On the Grothendieck-Serre conjecture on principal bundles in mixed characteristic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Let R be a regular local ring. Let G be a reductive R-group scheme. A conjecture of Grothendieck and Serre predicts that a principal G-bundle over R is trivial if it is trivial over the quotient field of R. The conjecture is known when R contains a field.

Genetic Improvement of Local Goats

open access: yes, 2017
Genetic improvement of domestic animals through selection of the breeding stock, including small ruminants like goats, has been acknowledged as a powerful tool. It has been used by mankind for the supply of the most varied products, and for increasing productivity and global yields.

Tactile feedback improves auditory spatial localization [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2013
Our recent studies suggest that congenitally blind adults have severely impaired thresholds in an auditory spatial bisection task, pointing to the importance of vision in constructing complex auditory spatial maps (Gori et al., 2014). To explore strategies that may improve the auditory spatial sense in visually impaired people, we investigated the ...

Survival Outcomes and Complications Among Canadian Children With Retinoblastoma: A Population‐Based Report From CYP‐C

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Retinoblastoma (RB) is the most common pediatric ocular cancer, yet population‐based data on survival and risk factors remain limited. This study aimed to describe survival in a large national RB cohort and identify predictors of death and complications.

Non-convex approach to binary compressed sensing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We propose a new approach to the recovery of binary signals in compressed sensing, based on the local minimization of a non-convex cost functional. The desired signal is proved to be a local minimum of the functional under mild conditions on the sensing ...

Understanding and Improving Kernel Local Descriptors [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computer Vision, 2018
We propose a multiple-kernel local-patch descriptor based on efficient match kernels from pixel gradients. It combines two parametrizations of gradient position and direction, each parametrization provides robustness to a different type of patch mis-registration: polar parametrization for noise in the patch dominant orientation detection, Cartesian for
