Social Undermining and Promotive Voice: The Moderating Effects of Procedural Justice.

Organizations are increasingly depending on their employees to contribute suggestions aimed at enhancing organizational processes, boosting overall efficiency, and fostering innovation. However, some factors might hinder employees from expressing their thoughts. While there is evidence suggesting an effect of supervisor social undermining behavior on employee voice, the impact on innovative types of voice, specifically promotive voice, remains uncertain.

Compressive Sensing of Medical Images Based on HSV Color Space.

Recently, compressive sensing (CS) schemes have been studied as a new compression modality that exploits the sensing matrix in the measurement scheme and the reconstruction scheme to recover the compressed signal. In addition, CS is exploited in medical imaging (MI) to support efficient sampling, compression, transmission, and storage of a large amount of MI. Although CS of MI has been extensively investigated, the effect of color space in CS of MI has not yet been studied in the literature.

A Systematic Review on Recent Trends, Challenges, Privacy and Security Issues of Underwater Internet of Things.

Owing to the hasty growth of communication technologies in the Underwater Internet of Things (UIoT), many researchers and industries focus on enhancing the existing technologies of UIoT systems for developing numerous applications such as oceanography, diver networks monitoring, deep-sea exploration and early warning systems. In a constrained UIoT environment, communication media such as acoustic, infrared (IR), visible light, radiofrequency (RF) and magnet induction (MI) are generally used to transmit information via digitally linked underwater devices. However, each medium has its technical limitations: for example, the acoustic medium has challenges such as narrow-channel bandwidth, low data rate, high cost, etc.

On the Performance Evaluations of Cooperative Retransmission Scheme for Cell-Edge Users of URLLC in Multi-Carrier Downlink NOMA Systems.

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has a key feature that the cell-center user (CCU) has prior information about the messages of the cell-edge user (CEU) in the same user-pair. It means that CCU can be used for retransmission when the CEU requests retransmission. As ultra-reliability and low-latency communication (URLLC) requires high-reliability constraints (e.

The Relationship Between Breast Density Change During Menopause and the Risk of Breast Cancer in Korean Women.

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between changes in breast density during menopause and breast cancer risk.

Methods: This study was a retrospective, longitudinal cohort study for women over 30 years of age who had undergone breast mammography serially at baseline and postmenopause during regular health checkups at Samsung Medical Center. None of the participants had been diagnosed with breast cancer at baseline.

Compressed medical imaging based on average sparsity model and reweighted analysis of multiple basis pursuit.

In medical imaging and applications, efficient image sampling and transfer are some of the key fields of research. The compressed sensing (CS) theory has shown that such compression can be performed during the data retrieval process and that the uncompressed image can be retrieved using a computationally flexible optimization method. The objective of this study is to propose compressed medical imaging for a different type of medical images, based on the combination of the average sparsity model and reweighted analysis of multiple basis pursuit (M-BP) reconstruction methods, referred to as multiple basis reweighted analysis (M-BRA).

A survey on contemporary computer-aided tumor, polyp, and ulcer detection methods in wireless capsule endoscopy imaging.

Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is a process in which a patient swallows a camera-embedded pill-shaped device that passes through the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, captures and transmits images to an external receiver. WCE devices are considered as a replacement of conventional endoscopy methods which are usually painful and distressful for the patients. WCE devices produce over 60,000 images typically during their course of operation inside the GI tract.

Quality assessment for wireless capsule endoscopy videos compressed via HEVC: From diagnostic quality to visual perception.

Maintaining the quality of medical images and videos is an essential part of the e-services provided by the healthcare sector. The convergence of modern communication systems and the healthcare industry necessitates the provision of better quality of service and experience by the service provider. Recent inclusion and standardization of the high efficiency video coder (HEVC) has made it possible for medical data to be compressed and transmitted over wireless networks with minimal compromise of the quality.

Detection of small colon bleeding in wireless capsule endoscopy videos.

In the recent years, wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) technology has played a very important role in diagnosing diseases within the gastro intestinal (GI) tract of human beings. The WCE device captures images of the GI tract of patient with a certain frame rate. Physicians examine these images in order to find abnormalities in the GI tract.

A cost effective block framing scheme for underwater communication.

In this paper, the Selective Multiple Acknowledgement (SMA) method, based on Multiple Acknowledgement (MA), is proposed to efficiently reduce the amount of data transmission by redesigning the transmission frame structure and taking into consideration underwater transmission characteristics. The method is suited to integrated underwater system models, as the proposed method can handle the same amount of data in a much more compact frame structure without any appreciable loss of reliability. Herein, the performance of the proposed SMA method was analyzed and compared to those of the conventional Automatic Repeat-reQuest (ARQ), Block Acknowledgement (BA), block response, and MA methods.

SBMAC: smart blocking MAC mechanism for variable UW-ASN (Underwater Acoustic Sensor Network) environment.

In this paper, several MAC scheduling methods applicable to an underwater environment are proposed. Besides, a new marine communication system model was proposed to improve the reliability of the proposed SBMAC method. The scheme minimizes transmission of control frames except for data transmission and various transmission methods and ACK methods can be used together.
