Reducing Building Conflicts in Map Generalization with an Improved PSO Algorithm
In map generalization, road symbolization and map scale reduction may create spatial conflicts between roads and neighboring buildings. To resolve these conflicts, cartographers often displace the buildings.

Configuration of Stable Evolutionary Strategy of Homo Sapiens and Evolutionary Risks of Technological Civilization (the Conceptual Model Essay) [PDF]
Stable evolutionary strategy of Homo sapiens (SESH) is built in accordance with the modular and hierarchical principle and consists of the same type of self-replicating elements, i.e. is a system of systems.

Polyploidy breaks speciation barriers in Australian burrowing frogs Neobatrachus [PDF]
Polyploidy has played an important role in evolution across the tree of life but it is still unclear how polyploid lineages may persist after their initial formation.

Yield estimation of summer maize based on multi‐source remote‐sensing data
Abstract Accurately estimating regional‐scale crop yields is substantial in determining current agricultural production performance and effective agricultural land management. The Yuncheng Basin is an important grain‐producing area in the Shanxi Province. This paper used Sentinel 2A with a spatial resolution of 10 m and MODIS with a temporal resolution

How to identify a patient with autoinflammatory syndrome: Clinical and diagnostic algorithms
Autoinflammatory syndromes (AISs) are a group of predominantly hereditary diseases associated with the spontaneous uncontrolled production of proinflammatory cytokines. Most diseases are known to have molecular mechanisms and an inheritance pattern.

Quantifying the Fraction of Missing Information for Hypothesis Testing in Statistical and Genetic Studies [PDF]
Many practical studies rely on hypothesis testing procedures applied to data sets with missing information. An important part of the analysis is to determine the impact of the missing data on the performance of the test, and this can be done by properly ...

Simulation as a method for asymptotic system behavior identification (e.g. water frog hemiclonal population systems) [PDF]
Studying any system requires development of ways to describe the variety of its conditions. Such development includes three steps. The first one is to identify groups of similar systems (associative typology).

Search for Risk Haplotype Segments with GWAS Data by Use of Finite Mixture Models [PDF]
The region-based association analysis has been proposed to capture the collective behavior of sets of variants by testing the association of each set instead of individual variants with the disease.
