Abstract: Nowadays, Partial Power Converters (PPCs) are considered a justified replacement for Full Power Converters (FPC) to improve efficiency and power density by processing only a fraction of the ...

Network neuroscience is predicated on the assumption that structural brain connectivity enables long-range communication between specialized information processing systems, known as functional ...

Meaningful progress has been made in value-based care, but the documented advances in reducing costs and improving patient outcomes have taken place predominately in the primary care sector.

Recombination activating genes (RAG) 1 and 2 defects are the most frequent form of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). Patients with residual RAG activity have a spectrum of clinical ...

Abstract: This article proposes a multiport control method to enable partial power processing (PPP) in a medium-voltage (MV) multiport solid-state transformer (SST). MV multiport SSTs are promising in ...

Lack of a general matrix formula hampers implementation of the semi-partial correlation, also known as part correlation, to the higher-order coefficient. This is because the higher-order semi-partial ...

Diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive imaging method, which can be used to investigate neural tracts in the white matter (WM) of the brain. Significant partial ...
