Correction of Impacted Maxillary Permanent Anteriors - A Case Report by Varsha Sharma, Priti Shukla, Sushmita Pattnaik, Brahmananda Dutta

“…The impaction of maxillary anterior teeth can be a challenging orthodontic problem that can be managed by interceptive orthodontics in early mixed dentition. In this particular case report, interceptive orthodontics alone may not bring desirable results because two problems need to be dealt simultaneously, namely, intraosseous crowding and midline shift due to impaction on the affected quadrant. …”

Novel blind recognition method for self-synchronized scrambler by Hong-shu LIAO, Ye YUAN, Lu GAN

“…In non-cooperative communication systems,an adversary has to blindly estimate the coding parameters of scrambler from intercepted sequence.On the condition biased information source,a new method was proposed which can blindly recover the generating polynomial of self-synchronized scrambler.This method was based on the corrected squared Euclidean distance which was used to measure the distance between the actual stat ical probability and the uniform distribution.The simulation results verify the theory analysis and the validity of the algorithm.…”
