TL;DR: This letter extends the heuristic homology algorithm of Needleman & Wunsch (1970) to find a pair of segments, one from each of two long sequences, such that there is no other Pair of segments with greater similarity (homology).

TL;DR: In this paper, the homology measure of Needleman and Wunsch is shown to be equivalent to the distance measure of Sellers, under general conditions, and a new algorithm is given to find similar pairs of segments, one segment from each sequence.

TL;DR: In this article, measured and derived values of coefficients for Lorentz and $CPT$ violation in the standard-model extension are tabulated and summary tables are extracted listing maximal attained sensitivities in the matter, photon, and gravity sectors.
Abstract: This work tabulates measured and derived values of coefficients for Lorentz and $CPT$ violation in the standard-model extension. Summary tables are extracted listing maximal attained sensitivities in the matter, photon, and gravity sectors. Tables presenting definitions and properties are also compiled.

TL;DR: Though the threat of extinction is increasing, overall declines would have been worse in the absence of conservation, and current conservation efforts remain insufficient to offset the main drivers of biodiversity loss in these groups.
Abstract: Using data for 25,780 species categorized on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List, we present an assessment of the status of the world's vertebrates. One-fifth of species are classified as Threatened, and we show that this figure is increasing: On average, 52 species of mammals, birds, and amphibians move one category closer to extinction each year. However, this overall pattern conceals the impact of conservation successes, and we show that the rate of deterioration would have been at least one-fifth again as much in the absence of these. Nonetheless, current conservation efforts remain insufficient to offset the main drivers of biodiversity loss in these groups: agricultural expansion, logging, overexploitation, and invasive alien species.
