Cytotoxicity of Southeast Asian snake venoms
Cytotoxicity of venoms from eleven medically important snakes found in Southeast Asia (Naja kaouthia, Naja siamensis, Naja sumatrana, Ophiophagus hannah, Bungarus candidus, Bungarus fasciatus, Enhydrina schistosa, Calloselasma rhodostoma, Trimeresurus ...

Comparing and Combining Approximate Computing Frameworks [PDF]
Approximate computing frameworks configure applications so they can operate at a range of points in an accuracy-performance trade-off space. Prior work has introduced many frameworks to create approximate programs. As approximation frameworks proliferate, it is natural to ask how they can be compared and combined to create even larger, richer trade-off

The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey: Measuring the growth rate of structure around cosmic voids [PDF]
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 ...

Despite the medical significance to humans and important ecological roles filled by vipers, few high-quality genomic resources exist for these snakes outside of a few genera of pitvipers. Here we sequence, assemble, and annotate the genome of Fea’s Viper

Toxicity and symptomatic identification of species involved in snakebites in the Indian subcontinent
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 ...

The targeting of specific prey by snake venom toxins is a fascinating aspect of molecular and ecological evolution. Neurotoxic targeting by elapid snakes dominates the literature in this regard; however, recent studies have revealed viper toxins also ...

Abstract Objective Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) are recognized to have a pivotal role in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, we assessed the vascular function of women with RPL and examined the association with each type of aPL.

VIPeR: Provably Efficient Algorithm for Offline RL with Neural Function Approximation [PDF]
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 ...
