design and develop university research and academic platform prototype based on Android. First of...

The dynamic pressure lubrication theoretical model of worm gear ZC1 is established, the formula of hydrodynamic lubrication discretization for the calculation of the mixed friction efficiency of circular cylindrical worm and worm pair is achieved and the formula and process for solving the hybrid friction...

In this paper we analyse insurance data using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN)[1]. In particular, we use ANN for the problem of Loss Reserving. Loss reserving is the practice of estimating the future payments for the claims which have occurred on an insurance portfolio. A difficulty in forecasting future...

In the paper, an algorithm based on Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform is proposed for process denoising. Use the variance of the wavelet coefficients at different scales to estimate the parameters of process. Adopting Maximum a Posteriori estimator estimates the wavelet coefficients of process. The...

In 1980s, many empirical researches’ findings (i.e., Shiller(1984), Thaler (1985) et al. ) did not support efficient market hypothesis (EMH). Previous studies (e.g., Bernartzi and Thaler, 1995) related to behavioral model suggest that certain market anomalies are consistent with the presence of irrational...

Web service is very important for both e-commerce and e-government. However, web service process based on syntax level can’t deal with some user query very effectively. In order to make user get more information on the internet, semantic web is presented and a lot of related research results have been...

A novel hybrid C+L band EDFA/RFA is designed to share the 1480 nm pump laser(s). The concepts are based on three-level amplification mechanism for the C band EDFA and Raman shift amplification mechanism for the L band RFA, respectively. It has the advantage to simplify the pump source design. The optimum...

The portfolio optimization model, initially proposed by Markowitz in 1952 and known as mean-variance model (MV model), is applied to find the optimized allocation among assets to get higher investment return and lower investment risk. However, the MV model did not consider some practical limitations...

Once the input values are given, the active rules in a fuzzy inference execution have been determined. Based on the observation, our approach is to identify the active rules before fuzzy inference execution. To achieve this goal, our architecture provides the following two mechanisms: (1) a mechanism...

This paper adopts the grey prediction methods, to investigate the return and volatility of major index futures among American and Eurasian markets. The grey relational theory and GM(1,N) model are further used to observe the volatility spillover effect and find the main influence factor in the volatility...

Image up-sampling is found to be a very effective technique useful in today’s digital image processing applications or rendering devices. In image up-sampling, an image is enhanced from a lower resolution to a higher resolution with the degree of enhancement depending upon application requirements. It...

License plate detection process can be divided in two parts 1] plate extraction, 2] character segmentation. License plate detection relies on illumination conditions, background and mainly on camera resolution. There is absence of any common standard to compare various algorithms for a LPD system, because...
