Examining the paradoxical effects of kratom: a narrative inquiry
Introduction: Surveys and case reports have documented kratom use in the United States (US) for over a decade. However, those reports have generally not examined in depth the role kratom plays in the lives of those who use it regularly for sustained ...

Evaluation of Matching Costs for High-Quality Sea-Ice Surface Reconstruction from Aerial Images
Satellite remote sensing can be used effectively with a wide coverage and repeatability in large-scale Arctic sea-ice analysis. To produce reliable sea-ice information, satellite remote-sensing methods should be established and validated using accurate ...

Online Unit Profit Knapsack with Untrusted Predictions
A variant of the online knapsack problem is considered in the settings of trusted and untrusted predictions. In Unit Profit Knapsack, the items have unit profit, and it is easy to find an optimal solution offline: Pack as many of the smallest items as possible into the knapsack. For Online Unit Profit Knapsack, the competitive ratio is unbounded.

ASTER-Derived High-Resolution Ice Surface Temperature for the Arctic Coast
Ice surface temperature (IST) controls the rate of sea ice growth and the heat exchange between the atmosphere and ocean. In this study, high-resolution IST using the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection radiometer (ASTER) thermal infrared

Multi-loop quality scalability based on high efficiency video coding [PDF]
Scalable video coding performance largely depends on the underlying single layer coding efficiency. In this paper, the quality scalability capabilities are evaluated on a base of the new High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard under development.
