WILDS: A Benchmark of in-the-Wild Distribution Shifts

open access: yes, 2020
Distribution shifts -- where the training distribution differs from the test distribution -- can substantially degrade the accuracy of machine learning (ML) systems deployed in the wild. Despite their ubiquity in the real-world deployments, these distribution shifts are under-represented in the datasets widely used in the ML community today. To address

The Wild West is Wild: The Homicide Resource Curse [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2014
We document interpersonal violence as a dimension of the resource curse. We rely on a historical natural experiment in the United States, where mineral discoveries occurred sometimes before, sometimes after formal institutions were established in the county of discovery.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Construction géohistorique du « sauvage » de la Garonne toulousaine : quelle part de naturalité dans les paysages fluviaux ? (3ème partie)

open access: yesDéveloppement Durable et Territoires, 2014
The Garonne between Toulouse and the confluence of the Tarn is composed of many wetlands. Here, various protective devices would label a "wild" dimension to the river, supporting its maintenance and conservation without actually questioning their ...

Gene banks for wild and cultivated sunflower genetic resources☆

open access: yesOilseeds and fats, crops and lipids, 2020
Modern breeding of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.), which started 100 years ago, increased the number and the diversity of cultivated forms. In addition, for more than 50 years, wild sunflower and other Helianthus species have been collected in North ...

Counting in the Wild

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper we explore the scenario of learning to count multiple instances of objects from images that have been dot-annotated through crowdsourcing. Specifically, we work with a large and challenging image dataset of penguins in the wild, for which tens of thousands of volunteer annotators have placed dots on instances of penguins in tens of ...

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...
