Since this is the last lecture in the series about The Seven Deadly Sins, it might be a good idea to stand back and think for a moment about the point of such a list. That seven is a good, mystical number obviously makes us suspicious about any claim (if one was ever made) that the list of the deadly sins was arrived at by the exercise of pure reason ...

Nature, 1965
IN the course of an investigation intended to relate the size of the myelinated motor nerve fibres to the speed of the muscles in Choloepus hoffmanni Pet.1, in which the whole musculature is ‘red’ in character, we were struck by the unusual arrangement of the spinal roots. It is generally assumed that the backward obliquity of the spinal roots in adult

Neuromuscular responses of sloths
Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1973AbstractBecause sloths are among the slowest moving of mammals, it is of interest to determine whether the rate limiting factor is in their motivation, central nervous system, or their muscles.Muscle characteristics of ten sloths (Choloepus hoffmanni and Bradypus tridactylus) were studied by neuromuscular examination, electrophysiological, biochemical,

Sloth — The interactive workout planner
2017 International Conference on Companion Technology (ICCT), 2017We present the mixed-initiative planning system Sloth, which is designed to assist users in planning a fitness workout. Mixed-initiative planning systems are especially useful for companion systems, as they allow the seamless integration of the complex cognitive ability of planning into ambient assistance systems.

In this paper, we present the Sloth Search System (SSS) for large scale video browsing. Our key concept is to apply object recognition and scene classification to generate keyword tags from video images. This indexing process is performed only on selected frames for faster processing. The keyword tags are used to retrieve videos from a text-based query.

Childs Frick, honorary curator of the American Museum of Natural History, has kindly permitted me to examine and report upon a phalangeal element of an extinct megalonychid ground sloth from the Quaternary of Alaska. The specimen, No. F.A.M. 30844, a first or proximal phalanx, possibly of the fourth digit, manus, is larger than the corresponding bone ...

Alimentary mycosis is seldom reported in sloths. Through a multi-institutional retrospective study, we described the histological features of fungal infections within the digestive tract of sloths of the Bradypus and Choloepus genera.
