A swarm of the seven-spot ladybird Coccinella septempunctata (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) carried on a cruise ship

European Journal of Entomology, 2010
Several thousands of the seven-spot ladybird Coccinella septempunctata L., descended upon a cruise ship over several hours in daylight while in port in Morocco in April 2009. The ship had recently arrived from South America.

The Fate (Outcome) of Clinically Apparent Single Lesion and Oligofocal Nephroblastomatosis Treated According to SIOP/GPOH Protocols for Wilms Tumor

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The management of clinically apparent single lesions or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis, a facultative precursor of nephroblastoma, remains debated. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 37 patients with clinically apparent single or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis (two to three lesions per kidney) among 2347 patients registered between

Gravitational Search Algorithm Swarm-Based UAV Reconnaissance for Multiple Targets Detection in Unknown Environment

IEEE Access
Target detection in an unknown environment is a crucial aspect of reconnaissance using a swarm of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). An efficient target detection technique is required to minimize the number of iterations for searching and maximize the ...

Germline TP53 Mutations Causing Diamond–Blackfan Anemia: A French Report

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diamond–Blackfan anemia is a rare congenital erythroblastopenia typically caused by mutations in ribosomal protein genes. Recently, gain‐of‐function mutations in TP53 have been identified as a novel cause of Diamond–Blackfan anemia. We report two French patients who both harbored a heterozygous TP53 deletion (NM_000546.5: c.1077delA; p ...

MSCM: A geomagnetic model derived from Swarm, CSES, and MSS-1 satellite data and the evolution of the South Atlantic Anomaly

Earth and Planetary Physics
Measurements from geomagnetic satellites continue to underpin advances in geomagnetic field models that describe Earth’s internally generated magnetic field. Here, we present a new field model, MSCM, that integrates vector and scalar data from the Swarm,

Deep swarm: Nested particle swarm optimization [PDF]

2017 IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence (SSCI), 2017
A new generation of particle swarm optimization (PSO) has been developed that automatically evolves optimal or near-optimal values for parameters of the PSO algorithm such as population size and neighborhood size, and, if used, parameters of associated neural network(s), such as number of hidden processing elements (PEs).

Swarm potential fields with internal agent states and collective behaviour [PDF]

, 2007
Swarm robotics is a new and promising approach to the design and control of multi-agent robotic systems. In this paper we use a model for a system of self-propelled agents interacting via pairwise attractive and repulsive potentials.

Two Faces of NOTCH1 in Childhood Lymphoblastic T‐Cell Neoplasia: Prognostic Divergence of Mutational and Structural Aberrations

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In pediatric patients, T‐cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T‐LBL) survival exceeds 80%. Relapse remains associated with limited curative options. Frontline treatment is largely extrapolated from T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T‐ALL) treatment, reflecting the ongoing debate, whether both entities represent distinct diseases or variants within ...

Modeling Dynamic Swarms [PDF]

, 2010
This paper proposes the problem of modeling video sequences of dynamic swarms (DS). We define DS as a large layout of stochastically repetitive spatial configurations of dynamic objects (swarm elements) whose motions exhibit local spatiotemporal ...
