to extract the candidate locations of chromatins and nucleoli. This method is applied on 100microscopic images and succeeds with specificity of 80.2 % and sensitivity of 84.3 % to detect the nucleolus candidate zone. After nucleolus candidate zone detection, new features that can be used to classify atypical

Motivated by recent discoveries of nearby galaxies in the Zone of Avoidance, we conducted a pilot study of galaxy candidates at low Galactic latitude, near Galactic longitude l ∼ 1350, where the Supergalactic Plane is crossed by the Galactic Plane. We observed with the 1m Wise Observatory in the I

Executive summary Quantitative data on the diversity, densities and species compositions of assemblages of fish in reef, seagrass and unvegetated sand habitats in three management zones of the Jurien Bay Marine Park have been obtained for each season during the first year of this project. The three

To get beyond the ‘‘low-hanging fruits’ ’ so far identified by genome-wide association (GWA) studies, new methods must be developed in order to discover the numerous remaining genes that estimates of heritability indicate should be contributing to complex human phenotypes, such as obesity. Here we describe a novel integrative method for complex disease gene identification utilizing both genome-wide transcript profiling of adipose tissue samples and consequent analysis of genome-wide association data generated in large SNP scans. We infer causality of genes with obesity by employing a unique set of monozygotic twin pairs

Abstract — In this paper we propose an OCR system for Telugu based on the candidate search and elimination technique. The initial candidates for recognition are found by applying a zoning method on input glyphs. We propose cavities as a structural approach suited specifically for Telugu script

to the high extinction and stellar obscuration at low Galactic latitudes. An X-ray search for cluster candidates overcomes the problems faced by optically selected catalogues, hence providing the first opportunity to explore the sky in the traditional Zone of Avoidance; principally, the Great Attractor region

The possibility of enhancing a B-spline basis with discontinuities by means of knot insertion makes isogeometric finite elements a suitable candidate for modeling discrete cracks. In this contribution we use isogeometric finite elements to discretize the cohesive zone formulation for failure

for 10 8 yr. In addition, we extensively investigate the planetary configuration of four outer companions with one terrestrial planet in the wide region of 0.790 AU ≤ a ≤ 5.900 AU to examine the existence of potential asteroid structure and Habitable Zones (HZs). We show that there are unstable regions

Bed 6e to 7b, and this gradual N13C excursion also suggests the sequences around the Guadalupian^Lopingian boundary at the candidate section are conformable. During the middle-later C. postbitteri zone a 3.5x dramatic N13C depletion is recorded at the Tieqiao section, but only a 2x depletion

Abstract – The rate of subduction is larger than the convergence rate along W-directed subduction zones, whereas it is smaller along E- or NE-directed subduction zones. Along W-directed slabs, the subduction rate is the convergence rate plus the slab retreat rate, which tends to equal the backarc
