Metamorphic testing of named entity recognition systems: A case study

open access: yesIET Software, 2022
Named entity recognition (NER) is a widely used natural language processing technique; it plays a key role in information extraction from sentences. To be able to test the correctness of NER systems is important, but it is expensive because an automated ...

The Effect of Botanical Pesticides Azadirachtin, Celangulin, and Veratramine Exposure on an Invertebrate Species Solenopsis invicta (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

open access: yesToxins, 2023
The injudicious and excessive use of synthetic pesticides has deleterious effects on humans, ecosystems, and biodiversity. As an alternative to traditional crop-protection methods, botanical pesticides are gaining importance.

The ANTS problem [PDF]

open access: yesDistributed Computing, 2016
We introduce the Ants Nearby Treasure Search (ANTS) problem, which models natural cooperative foraging behavior such as that performed by ants around their nest. In this problem, k probabilistic agents, initially placed at a central location, collectively search for a treasure on the two-dimensional grid.

Riding with the ants [PDF]

open access: yesPersoonia - Molecular Phylogeny and Evolution of Fungi, 2017
Isolates of Teratosphaeriaceae have frequently been found in the integument of attine ants, proving to be common and diverse in this microenvironment. The LSU phylogeny of the ant-isolated strains studied revealed that they cluster in two main lineages.

Gut Microbiome Composition of the Fire Ant Solenopsis invicta: an Integrated Analysis of Host Genotype and Geographical Distribution

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Gut symbiotic bacteria are known to be closely related to insect development, nutrient metabolism, and disease resistance traits, but the most important factors leading to changes in these communities have not been well clarified.

Communication in ants [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2006
Research shows that ants, and also honeybees and other species of social insects, use several pheromones or other signals in organizing their foraging system. Two important and connected questions, therefore, are to determine why multiple signals are needed and how they work together. Some progress has been made in the honeybee, where four dances and a

Genetic characterization of the Colombian Creole Horse population via STR markers used in filiation tests and equine certification

open access: yesForensic Science International: Animals and Environments, 2023
Genetic parentage tests have great relevance in breed registration processes in equine specimens. In addition, these tests are used to verify progeny genetic accuracy, using microsatellite molecular markers (STR) as a method for individual identification
