Epidemiologic studies on Dengue in Santiago de Cuba, 1997.

A small, isolated outbreak of dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome (DHF/DSS) due to dengue virus type 2 (DEN-2) was documented in Santiago de Cuba on the island of Cuba beginning in January 1997. There were 205 DHF/DSS cases, all in persons older than age 15 years. All but three had evidence of a prior dengue infection, with the only known opportunity being the islandwide dengue virus...

Object-based Building Extraction in Tacna, Peru Using Worldview-2 Images

In conducting damage assessment for scenario earthquakes in high seismic risk regions, building inventory data are required as well as building fragility functions and strong-motion distributions. But inventory data with the locations and characteristics of buildings are not so easy to construct, especially for developing countries. Hence in this study, an approach to construct building invento...

Reemergence of dengue in Cuba: a 1997 epidemic in Santiago de Cuba.

After 15 years of absence, dengue reemerged in the municipality of Santiago de Cuba because of increasing migration to the area by people from disease-endemic regions, a high level of vector infestation, and the breakdown of eradication measures. The 1997 epidemic was detected early through an active surveillance system. Of 2,946 laboratory-confirmed cases, 205 were dengue hemorrhagic fever, an...

Séminaire Lotharingien de Combinatoire, B39c(1997), 38pp. FREE PROBABILITY THEORY AND NON-CROSSING PARTITIONS

Voiculescu’s free probability theory – which was introduced in an operator algebraic context, but has since then developed into an exciting theory with a lot of links to other fields – has an interesting combinatorial facet: it can be described by the combinatorial concept of multiplicative functions on the lattice of non-crossing partitions. In this survey I want to explain this connection – w...
