TL;DR: In this article, an inventory of planning education programs available throughout the member states of the Council of Europe was developed to quantify the provision as a critical first step to advance our understanding of the complex dynamics at work, which to date have been only partially explored in the literature.

TL;DR: A new method of document re-ranking is proposed that enables us to improve document scores using inter-document relationships, expressed by distances and can be obtained from the text, hyperlinks or other information.
Abstract: Lately there has been intensive research into the possibilities of using additional information about documents (such as hyperlinks) to improve retrieval effectiveness. It is called data fusion, based on the intuitive principle that different document and query representations or different methods lead to a better estimation of the documents' relevance scores.In this paper we propose a new method of document re-ranking that enables us to improve document scores using inter-document relationships. These relationships are expressed by distances and can be obtained from the text, hyperlinks or other information. The method formalizes the intuition that strongly related documents should not be assigned very different weights.

TL;DR: The molecular rules governing PLpro substrate specificity are revealed and a framework for development of inhibitors with potential therapeutic value or drug repositioning is provided and designed optimal fluorogenic substrates and irreversible inhibitors with a high degree of selectivity for SARS PLpro variants versus other proteases.
Abstract: In December 2019, the first cases of a novel coronavirus infection causing COVID-19 were diagnosed in Wuhan, China. Viral Papain-Like cysteine protease (PLpro, NSP3) is essential for SARS-CoV-2 replication and represents a promising target for the development of antiviral drugs which would be facilitated by an understanding of its substrate specificity. Here, we used a combinatorial substrate library containing natural and a wide variety of nonproteinogenic amino acids and performed comprehensive activity profiling of SARS-CoV-2-PLpro. We found that the P2 site of SARS-CoV-2-PLpro is highly specific for Gly, the P3 site exhibits a high degree of promiscuity, and the P4 site exhibits a preference for amino acids with hydrophobic side chains. We also demonstrate that SARS-CoV-2-PLpro harbors deubiquitinating activity. Both the substrate binding profile and deubiquitinating activity are shared with the highly related SARS-CoV-PLpro which harbors near identical S4-S2 binding pockets. On the scaffold of best hits from positional scanning we have designed optimal fluorogenic substrates and irreversible inhibitors with a high degree of selectivity for SARS PLpro variants versus other proteases. Altogether this work has revealed the molecular rules governing PLpro substrate specificity and provides a framework for development of inhibitors with potential therapeutic value or drug repositioning.

TL;DR: This paper proposes an efficient incremental instance selection method for massive data streams that continuously update and remove outdated examples from the case-base, which alleviates the high computational requirements of the original classifier, thus making it suitable for the considered problem.
Abstract: Mining massive and high-speed data streams among the main contemporary challenges in machine learning. This calls for methods displaying a high computational efficacy, with ability to continuously update their structure and handle ever-arriving big number of instances. In this paper, we present a new incremental and distributed classifier based on the popular nearest neighbor algorithm, adapted to such a demanding scenario. This method, implemented in Apache Spark, includes a distributed metric-space ordering to perform faster searches. Additionally, we propose an efficient incremental instance selection method for massive data streams that continuously update and remove outdated examples from the case-base. This alleviates the high computational requirements of the original classifier, thus making it suitable for the considered problem. Experimental study conducted on a set of real-life massive data streams proves the usefulness of the proposed solution and shows that we are able to provide the first efficient nearest neighbor solution for high-speed big and streaming data.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the kinetics of spent nickel oxide catalyst (NiO/Al 2 O 3 ) leaching in sulphuric acid solutions and found that the reaction is controlled by diffusion through the catalyst network with activation energy of 16.6 ± 0.9 kJ/mol.
