A point that stays unchanged during a transformation is known as a fixed point(Fp). Such points play an important part in several mathematical domains. Applying Fp theory approaches allows for the efficient derivation of suitable solutions for operator equations that describe phenomena in several nonlinear scientific disciplines. The goal of solving these equations is to identify the Fp and its approximation. In this paper, a new iteration process is provided to approximate common fixed points (CFp) for non-expansive mapping (Non-exp map). Some convergence theorems have been established and the results obtained are confirmed with examples and tables. A numerical example is given to demonstrate that a novel process converges more rapidly

Ticagrelor treatment improves antioxidant properties in addition to its antiplatelet effects. This study investigated the impact of Ticagrelor treatment on serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels and other biochemical parameters in PAD patients. It also evaluated the potential diagnostic accuracy and clinical utility of specific biomarkers based on receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Seventy individuals were categorized into healthy control (n=40), baseline PAD patients not on Ticagrelor (B-PAD, n=30), and same PAD patients after treated with Ticagrelor (A-PAD, n=30). Parameters measured included SOD concentratio

It is placed on the Department of Astronomy and Space roof, and observes a 21-cm HI emission line, scanning the galaxy's first quadrant systematically. From 0° to 90° galactic longitude, by increasing 5°, the telescope identifies the highest recession velocity, corresponding to clouds orbiting tangent to the line of observation. The rotation curve, plotting galactic rotational velocity against distance from the centre, is anticipated to be flat, indicative of uniform mass distribution. However, observed deviations challenge this expectation, rev

While several methods of automatic video segmentation for the identification of shot transition have been proposed, they have not been systematically compared. In this paper, several segmentation techniques cross different type of video are examined. Each of these techniques defines a measure of dissimilarity between successive frames, which is then compared to a threshold .Dissimilarity values exceeding the threshold identify shot transition.
The techniques are compared in terms of the percentage of correct and false identifications for various thresholds, their sensitivity to the threshold value their performance across different type of video, their ability to identify complicated transition effects, and their requirements for co

Ad hoc networks are characterized by ease of setup, low costs, and frequent use in the corporate world. They ensure safety to the user and maintain the confidentiality of the information circulated. They also allow the user to address the cases of communication failure in areas subject to destruction of communication infrastructure. The proposed protocols in the ad hoc networks often build only one path to achieve communication between the nodes, due to the restrictions of battery run out and the movement of the nodes. This connection is often subject to a failure within a certain range. Thus, multiple alternate paths in ad hoc networks use a solution to failing node communications. In addition, when looking at the situation where interf

Digital watermarking is a technique that can be used to embed a know piece of digital data (watermark data) within another piece of digital media (media to be protected) to act as a copyright protection and tracing for illegal copies for the digital media.
In recent years, it has been recognize that embedding information in transform domain leads to more robust watermarks, so in this paper wavelet transform used as transformation domain of digital image (i.e. cover image). The main concern of the proposed watermark algorithm in this paper is to embed a watermark text in the selected color image during adaptive wavelet transformation. The embedding of the watermark text (digital 0, 1) makes by separating sequential text into differen

Community detection is useful for better understanding the structure of complex networks. It aids in the extraction of the required information from such networks and has a vital role in different fields that range from healthcare to regional geography, economics, human interactions, and mobility. The method for detecting the structure of communities involves the partitioning of complex networks into groups of nodes, with extensive connections within community and sparse connections with other communities. In the literature, two main measures, namely the Modularity (Q) and Normalized Mutual Information (NMI) have been used for evaluating the validation and quality of the detected community structures.

This mathematical formulation ensures that the inverse problem has a unique solution. However, the problem is still ill-posed since small errors in the input data lead to a drastic amount of errors in the output coefficients. The finite difference method with the Crank-Nicolson scheme is adopted as a direct solver of the problem in a fixed domain. The inverse problem is solved sub
