TL;DR: MTE potentials that approximate standard PDF’s and applications of these potentials will extend the types of inference problems that can be modelled with Bayesian networks, as demonstrated using three examples.
Abstract: Mixtures of truncated exponentials (MTE) potentials are an alternative to discretization and Monte Carlo methods for solving hybrid Bayesian networks. Any probability density function (PDF) can be approximated by an MTE potential, which can always be marginalized in closed form. This allows propagation to be done exactly using the Shenoy-Shafer architecture for computing marginals, with no restrictions on the construction of a join tree. This paper presents MTE potentials that approximate standard PDF's and applications of these potentials for solving inference problems in hybrid Bayesian networks. These approximations will extend the types of inference problems that can be modelled with Bayesian networks, as demonstrated using three examples.

TL;DR: In this article, the morphological characteristics of pore shapes and sizes of biological soil crusts were studied and measured by image analysis of polished resin-impregnated soil blocks, showing that the most abundant pore types were small unconnected rounded pores.
Abstract: Little is known about the morphological characteristics of pores in soil crusts The objective was to characterize the two-dimensional (2D) porosity (amount, shape, size, and area of pores) of soil crusts to ascertain their potential as indicators of soil quality for natural crusted soils The 2D-porosity was described in thin sections and measured by image analysis of polished resin-impregnated soil blocks Physical soil crust and incipient biological soil crusts appear to be the lowest-quality soils in terms of number of pores (average of 131–133 cm -1 ) and area occupied by pores or meso-macroporosity (35–42%) Their most abundant pore types were small unconnected rounded pores Soil crust infiltration coefficients (65–72% annual) were among the lowest and their high erosion rates (81– 204 g m -2 yr -1 ) were not only due to their lower total porosity, but also to their pore shapes and sizes Biological

TL;DR: This article conducted a systematic review of 502 articles published between 2000 and 2016 to characterize the research on human-carnivore relations according to (i) temporal and geographical distribution, (ii) biology, (iii) relations between carnivores and humans, (iv) social actors, (v) drivers of change, (vi) management, and (vii) applied methods.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed and compared the landscape changes of two Nature Reserves in Spain, Sierra Norte de Sevilla Natural Park (SNSNP) and Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve (UBR), over the last 50 years.
