The usage of web shows the importance of usability and readability of the web applications or sources provide by the web and web textual contents. Web application fails to encounter the user’s requirements in effective manner specially related to textual information, because the designers are unaware from some of the important factors effecting readability, reading from the screen. In this regard, this study is the continuation of the previous work that has been done for the improvement of readability, to handle the readability issues on the basis of Eye Blink for male participants and female participants. To achieve general recommendations for suitable or optimum length of text line for all type of users on the bases of eye blink. Basically during reading from the computer screen focus losses at two positions, when eye blink in the middle of text line and when text line ends. The study specifies suitable length of text line on the basis of Eye Blink, assuming three typographical variables i.e. font style, font color, font size, and with white background, which improve the overall readability or reading from computer screen. The study also shows two important things the degree of understandability and the degree of attractive appearance of different combination.展开更多

Using the established model, and choosing vehicle lateral acceleration and wheel suspension as the evaluation indexes, dynamic characteristic of vehicle traveling in turnout and adjacent area on main line was analyzed, and effects on travelling safety and stability of train aroused by length variation of straight lines were calculated based on analyzing the damping rules of vibration. The results show that, a certain length of straight lines can alleviate the vibration aroused in turnout and curve(turnout), length of straight lines connecting turnouts in different sections on main line was proposed to meet the demand of traveling stability, and shortening or cancelation of straight line for the scale limitation of station yard has less influence on operation safety of train.展开更多

There existed a significantly positive relationship between CL and DRI with the correlation coefficient of 0.2206** under water stress conditions. Under normal and water stress conditions, a total of eleven and four QTLs for CL and DRI, respectively, were detected on chromosomes 1,2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11 and 12 by using a linkage map including 213 SSR markers, which explained 4.84% to 22.65% of phenotypic variance. Chromosomes 1 and 9 possessing the QTLs for DRI harbored simultaneously QTLs for CL, and qCL9 shared the same chromosome location with qDR19 (RM160-RM215). Comparing the QTLs related to drought resistance in other studies, QTLs for CL and DRI were located in the same or adjacent marker interval as those related to root traits, such as number, dry weight, depth, and length of root. Moreover, sixteen and three pairs of epistatic loci for CL and DRI were found, which accounted for 56.17% and 11.93% of the total variation in CL and DRI, respectively.展开更多

In this paper, we describe a new Arc GIS-based method that can derive glacier flow lines for determining glacier length based on digital elevation model and glacier outlines. This method involves(1) extraction of the highest and lowest points on a glacier,(2) calculation of 10-m contour lines on the glacier from 10 m to 100 m height, and(3) connection of the midpoints of each contour line with the highest and the lowest points in order to create a flow line, which is subsequently smoothed. In order to assess the reliability of this method, we tested the algorithm's results against flow lines calculated using field measurements, analysing data from the Chinese Glacier Inventory, and manual interpretation. These data showed that the new automated method is effective in deriving glacier flow lines when contour lines are relatively large; in particular, when they are between 70 m and 100 m. Nonetheless, a key limitation of the algorithm is the requirement to automatically delete repeated and closed curves in the pre-treatment processes. In addition to calculating glacier flow lines for derivation of glacier length, this method also can be used to effectively determine glacier terminus change.展开更多

The former parent produces much longer grains than the latter. Selfed progenies of this selection were analyzed genotypically (SSRs) and phenotypically (grain length). Grain length was discontinuously variable in the mapping populations, allowing for the placement of this QTL qGL7-2 within a -4.8 cM interval defined by RM351 and RM234. A set of new markers within this region were developed, which narrowed the QTL to a 278 kb region defined by the markers Indell and RM21945. This region contains 49 predicted genes. The results also suggest that the novel allele for grain length will be used for the application of marker assisted selection for the improvement of grain length.展开更多

The data set is first reduced to a smaller set of partitions (multi-dimensional bins). Multiple clustering techniques are used, including spectral clustering;however, new techniques are also introduced based on the path length between partitions that are connected to one another. A Line-of-Sight algorithm is also developed for clustering. A test bank of 12 data sets with varying properties is used to expose the strengths and weaknesses of each technique. Finally, a robust clustering technique is discussed based on reaching a consensus among the multiple approaches, overcoming the weaknesses found individually.展开更多
