Recent authorities recognize "between four and seven orders" (Ash et al., 1999) of venation in most angiosperm leaves according to the following system: first, all vein widths are measured at their basal junction (i.e., thickest end).
The complete two-dimensional photonic bandgap (PBG) of our optimal design reaches Δω = 0.10664(2πc/a) (where a is the lattice constant and c is the speed of light in vacuum) when the radius of dielectric rod is 280.1 nm and the half-vein width is 60 nm.
Due to the fact that finger veins vary in diameters naturally, an effective curve length field (CLF) estimation method is proposed to make weighted SCFs adaptive to vein-width variations.
Prior to apoplast wash fluid recovery the midrib and edges of each leaf were removed and strips of lamina tissue were excised from the intercostal regions between the veins, strip width not exceeding 1 cm, similar to Rathmell's technique [ 25].
The AUROCs of the RF model, portal vein diameter, spleen width, platelet count/spleen width ratio and platelet count were all > 0.5 statistically.
Based on the ROC curve analysis, the optimum cut-off values of portal vein diameter, spleen width, and platelet count/spleen width ratio were 12 mm, 46 mm, 1.0153 (10/mm/mm, respectively (Table 4).
The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for RF model, portal vein diameter, spleen width, platelet count and platelet count/spleen width ratio for the prediction of EV are shown in Figure 1.
Vein-type rodingites (Fig. 2c) occur as winding or meandering veins of variable width ranging from 1 to 10 cm, sometimes showing branching and no distinct internal textures.
The veins ranged in width from roughly the thickness of a human hair all the way up to about 1 millimeter.
The MST is a strictly hierarchical network (i.e., with no loops) which connects all vertices while maximizing some objective function (i.e., the sum of vein segment lengths, widths, surface area, volume or conductance).
The main advantage of the coalesced vein is its lumen width being almost that of the cephalic vein [19].
