Water column use by reef fishes of different color patterns [PDF]
Color in animals responds to selective pressures and mediates the relationship between organism and environment. Reef fishes have the amplest variety of pigment cell types. This color patterns’ variety may function as camouflage and be related to spatial

Background Knowledge in Schema Matching: Strategy vs. Data [PDF]
The use of external background knowledge can be beneficial for the task of matching schemas or ontologies automatically. In this paper, we exploit six general-purpose knowledge graphs as sources of background knowledge for the matching task. The background sources are evaluated by applying three different exploitation strategies.

Multimatcher Model to Enhance Ontology Matching Using Background Knowledge
Ontology matching is a rapidly emerging topic crucial for semantic web effort, data integration, and interoperability. Semantic heterogeneity is one of the most challenging aspects of ontology matching.

Image Background Matching for Identifying Suspects [PDF]
Thousands of digital images may exist of a given location, some of which may show a crime in progress. One technique for identifying suspects and witnesses is to collect images of specific crime scenes from computers, cell phones, cameras and other electronic devices, and perform image matching based on image backgrounds.

Does soil color affect fish evolution? Differences in color change rate between lineages of the sailfin tetra [PDF]
Several organisms match their skin color to the prevalent background color, granting crypsis against predators. The rate at which body color changes occur varies among organisms as a result of physiological constraints and adaptation to variation in ...

Many studies addressing the use of nest materials by animals have focused on only one factor to explain its function. However, the consideration of more than one factor could explain the apparently maladaptive choice of nest materials that make nests ...

Matching Unstructured Vocabularies Using a Background Ontology [PDF]
Existing ontology matching algorithms use a combination of lexical and structural correspondence between source and target ontologies. We present a realistic case-study where both types of overlap are low: matching two unstructured lists of vocabulary used to describe patients at Intensive Care Units in two different hospitals.

Disruptive coloration and background pattern matching
Effective camouflage renders a target indistinguishable from irrelevant background objects. Two interrelated but logically distinct mechanisms for this are background pattern matching (crypsis) and disruptive coloration: in the former, the animal's colours are a random sample of the background; in the latter, bold contrasting colours on the animal's ...

Transparency in the Ophthalmology Residency Match: Background, Study, and Implications [PDF]
Background Medical students are applying to dramatically more ophthalmology residency programs than in the past, causing an increased administrative burden for programs and financial harm to students. This study considers the background of this situation and looks at how a lack of transparency surrounding potential residency match filters contributes ...

Effective anti‐predatory strategies typically require matching appearance and behavior in prey, and there are many compelling examples of behavioral repertoires that enhance the effectiveness of morphological defenses. When protective adult morphology is
