TL;DR: The role of friction between the microhardness indenter and the test specimen is addressed through the analysis of dry (unlubricated) and lubricated tests on iron by Atkinson and Shi as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The role of friction between the microhardness indenter and the test specimen is addressed through the analysis of dry (unlubricated) and lubricated tests on iron by Atkinson and Shi. Quantitative evaluation through a proportional specimen resistance model accurately describes the results. It suggests that friction is a major portion of the observed hardness increase at low test loads, the indentation size effect. The ISE is related to the surface-area-to-volume ratio of the indentation, which is inversely related to the indentation dimension.

TL;DR: It is shown that the proposed Hybrid SVM can reach a classification accuracy of up to 99.38% for the EEG datasets and is an efficient tool for neuroscientists to detect epileptic seizure in EEG.
Abstract: The aim of this study is to establish a hybrid model for epileptic seizure detection with genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) to determine the optimum parameters of support vector machines (SVMs) for classification of EEG data. SVMs are one of the robust machine learning techniques and have been extensively used in many application areas. The kernel parameter’s setting for SVMs in training process effects the classification accuracy. We used GA- and PSO-based approach to optimize the SVM parameters. Compared to the GA algorithm, the PSO-based approach significantly improves the classification accuracy. It is shown that the proposed Hybrid SVM can reach a classification accuracy of up to 99.38% for the EEG datasets. Hence, the proposed Hybrid SVM is an efficient tool for neuroscientists to detect epileptic seizure in EEG.

TL;DR: It is shown that the present day distribution of alleles is a function of both ancient migration and very recent population movements, and a unique pattern of circulating viral DNA in plasma with high prevalence of hepatitis B and other clinically relevant maternal infections is identified.

TL;DR: Two important results refer to the complementarity of spectral analysis of a time series in terms of the continuous and the discrete part of its power spectrum and the need for coupled modeling of natural and socio-economic systems.
Abstract: We review work on extreme events, their causes and consequences, by a group of European and American researchers involved in a three-year project on these topics The review covers theoretical aspects of time series analysis and of extreme value theory, as well as of the deterministic modeling of extreme events, via continuous and discrete dynamic models The applications include climatic, seismic and socio-economic events, along with their prediction Two important results refer to (i) the complementarity of spectral analysis of a time series in terms of the continuous and the discrete part of its power spectrum; and (ii) the need for coupled modeling of natural and socio-economic systems Both these results have implications for the study and prediction of natural hazards and their human impacts

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) on board the Hubble Space Telescope, Ks (2.15?m) imaging with ADONIS at the 3.6 m telescope at La Silla, and mid-infrared imaging with OSCIR using the 4 m Blanco Telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory confirm the detection of the disk reported by Pantin et al. at Ks.
Abstract: Coronagraphic imaging of the nearest Herbig Be star with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) on board the Hubble Space Telescope, Ks (2.15 ?m) imaging with ADONIS at the 3.6 m telescope at La Silla, and mid-infrared imaging with OSCIR using the 4 m Blanco Telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory confirm the detection of the disk reported by Pantin et al. and map the disk out to 5'' (~515 AU) in the optical and at Ks. While the source is unresolved at 10 and 18 ?m, it can be traced to 15 at 11.7 ?m. We confirm the change in the radial dependence of the disk surface brightness near 27 seen at 1.6 ?m by Augereau et al. at Ks. No such break in the power law is seen in the optical. The STIS data reveal spiral dark lane structure, making HD 100546 the third near?zero-age main-sequence Herbig Ae/Be star with structure more than 100 AU from the star. We also optically detect a low surface brightness envelope extending 10'' (1000 AU) from the star, in addition to nebulosity, which is probably associated with DC 292.6-7.9. The survival of the envelope through essentially the entire pre?main-sequence lifetime of the star, coupled with the absence of physical companions within 1500 AU of the star, suggests that envelope lifetimes owe more to the star-forming environment than to mass-loss activity from the Herbig Ae/Be star.
