IMAGING FINDINGS ASSOCIATED WITH COGNITIVE PERFORMANCE IN PRIMARY LATERAL SCLEROSIS AND AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS

Imaging Findings Associated with Cognitive Performance in Primary Lateral Sclerosis and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Introduction: Executive dysfunction occurs in many patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), but it has not been well studied in primary lateral sclerosis (PLS).The aims of this study were to (1) compare cognitive function in PLS to that in ALS patients, (2) explore the relationship between performance on specific cognitive tests and diffu

A Tacholess Order Tracking Method Based on Inverse Short Time Fourier Transform and Singular Value Decomposition for Bearing Fault Diagnosis

Order tracking has been widely used to diagnose failures of variable speed rotating machines.The performance of the TOT (Time-Frequency discreet-vibrators Domain Tacholess Order Tracking) methods is based on the correct separation of the target component strictly related to the shaft rotation frequency.Currently, most of the methods have focused on
