Nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) is a solid-state radio frequency spectroscopic technique that can be used to detect compounds which contain quadrupolar nuclei, a requirement fulfilled by many high explosives and narcotics. Unfortunately, the low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the observed signals currently inhibits the widespread use of the technique, thus highlighting the need for intelligent

The number of applications in computer vision that model higher-order interactions has exploded over the last few years. The standard technique for solving such problems is to reduce the higher-order objective function to a quadratic pseudo-boolean function, and then use roof duality for obtaining a lower bound. Roof duality works by constructing the tightest possible lower-bounding submodular fun

Benefits policy developers and advisors, practitioners, researchers and others interested in dealing with uncertainty in climate adaptation decision-making Offers case studies from different geographical regions and a wide variety of real-life adaptation situations Presents a new support framework for climate change adaptation decisions under uncertainty Climate change highlights the challeng

We present an educational math game, including a teachable agent and an off-task conversation module in the form of a social chat. A recent study [1] indicates that the added off-task conversation module can i) improve students' game experience, ii) improve learning outcomes, and iii) engage learners in voluntary on-domain chat

Filamentous fungi produce asexual dispersive spores (conidia), when conditions are not suitable for apical extension growth. Conidiation (the process by which conidia produced) in genus Penicillium has attracted considerable interest because of its wide usage in different areas. In addition, several Penicillium species are pathogenic toward humans and plants, causing crop spoilage as well as decay

In this paper we develop a simple maximum likelihood estimator for probit models where the regressors have measurement error. We first assume precise information about the reliability ratios (or, equivalently, the proxy correlations) of the regressors. We then show how reasonable bounds for the parameter estimates can be obtained when only imprecise information is available. The analysis is also e

The Epistola solitarii was written by Alfonso of Jaén, St. Birgitta's Spanish confessor, who was editor-in-chief of her Revelationes. It defends the heavenly origin and inspiration against those who claimed that she was inspired by the devil.

In this article I analyse the HBO TV-series SIX FEET UNDER, and it's depiction of life and death, or more correctly: living and dying. I focus on the intermedial aspects of story and how it produces meaning in images, words, and music. I briefly present the story and the main characters; then I analyze the opening vignette (which opens every episode), and the final scene.
