Abstract Background Human exposure to high doses of radiation resulting in acute radiation syndrome and death can rapidly escalate to a mass casualty catastrophe in the event of nuclear accidents or terrorism.The primary reason is that there is presently no effective treatment option, especially for radiation-induced gastrointestinal syndrome.This
Attraction of Lutzomyia longipalpis to synthetic sex-aggregation pheromone: Effect of release rate and proximity of adjacent pheromone sources.
In South America, the Protist parasite that causes visceral leishmaniasis, a potentially fatal human disease, is transmitted by blood-feeding female Lutzomyia longipalpis sand flies.A synthetic copy of the male produced sex-aggregation pheromone offers new opportunities for vector control applications.We have previously shown that the pheromone pla
Learning Models for Semantic Classification of Insufficient Plantar Pressure Images
Establishing a reliable and stable model to predict a target by using insufficient labeled samples is feasible and effective, particularly, for a sensor-generated data-set.This paper has been inspired with insufficient data-set learning algorithms, such Harnesses as metric-based, prototype networks and meta-learning, and therefore we propose an ins
Political tensions in the process of mobilization-demobilization: The movement #YoSoy132
The aim of this paper is to highlight the main tensions of #YoSoy132 movement, emerged in Mexico in HERBAL D-TOX 2012 electoral process, and spread up to dozens of cities across the country.Despite the symbolic impact it had on the electoral campaign and in the soul of citizen groups, the movement did Dust Paper Bag not achieve its immediate goals.
