We investigate the seasonal dynamics of two freshwater snails, Biomphalaria straminea and Melanoides tuberculata, in artificial reservoirs of the Brazilian semiarid region. Despite regulated hydrology, B. straminea exhibited strong seasonal fluctuations associated with dry periods, while M. tuberculata maintained stable populations throughout the year,

Gaussian process models for periodicity detection [PDF]
We consider the problem of detecting and quantifying the periodic component of a function given noise-corrupted observations of a limited number of input/output tuples.

Facial expression recognition based on local region specific features and support vector machines
Facial expressions are one of the most powerful, natural and immediate means for human being to communicate their emotions and intensions. Recognition of facial expression has many applications including human-computer interaction, cognitive science ...

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders
We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...

Anti-Adjacency Matrices of Certain Graphs Derived from Some Graph Operations
If we go through the literature, one can find many matrices that are derived for a given simple graph. The one among them is the anti-adjacency matrix which is given as follows; The anti-adjacency matrix of a simple undirected graph $G$ with vertex set

From CCS to CSP: the m-among-n Synchronisation Approach
We present an alternative translation from CCS to an extension of CSP based on m-among-n synchronisation (called CSPmn). This translation is correct up to strong bisimulation. Unlike the g-star renaming approach ([4]), this translation is not limited by replication (viz., recursion with no nested parallel composition).

Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors
Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

Towards a New Virtualist Design Research Programme
This paper considers how the influence of computer-cyber networks informs a new way of seeing on the part of designers as well as design researchers. In an adaptation of the notion of “virtual realities” made possible by computer technology, this new ...

On the expressiveness and decidability of higher-order process calculi [PDF]
AbstractIn higher-order process calculi, the values exchanged in communications may contain processes. A core calculus of higher-order concurrency is studied; it has only the operators necessary to express higher-order communications: input prefix, process output, and parallel composition.
