    The primary idea behind our adaptive neighbor discovery schemes should be to provide feedback for that transmitting nodes permitting individuals to prevent transmitting once they've been discovered by their neighbors. During this paper, motivated using the growing prevalence of multipack reception (MPR) technologies for example CDMA and MIMO, we study neighbor discovery in MPR systems which allow packets from multiple synchronized transmitters to obtain received effectively in the receiver. Beginning obtaining a clique of n nodes, we first evaluate an easy Aloha-like formula and show needed time for you to uncover all neighbors wealthy in probability when permitting around k synchronized transmissions. Neighbor discovery is most likely the procedures in configuring and controlling a hidden network. Most existing studies on neighbor discovery assume just one-packet reception model where just only one packet may be received effectively in the receiver. You have to design two adaptive neighbor discovery calculations that dynamically adjust the transmission probability for every node. We consider first a clique of n nodes by which node transmissions are synchronous and the amount of nodes, n, is famous. We show the adaptive calculations yield an apparent difference within the Aloha-like request any clique with n nodes and they are thus order-optimal. Finally, we evaluate our calculations within the general multi-hop network setting. We show the best possible bound of for the Aloha-like formula once the maximum node degree is D that's typically an issue in n worse in comparison with optimal. In addition, when D is large, we show the adaptive calculations are order optimal, i.e., possess a running time, which inserts the lower bound for the problem

    A Fast Data Structure for Anagrams

    In this paper, we are presenting a data structure, which stores the given dictionary data in a hash table called PRIME , by using fundamental theorem on Arithmetic to generate a key for each dictionary word, and stores the word in the hash table based on the key. As compared to tree-based techniques PRIME table generates anagram for the given random word in O(1) time, time to construct a PRIME table depends on the number of words in the dictionary. If dictionary has ‘n’ words then the time to develop the PRIME table is O(n). Categories and Subject descriptors: Problem solving, search and control methods

    Aims: To describe hypertension-related cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) phenotypes in the UK Biobank considering variations across patient populations. Methods and results: We studied 39 095 (51.5% women, mean age: 63.9 ± 7.7 years, 38.6% hypertensive) participants with CMR data available. Hypertension status was ascertained through health record linkage. Associations between hypertension and CMR metrics were estimated using multivariable linear regression adjusting for major vascular risk factors. Stratified analyses were performed by sex, ethnicity, time since hypertension diagnosis, and blood pressure (BP) control. Results are standardized beta coefficients, 95% confidence intervals, and P-values corrected for multiple testing. Hypertension was associated with concentric left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy (increased LV mass, wall thickness, concentricity index), poorer LV function (lower global function index, worse global longitudinal strain), larger left atrial (LA) volumes, lower LA ejection fraction, and lower aortic distensibility. Hypertension was linked to significantly lower myocardial native T1 and increased LV ejection fraction. Women had greater hypertension-related reduction in aortic compliance than men. The degree of hypertension-related LV hypertrophy was greatest in Black ethnicities. Increasing time since diagnosis of hypertension was linked to adverse remodelling. Hypertension-related remodelling was substantially attenuated in hypertensives with good BP control. Conclusion: Hypertension was associated with concentric LV hypertrophy, reduced LV function, dilated poorer functioning LA, and reduced aortic compliance. Whilst the overall pattern of remodelling was consistent across populations, women had greater hypertension-related reduction in aortic compliance and Black ethnicities showed the greatest LV mass increase. Importantly, adverse cardiovascular remodelling was markedly attenuated in hypertensives with good BP control

    Quality assurance of quantitative cardiac T1-mapping in multicenter clinical trials - A T1 phantom program from the hypertrophic cardiomyopathy registry (HCMR) study.

    BACKGROUND: Quantitative cardiovascular magnetic resonance T1-mapping is increasingly used for myocardial tissue characterization. However, the lack of standardization limits direct comparability between centers and wider roll-out for clinical use or trials. PURPOSE: To develop a quality assurance (QA) program assuring standardized T1 measurements for clinical use. METHODS: MR phantoms manufactured in 2013 were distributed, including ShMOLLI T1-mapping and reference T1 and T2 protocols. We first studied the T1 and T2 dependency on temperature and phantom aging using phantom datasets from a single site over 4 years. Based on this, we developed a multiparametric QA model, which was then applied to 78 scans from 28 other multi-national sites. RESULTS: T1 temperature sensitivity followed a second-order polynomial to baseline T1 values (R2 > 0.996). Some phantoms showed aging effects, where T1 drifted up to 49% over 40 months. The correlation model based on reference T1 and T2, developed on 1004 dedicated phantom scans, predicted ShMOLLI-T1 with high consistency (coefficient of variation 1.54%), and was robust to temperature variations and phantom aging. Using the 95% confidence interval of the correlation model residuals as the tolerance range, we analyzed 390 ShMOLLI T1-maps and confirmed accurate sequence deployment in 90%(70/78) of QA scans across 28 multiple centers, and categorized the rest with specific remedial actions. CONCLUSIONS: The proposed phantom QA for T1-mapping can assure correct method implementation and protocol adherence, and is robust to temperature variation and phantom aging. This QA program circumvents the need of frequent phantom replacements, and can be readily deployed in multicenter trials
