Computing Stable Coalitions: Approximation Algorithms for Reward Sharing
Consider a setting where selfish agents are to be assigned to coalitions or projects from a fixed set P. Each project k is characterized by a valuation function; v_k(S) is the value generated by a set S of agents working on project k.

Psychophysical evidence for two routes to suppression before binocular summation of signals in human vision [PDF]
Visual mechanisms in primary visual cortex are suppressed by the superposition of gratings perpendicular to their preferred orientations. A clear picture of this process is needed to (i) inform functional architecture of image-processing models, (ii ...

Effect of prebiotic or probiotic supplementation and ileo rectal anastomosis on intestinal morphology of weaned piglets [PDF]
Forty eight 21 days old piglets were used to compare the effect of prebiotic or probiotic supplementation and ileo rectal anastomosis on the morphology of the small intestine. Half of the piglets were maintained intact and the other half was subjected to

Preparation of xylo-oligosaccharides and its effect on invitro proliferation of probiotics
Xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS) from corncob were prepared by microwave digestion and a commercial endoxylanase hydrolysis. "One-factor-at-a-time" method was applied to optimize the reaction parameters for improving XOS concentration, and the effect of ...
