Highly Efficient Regression for Scalable Person Re-Identification

open access: yes, 2016
Existing person re-identification models are poor for scaling up to large data required in real-world applications due to: (1) Complexity: They employ complex models for optimal performance resulting in high computational cost for training at a large ...

Evolutionary trajectories of snake genes and genomes revealed by comparative analyses of five-pacer viper

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Snakes have numerous features distinctive from other tetrapods and a rich history of genome evolution that is still obscure. Here, we report the high-quality genome of the five-pacer viper, Deinagkistrodon acutus, and comparative analyses with other ...

Living in the Hedge: Farmland Reptile Diversity Is Driven by Hedgerow Structural Complexity and Landscape Connectivity

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Agricultural intensification is responsible for biodiversity decline, but high‐quality field margins may mitigate these effects. We studied reptile species richness in a farming landscape in western France with a focus on hedgerows structure and density.

Group Membership Prediction

open access: yes, 2015
The group membership prediction (GMP) problem involves predicting whether or not a collection of instances share a certain semantic property. For instance, in kinship verification given a collection of images, the goal is to predict whether or not they ...

Verifiable Reinforcement Learning via Policy Extraction

open access: yes, 2019
While deep reinforcement learning has successfully solved many challenging control tasks, its real-world applicability has been limited by the inability to ensure the safety of learned policies. We propose an approach to verifiable reinforcement learning

Current cosmological constraints from a 10 parameter CMB analysis

open access: yes, 2000
We compute the constraints on a ``standard'' 10 parameter cold dark matter (CDM) model from the most recent CMB and data and other observations, exploring 30 million discrete models and two continuous parameters.

Exploring circulatory shock and mortality in viper envenomation: a prospective observational study from India

open access: yesQJM : monthly journal of the Association of Physicians, 2018
Background Viper envenomation contributes to nearly 50% of snake-bite deaths in India, chiefly due to circulatory shock. The mechanisms leading to circulatory shock include bleeding, capillary leak syndrome (CLS) and myocardial depression.

Effectiveness of protected areas in the Caucasus Mountains in preventing rangeland degradation

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract As land use intensifies globally, it increasingly exerts pressure on protected areas. Despite open, nonforested landscapes comprising up to 40% of protected areas globally, assessments have predominately focused on forests, overlooking the major pressures on rangelands from livestock overgrazing and land conversion.

Status Epilepticus and Bilateral Middle Cerebral Artery Infarction: A Rare Presentation after Viper Bite

open access: yesAnnals of African medicine, 2019
Owing to the antihemostatic property of viper venom, hemorrhagic complications including intracerebral hemorrhage are the most commonly encountered after viper bite.
