The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey: Measuring the growth rate of structure around cosmic voids [PDF]
A&A 607, A54 (2017), 2016 We identified voids in the completed VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS), using an algorithm based on searching for empty spheres. We measured the cross-correlation between the centres of voids and the complete galaxy catalogue. The cross-correlation function exhibits a clear anisotropy in both VIPERS fields (W1 and W4), which is ...

Toxicity and symptomatic identification of species involved in snakebites in the Indian subcontinent
Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2006 Snakebites, being the major occupational hazard for farm workers, claim a large number of lives in the Indian subcontinent. During the course of medical management, identification of the biting species is given a low priority, resorting to prescription ...

VIPeR: Provably Efficient Algorithm for Offline RL with Neural Function Approximation [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We propose a novel algorithm for offline reinforcement learning called Value Iteration with Perturbed Rewards (VIPeR), which amalgamates the pessimism principle with random perturbations of the value function. Most current offline RL algorithms explicitly construct statistical confidence regions to obtain pessimism via lower confidence bounds (LCB ...

VoIgt profile Parameter Estimation Routine (VIPER): H I photoionization rate at z<0.5 [PDF]
MNRAS, 467, 3172 (2017), 2016 We have developed a parallel code called "VoIgt profile Parameter Estimation Routine (VIPER)" for automatically fitting the H I Ly-$\alpha$ forest seen in the spectra of QSOs. We obtained the H I column density distribution function (CDDF) and line width ($b$) parameter distribution for $z < 0.45$ using spectra of 82 QSOs obtained using Cosmic Origins ...

Vision loss following snakebite in a patient with controlled aplastic anemia
Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2009 Viper venoms act mainly on blood and blood vessels. Reports of ophthalmic manifestations after snakebite include ptosis and ophthalmoplegia. In the current study, we describe a case that developed bilateral retinal and subretinal hemorrhage following ...

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.We use Bothrops jararacussu as a model to introduce three different prey items (mice, exotic anuran – bullfrog and native anurans) in captivity. Our experiments indicated that native anurans could be an interesting food alternative to B. jararacussu and other Bothrops species with an ontogenetic diet in captivity.
