In this paper, we propose an Efficient Center-Biased Hybrid Seearch (ECBHS) for motion estimation based on Center-Biased Hybrid Search(CBHS). This proposed algorithm employ hybrid of a compact plus shaped search, X shaped search, and diamond search to reduce the search point for motion vectors which distributed within 3pels radius of center of search window. ECBHS reduces the computations for motion estimation of CBHS with similar accuracy The efficiency of the proposed algorithm was verified by experimental results.

The biased zero-error probability and its related algorithms require heavy computational burden related with some summation operations at each iteration time. In this paper, a recursive approach to the biased zero-error probability and related algorithms are proposed, and compared in the simulation environment of shallow water communication channels with ambient noise of biased Gaussian and impulsive noise. The proposed recursive method has significantly reduced computational burden regardless of sample size, contrast to the original MBZEP algorithm with computational complexity proportional to sample size. With this computational efficiency the proposed algorithm, compared with the block-processing method, shows the equivalent robustness to multipath fading, biased Gaussian and impulsive noise.

A misclassified size-biased modified power series distribution (MSBMPSD) where some of the observations corresponding to x = c + 1 are misclassified as x = c with probability $\alpha$, is defined. We obtain its recurrence relations among the raw moments, the central moments and the factorial moments. Discussion of the effect of the misclassification on the variance is considered. To illustrate the situation under consideration some of its particular cases like the size-biased generalized negative binomial (SBGNB), the size-biased generalized Poisson (SBGP) and sizebiased Borel distributions are included. Finally, an example is presented for the size-biased generalized Poisson distribution to illustrate the results.

The vibrational characteristics of a radial-ply (155SR13 4PR) and a biased-ply tire (6.15-134PR) were investigated for examining the effects of tires with different structure on the ride characteristics of the vehicle. The natural frequencies at the tread band, mode shapes, and damping factors of two tires at the state of plane vibration were determined experimentally. The test work was performed at four levels of the inflation pressure, ranging from 171.7 kPa to 245.2 kPa, and three levels of the vertical load, deviating by 10% from the standard load designated by the Department of Transportation of the United States of America. The following results were drawn by the analysis of the test results: 1. The first-order natural frequencies of the radial-ply and the biased-ply tires at the tread band were 112 Hz and 159 Hz, respectively, at the state o f the free vibration when the inflation pressure of 196.2 kPa was applied. It was known that the biased-ply tire has higher resonant frequency than the radial-ply tire and the natural frequencies of the both tires move to the high frequency range as t he inflation pressure is increased. 2. The vibration modes of both tires were quite different. No big difference in mode shapes was examined as the inflation pressure was increased. But the natural frequencies of two tires were changed. For the radial-ply tire, no difference in mode shape was found whether the vertical load was applied or not. But a significant difference in mode shape was examined for the biased-ply tire. 3. Any difference was not found in damping factor as the different inflation pressures were applied. 4. When no vertical load was applied, damping factors of the radial-ply and biased-ply tire at the state of the natural vibration ranged from 2.6 to 5.9%, and from 4.1 to 7.8%, respectively. It was estimated that the radial-ply tire would have better cushioning than the biased-ply tire since the vertical spring rate of the radial-ply tire was much less than that of the biased-ply tire, even though the damping effect of the radial-ply tire was smaller than that of the biased-ply tire.

The fibrogram theory is newly derived from the superposition principle of the conventional staple diagram, in which the left-hand ends of the fibers have to share a common starting point in order for the fiber length distribution to be measured, and the right-hand ends of the fibers form points. It is shown that the fibrogram is the staple diagram of the fiber sample having different random starting points, as well as the double cumulative distribution function of the frequency length function in the length biased sample. Also, the various means, viz. the numerical mean length, numerical mean length in median, length biased mean length, and length biased mean length in median, and the various upper half means, viz. the numerical upper half mean length, numerical upper half mean length in median, length biased upper half mean length, and length biased upper half mean length in median, are discussed in relation to the cotton blending process.

Up to now, DC-biased magnetic properties have been measured in one dimension (scalar). However, scalar magnetic properties are insufficient to clarify DC-biased magnetic properties because scalar magnetic properties can only impossibly consider the phase difference between the magnetic flux density B vector and the magnetic field strength H vector. Thus the magnetic field strength H and magnetic flux density B in magnetic materials must be directly measured as a vector quantity (two-dimensional). This paper presents measurement system to clarify the two-dimensional DC-biased magnetic properties.

This paper deals with a theoretical and experimental method for the design of a biased asymmetric pre-swirl stator propulsion system which is an energy saving device by recovering a propeller rotational energy. In the case of slow-speed ships, the upward flow is generated along the afterbody hull form at the propeller plane. The generated upward flow cancels the rotating flow of the propeller at the starboard part while it increases at port part. The present biased asymmetric pre-swirl stator propulsion system consists of three blades at the port and one blade at the starboard which can recover the biased rotating flow effectively. This paper provides the design concept which gives more simple and a high degree of efficiency and the experimental results for the compound propulsion system.

Ferrite cores are often magnetized under DC-biased field because they have been intensively used in electronic circuits such as an inverter circuit and a switching regulator circuit. Thus we investigated the effects of DC-biased field on magnetic properties in the frequency range of DC-100kHz for two kinds of ferrite cores, TDK PC38 and TDK $H_{3}S$, which have different shapes of B-H loop from each other. The magnetic loss per cycle, W/f, in the $H_{3}S$ core decreased with increasing the strength of DC-biased field, although W/f in the PC38 core increased monotonically with DC-biased field. The observed decreasing tendency differs from the previous result for Si-Fe and ferrite cores, and can be attributed to decrease in eddy current loss as well as that in hysteresis loss.

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a family of cell-surface proteins that play critical roles in regulating a variety of pathophysiological processes and thus are targeted by almost a third of currently available therapeutics. It was originally thought that GPCRs convert extracellular stimuli into intracellular signals through activating G proteins, whereas ${\beta}$-arrestins have important roles in internalization and desensitization of the receptor. Over the past decade, several novel functional aspects of ${\beta}$-arrestins in regulating GPCR signaling have been discovered. These previously unanticipated roles of ${\beta}$-arrestins to act as signal transducers and mediators of G protein-independent signaling have led to the concept of biased agonism. Biased GPCR ligands are able to engage with their target receptors in a manner that preferentially activates only G protein- or ${\beta}$-arrestin-mediated downstream signaling. This offers the potential for next generation drugs with high selectivity to therapeutically relevant GPCR signaling pathways. In this review, we provide a summary of the recent studies highlighting G protein- or ${\beta}$-arrestin-biased GPCR signaling and the effects of biased ligands on disease pathogenesis and regulation.

Blind algorithms based on Information potential of output samples and a set of symbols generated in random order at the receiver go through performance degradation when biased impulsive noise is added to the channel since the cost function composed of information potentials has no variable to deal with biased signal. Aiming at the robustness against biased impulsive noise, we propose, in this paper, a modified information potential, and derived related blind algorithms based on augmented filter structures and a set of random-order symbols. From the simulation results of blind equalization for multipath channels, the blind algorithm based on the proposed information potential produced superior convergence performance in the environments of strong biased impulsive noise.
