Abstract:
Snow water equivalent (SWE), the amount of water generated when a snowpack melts, has been used to study the impacts of climate change on the cryosphere processes and snow cover dynamics during the winter season. In most analyses, high-temporal-resolution SWE and SD data are aggregated into monthly and yearly averages to detect and characterize changes. Aggregating snow measurements, however, can magnify the modifiable aerial unit problem, resulting in differing snow trends at different temporal resolutions. Time series analysis of gridded SWE data holds the potential to unravel the impacts of

Change management involves a set of changes within entities that poses a risk to the stability of the entity. Similarity index helps to analyze and prioritize the changes, but it provides inaccurate results due to non-consideration of type of similarity. Existing types of similarities also lack accuracy in comparing the versions due to history slicing in case of renaming or shifting. Thus, the proposed combination of fuzzy and hybrid techniques uses modified similarity index that helps in prioritizing the changes in the entities based on the proposed nominal similarity classifications.

Abstract:
Current clinical assessments evaluating selective voluntary motor control are measured on an ordinal scale. We combined the Selective Control of the Upper Extremity Scale (SCUES) with surface electromyography to develop a more objective and interval-scaled assessment of selective voluntary motor control. The resulting Similarity Index (SI) quantifies the similarity of muscle activation patterns. We aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of this new assessment named SISCUES (Similarity Index of the SCUES) in children with upper motor neuron lesions.

Abstract:
Clustering samples based on similarity remains a significant challenge, especially when the goal is to accurately capture the underlying data clusters of complex arbitrary shapes. Existing density-based clustering techniques are known to be best suited for capturing arbitrarily shaped clusters. However, a key limitation of these methods is the difficulty in automatically finding the optimal set of parameters adapted to dataset characteristics, which becomes even more challenging when the data contain inherent noise.

In this work, the impact of plasma treatment on Si wafers with native oxide on top was systematically investigated using spectroscopic ellipsometry. A general applicable three-layer optical model structure for ellipsometry data fitting was developed and employed on samples treated with the N2, O2, and N2/O2 mixture plasma. Oxide-growth, amorphization of crystalline Si, and the formation of a transition layer between the SiO2 and the amorphous Si were detected. The estimated thicknesses of produced layers were confirmed by complementary methods, which allow precise ultra-thin layers thicknesses

Knowledge on intra-specific genetic variation of an organism is important for its genetic improvement and conservation. In order to estimate genetic variation and relatedness in eleven tropical Sugar beet varieties we used randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. The RAPD analysis was performed using six decamer random primers, which amplified a total of 63 DNA fragments of which 43 (68.25%) were found polymorphic. The average polymorphic bands per primer was 7.17 and the overall gene diversity was 0.24. Among the 43 polymorphic loci studied, 2 were specific for 2K 310, 1 for Shubrah
