Topic Introduction Estimating Surface Area in Biological Structures

Stereological estimates of surface have led to important insights into normal and pathological processes. This article describes the process of estimating surface area in biological structures. It includes a discussion of relationship equations for estimating surface and procedures for estimating surface area of components of organ systems. It also provides an example of estimation of the area ...

Estimating Surface Area in Early Hominins

Height and weight-based methods of estimating surface area have played an important role in the development of the current consensus regarding the role of thermoregulation in human evolution. However, such methods may not be reliable when applied to early hominins because their limb proportions differ markedly from those of humans. Here, we report a study in which this possibility was evaluated...

A Formula for Estimating Surface Area of Dairy Cattle

It has long been accepted as a fact that heat production in the animal body is due to the oxidation processes within the body, and hence is an accurate measure of the rate of metabolism. In order to utilize this standard in research, it becomes necessary to devise a satisfactory method for comparing the heat production of animals of different sizes. Very early in nutritional investigations it b...

Biological Structures

This collection of extraordinary photographs surveys cellular ultrastructure, histology, embryology, radiology, and botany. The preface to each of the book's five sections briefly explains the techniques used to obtain the photographs. The captions and the labeling of photographs are especially clear and make the material easy to comprehend. In addition to the "standards," the electron microsco...

Estimating Markov model structures

We investigate the derivation of Markov model structures from text corpora. The structure of a Markov model is its number of states plus the set of outputs and transitions with non-zero probability. The domain of the investigated models is part-of-speech tagging. Our investigations concern two methods to derive Markov models and their structures. Both are able to form categories and allow words...
