An adaptive evidence structure for Bayesian recognition of 3D objects
Classification of an object under various environmental conditions is a challenge for developing a reliable service robot. In this work, we show problems of using simple Naive Bayesian classifier and propose a Tree-Augmented Naive (TAN) Bayesian Network -- based classifier. We separate feature space into binary TRUE/FA...

In this paper, we study the design of deep learning-powered iterative combinatorial auctions (ICAs). We build on prior work where preference elicitation was done via kernelized support vector regressions (SVRs). However, the SVR-based approach has limitations because it requires solving a machine learning (ML)-based wi...

Sources and characteristics of terrestrial carbon in Holocene-scale sediments of the East Siberian Sea
. Thawing of permafrost carbon (PF-C) due to climate warming can remobilise considerable amounts of terrestrial carbon from its long-term storage to the marine environment. PF-C can be then be buried in sediments or remineralised to CO2 with implications for the carbon–climate feedback. Studying historical sediment rec...

The small GTPase Rab11 and its effectors FIP3 and Rabin8 are essential to membrane-trafficking pathways required for cytokinesis and ciliogenesis. Although effector binding is generally assumed to be sequential and mutually exclusive, we show that Rab11 can simultaneously bind FIP3 and Rabin8. We determined crystal str...

Tunable Lanthanide Directed Metallosupramolecular Networks By Exploiting Coordinative Flexibility Through Ligand Stoichiometry
We report the self-assembly of multi-component lanthanide coordination metallosupramolecular structures on a Au(111) surface. Eu atoms coordinate with two heterotypic ligands of quarterphenyl-4,4′′-dicarbonitrile and 4′,4′′′′-(1,4-phenylene)bis(2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine). For carbonitrile ligand : terpyridyl stoichiometr...

Why is business in some countries more hostile to social redistribution than in others?
Can differences in the attitudes and organization of business interests explain differences in the politics of social redistribution across countries? Since the 1970s, Europe and the United States have diverged in terms of how taxation and welfare policies ameliorate income inequality: In the United States, far-reachin...

European procurers platform - ehealth - transforming the market for ehealth solutions
Public Procurement of Innovation (PPI) is a crucial challenge for public bodies to be implemented during next years. The “usual” way of purchasing goods is based solely on the price of the product. Life cycle costing, supply chain analysis or group purchase are rarely used, which means missing some opportunities to get...

Although it has been documented that daily precipitation extremes are increasing worldwide, faster increases may be expected for subdaily extremes. Here after a careful quality control procedure, we compared trends in hourly and daily precipitation extremes using a large network of stations across the United States (U....

Therapeutic targeting of macrophages enhances chemotherapy efficacy by unleashing type I interferon response
Recent studies have revealed a role for macrophages and neutrophils in limiting chemotherapy efficacy; however, the mechanisms underlying the therapeutic benefit of myeloid-targeting agents in combination with chemotherapy are incompletely understood. Here, we show that targeting tumour-associated macrophages by colony...

Coupling between overall rotational diffusion and domain motions in proteins and its effect on dielectric spectra
In this work, we formulate a closed-form solution of the model of a semirigid molecule for the case of fluctuating and reorienting molecular electric dipole moment. We illustrate with numeric calculations the impact of protein domain motions on dielectric spectra using the example of the 128 kDa protein dimer of Enzyme...

The influence of cooling, crystallisation and re-melting on the interpretation of geodetic signals in volcanic systems
Deformation of volcanic edifices is typically attributed to the movement of magma within the volcanic plumbing system, but a wide range of magmatic processes are capable of producing significant volume variations and may also produce deformation. In order to understand the evolution of magmatic systems prior to eruptio...

Tool use behaviours tend to be split into cases that appear to entail complex cognitive abilities and that are highly reliant on learning to be acquired (e. g. flexible tool use), and into others that seem to be more genetically canalized (e. g. stereotyped tool use). However recent evidences suggest that the differe...
