Abstract:
Scatter hoarders are animals (e.g. squirrels) who cache food (nuts) over a number of sites for later collection. A certain minimum amount of food must be recovered, possibly after pilfering by another animal, in order to survive the winter. An optimal caching strategy is one that maximizes the survival probability, given worst case behaviour of the pilferer. We modify certain ‘accumulation games’ studied by Kikuta & Ruckle (2000 J. Optim. Theory Appl. ) and Kikuta & Ruckle (2001 Naval Res. Logist. ), which modelled the problem of optimal diversification of resources against catastrophi

In visual search tasks, observers look for targets among distractors. In the lab, this often takes the form of multiple searches for a simple shape that may or may not be present among other items scattered at random on a computer screen (e.g., Find a red T among other letters that are either black or red.). In the real world, observers may search for multiple classes of target in complex scenes that occur only once (e.g., As I emerge from the subway, can I find lunch, my friend, and a street sign in the scene before me?).

Abstract:
Electric vehicles (EVs) are now attracting increasing interest from both industries and countries as an environmentally friendly and energy efficient mode of travel. Therefore, the EV charging and/or discharging issue has become an important challenge and research topic in power systems in recent years. An advanced and economic EV charging process, however, should employ smart scheduling, which depends on effective and robust algorithms. To that end, a comprehensive intelligent scatter search (ISS) algorithm within the frame of a basic scatter search has been designed with both unidirectional

ABSTRACT Low-mass compact galaxies (ultracompact dwarfs, UCDs, and compact ellipticals, cEs) populate the stellar size–mass plane between globular clusters and early-type galaxies. Known to be formed either in situ with an intrinsically low mass or resulting from the stripping of a more massive galaxy, the presence of a supermassive or an intermediate-mass black hole (BH) could help discriminate between these possible scenarios. With this aim, we have performed a multiwavelength search of active BH activity, i.e. active galactic nuclei (AGN), in a sample of 937 low-mass compact galaxies (580 U

Regularized-LDA (R-LDA) is one of the most successful holistic approaches that is introduced to overcome the “small sample size” (SSS) problem of the LDA method, which is often encountered in Face Recognition (FR) tasks. R-LDA is based on reducing the high variance of principal components of the within-class scatter matrix to optimize the regularized Fisher's criterion. In this article, the authors assume that some of these components do not have significant information and they can be discarded.

Context. Stellar activity poses one of the main obstacles for the detection and characterisation of small exoplanets around cool stars, as it can induce radial velocity (RV) signals that can hide or mimic the presence of planetary companions. Several indicators of stellar activity are routinely used to identify activity-related signals in RVs, but not all indicators trace exactly the same activity effects, nor are any of them always effective in all stars.

Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam., belonging to the Convolvulaceae, is widely cultivated and used as an industrial resource as well as for food and feed worldwide (2). In September 2010, an unknown leaf blight was observed on leaves in Hoengseong County and Jecheon City in Korea. Symptoms were mostly observed in older leaves as cream to tan-brown lesions surrounded by purplish brown-to-dark brown margin. Each lesion was circular to irregular, not exceeding 10 mm, but coalesced to form larger lesions. Necrotic tissue fell out giving rise to shot-holes. A number of black pycnidia were present in the les

Abstract Background: Several novel therapeutics are being developed for AML with demonstrable effects on response rates (e.g. complete remission [CR], CR with incomplete hematologic recovery [CRi], CR with incomplete platelet recovery [CRp], overall response rate [ORR = CR+CRi/CRp]), and EFS. Improvement in EFS recently served as the basis of approval of gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) for the treatment of newly-diagnosed CD33-positive AML in adults (Jen et al. Clin Cancer Res 2018). The relationship between response rate, EFS, and OS in newly-diagnosed AML has not been conclusively established. Th

Peonies (Paeonia sp.) are highly valued for their large showy flowers in home gardens and commercially in the cut flower industry. In 2007, scattered peony (Paeonia lactiflora ‘Sarah Bernhardt’) plants cultivated on small plots at the University of Alaska Experimental Station in Fairbanks displayed distinct leaf ringspot patterns. Symptoms were more severe during the cooler months of the growing season (June and September), with symptom remission in the intervening warmer months. Leaf samples from six symptomatic plants were collected in July and from 20 symptomatic plants in September and ass

Abstract The neutrino physics program at the LHC, which will soon be initiated by the FASER experiment, will provide unique opportunities for precision studies of neutrino interaction vertices at high energies. This will also open up the possibility to search for beyond the standard model (BSM) particles produced in such interactions in the specific high-energy neutrino beam-dump experiment. In this study, we illustrate the prospects for such searches in models with the dipole or Z′ portal to GeV-scale heavy neutral leptons.

This study performed a large-scale identification of AbaRs to understand their distribution and compositions of antimicrobial resistance genes.

AbaRs were prevalent in A. baumannii, being found in 2,091 genomes. They were sparse in other Acinetobacter species a

Abstract De novo mutations (DNMs) significantly contribute to sporadic diseases, particularly in neuropsychiatric disorders. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) and whole-genome sequencing (WGS) provide effective methods for detecting DNMs and prioritizing candidate genes.

To fill the unmet need, we integrated 580 799 DNMs, including 30 060 coding DNMs detected by WES/WGS from 23 951 individuals across 24 phenotypes and prio
