We have used observations gathered at CTIO to measure distances by the expanding photosphere method (EPM) to five Type II supernovae. These supernovae lie at redshifts from cz = 1100 km s-1 to cz - 5500 km s-1, and increase ...

In this study we evaluated whether a method of direct location is an appropriate response method for measuring auditory distance perception of far-field sound sources. We designed an experimental set-up that allows ...

This letter presents an unambiguous distance-based mixed-integer quadratic programming (UDB-MIQP) model to solve economic dispatch problems with disjoint operating zones. By considering the distances among the prohibited ...

In a previous paper, it was proved that the area based affine distance of a convex region in the plane satisfies a non-homogeneous Monge-Ampere differential equation. Based on this equation, in this paper we propose a fast ...

Stochastic distances combined with Minimum Distance method for region-based classification of Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PolSAR) image was successfully verified in Silva et al. (2013). Methods like K-Nearest ...

Basic information, such as population size and density, is needed for conservation and management of many species, especially threatened species. Thus, well-designed population monitoring programs that use appropriate ...

The received signal strength (RSS) is a common source of information used for estimating the distance between two wireless nodes, whether these nodes are stationary or mobile. Minimum mean squared error distance estimation ...
