VARIATION OF PERMAFROST UPPER LIMIT IN PERMAFROST SUBGRADE COVERED BY SNOW ON STEEP SLOPE OF ALPINE MOUNTAINS


An Image Encryption Algorithm Based on Discrete-Time Alternating Quantum Walk and Advanced Encryption Standard

This paper proposes an image encryption scheme based on a discrete-time alternating quantum walk (AQW) and the advanced encryption standard (AES).We use quantum properties to improve the AES algorithm, which uses a keystream generator related to AQW parameters to generate a probability distribution matrix.Some singular values of the matrix are extr

Resting brain activity in early childhood predicts IQ at 18 years

Resting brain activity has been widely used as an index of brain development in neuroscience and clinical research.However, it remains unclear whether early differences in resting brain activity have meaningful implications for predicting long-term cognitive outcomes.Using data from the Bucharest Early nobivac 1-hcp Intervention Project (Zeanah et

Time to Modify Rather than Discard the Transoral Approach to Selected Cases of Clival Chordomas at the Craniocervical Junction

Maintaining the transoral approach in the armamentarium of surgical approaches to clival chordomas mainly as a complimentary procedure to endonasal endoscopic approach in selected corky lala cases is advantageous.Lateral extension of the disease is a limitation to both approaches and is addressed by transcranial approaches.Especially for extensive
