The imaginary component of the complex index of refraction denotes the attenuation of E-M waves in amplitude within the procedure of propagation in a medium. The attenuation of E-M waves in sea water is of great importance in microwave remote sensing, because the Snell's law of refraction in air-sea

We compared two assays for estimating the amount of active heparin bound to a catheter surface: 1) a kinetic assay based on the inactivation of thrombin by antithrombin III, and 2) thrombin uptake. Both assays were used to estimate the amount of heparin activity on a series of catheters coated with
The maximum entropy method (MEM) is applied to estimation of surface temperature from temperature readings. The inverse heat conduction problem is reformulated for MEM and a three-phase solution method utilizing the successive quadratic programming (SQP) is addressed. Computational results by the pr
Extended K&man Filter (EKF) and a Fultivariable Adaptive Estimator (MAE) have been applied to the estimation of state variables of a biotechnological process in batch and fedbatch operation. From the simulation-based comparison it appears that EKF leads to a better global estimation (biomass, substr
This article discusses convergence problems when calculating Vega (option sensitivity to volatility) that arise from discretization errors embedded in the lattice approach. Four alternative improvements to the traditional binomial method are discussed and investigated for performance. We also propos
