Succession Dominates Alpha Male Replacement in Despotic Rhesus Monkeys: Insights from a Long-Term Study in the Taihang Mountains, Henan Province, China [PDF]
AnimalsAlpha male replacement occurs in many group-living non-human primates, but its characteristics remain under-explored. Species of the genus Macaca live in multi-male, multi-female groups and are structured into four levels of social styles, which may ...

Mathematical Programming, 2014 The reverse split rank of an integral polyhedron P is defined as the supremum of the split ranks of all rational polyhedra whose integer hull is P. Already in R^3 there exist polyhedra with infinite reverse split rank. We give a geometric characterization of the integral polyhedra in R^n with infinite reverse split rank.

Incremental Reverse Nearest Neighbor Ranking [PDF]
2009 IEEE 25th International Conference on Data Engineering, 2009 In this paper, we formalize the novel concept of incremental reverse nearest neighbor ranking and suggest an original solution for this problem. We propose an efficient approach for reporting the results incrementally without the need to restart the search from scratch.
