Alternative approaches in schistosomiasis control [PDF]
Measures for the control of schistosomiasis were implemented in Egypt beginning 1922. This shows that developing endemic countries are facing this problem for near 70 years. However, results in the control of this infection have not been satisfactorily obtained in spite of the technologies and strategies recently developed.

On Controllable Sparse Alternatives to Softmax
Converting an n-dimensional vector to a probability distribution over n objects is a commonly used component in many machine learning tasks like multiclass classification, multilabel classification, attention mechanisms etc. For this, several probability mapping functions have been proposed and employed in literature such as softmax, sum-normalization,

Alternating Control Flow Reconstruction [PDF]
Unresolved indirect branch instructions are a major obstacle for statically reconstructing a control flow graph (CFG) from machine code. If static analysis cannot compute a precise set of possible targets for a branch, the necessary conservative over-approximation introduces a large amount of spurious edges, leading to even more imprecision and a ...

High-Dynamized Dilutions in Disease Management, Development, and Yield of Common Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) [PDF]
The active ingredients used in the phytosanitary management of bean crops have a residual power which results in contamination of the entire production chain.

Alternatives to Placebo-Controlled Trials [PDF]
Until recently, the gold standard for assessing the efficacy and effectiveness of new medications has been the placebocontrol randomized clinical trial (RCT). However, there are serious ethical concerns about placing patients on a placebo when effective treatments exist.

Effect of inert dust on the mortality of Sitophilus zeamais (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) [PDF]
The maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky, 1855 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), generally reaches pest status in stored grain. Chemical control is the most used method for population suppression, which can cause adverse impacts, thus creating a need ...

Alternative Bloat Control Methods [PDF]
Bloat control is an important aspect of evolutionary computation methods, such as genetic programming, which must deal with genomes of arbitrary size. We introduce three new methods for bloat control: Biased Multi-Objective Parsimony Pressure (BMOPP), the Waiting Room, and Death by Size.
