Pooling designs with surprisingly high degree of error correction in a finite vector space [PDF]
Pooling designs are standard experimental tools in many biotechnical applications. It is well-known that all famous pooling designs are constructed from mathematical structures by the "containment matrix" method. In particular, Macula's designs (resp. Ngo and Du's designs) are constructed by the containment relation of subsets (resp.

An Unsupervised Method for Detection and Validation of The Optic Disc and The Fovea [PDF]
In this work, we have presented a novel method for detection of retinal image features, the optic disc and the fovea, from colour fundus photographs of dilated eyes for Computer-aided Diagnosis(CAD) system. A saliency map based method was used to detect the optic disc followed by an unsupervised probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis for detection ...

The New Horizons spacecraft provided near global observations of Pluto that far exceed the resolution of Earth-based data sets. Most Pluto New Horizons analysis hitherto has focused on the encounter hemisphere of Pluto (i.e., the antiCharon hemisphere containing Sputnik Planitia). In this work, we summarize and interpret data on the far side (i.e., the
