Marked decline in forest-dependent small mammals following habitat loss and fragmentation in an Amazonian deforestation frontier [PDF]
Agricultural frontier expansion into the Amazon over the last four decades has created million hectares of fragmented forests. While many species undergo local extinctions within remaining forest patches, this may be compensated by native species from ...

Intrusion Detection Based on Autoencoder and Isolation Forest in Fog Computing
Fog Computing has emerged as an extension to cloud computing by providing an efficient infrastructure to support IoT. Fog computing acting as a mediator provides local processing of the end-users' requests and reduced delays in communication between the ...

Generalized isolation forest for anomaly detection [PDF]
Abstract This letter introduces a generalization of Isolation Forest (IF) based on the existing Extended IF (EIF). EIF has shown some interest compared to IF being for instance more robust to some artefacts. However, some information can be lost when computing the EIF trees since the sampled threshold might lead to empty branches.

Terrestrial molluscs of Pemba Island, Zanzibar, Tanzania, and its status as an "oceanic" island [PDF]
Pemba is thought to have had a longer and/or stronger history of isolation than its better-known counterpart, Unguja. The extent to which the biota support this hypothesis of greater oceanicity have been debated.

Forest patch isolation drives local extinctions of Amazonian orchid bees in a 26 years old archipelago [PDF]
Major hydroelectric dams are among key emergent agents of habitat loss and fragmentation in lowland tropical forests. Orchid bees (Apidae, Euglossini) are one of the most important groups of specialized pollinators of flowering plants in Neotropical ...

Geography and History of Periodical Cicadas (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) in DuPage County, Illinois [PDF]
The spatial distribution of periodical cicada (Magicicada septendecim L. and M. cassini Fisher) emergence in 2007 did not match either historical locations of woodlands or the cicadas’ own geography in the 19th and early 20th centuries in DuPage County ...

Design matters : an evaluation of the impact of small man-made forest clearings on tropical bats using a before-after-control-impact design [PDF]
In recent years, large clearings (>1000 ha) accounted for gradually smaller amounts of total annual deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon, whereas the proportion of small clearings (
