UK oceanography institute to close

Mathew Garnett , Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute , UK

Mining large datasets using machine learning approaches often leads to models that are hard to interpret and not amenable to the generation of hypotheses that can be experimentally tested. Finding ‘actionable knowledge’ is becoming more important, but also more challenging as datasets grow in size and complexity. We present ‘Logic Optimization for Binary Input to Continuous Output’ (LOBICO), a ...

Close to close packing ∗

For various lattice gas models with nearest neighbour exclusion (and, in one case, second-nearest neighbour exclusion as well), we obtain lower bounds on m, the average number of particles on the non-excluded lattice sites closest ∗We dedicate this work to the memory of Ann Stell, beloved friend of OP and beloved wife of GS.

Close - to - Death Experience after Trauma

تجربه نزدیک به مرگ، یکسری وقایع واضحی است که توسط افراد معدودی بعد از دوره ای از مرگ بالینی گزارش می گردد (بعضی از افراد این تجربیات را به دنبال جراحی، تولد بچه و خودکشی عنوان می نمایند. برخی از مؤلفین برآورد کرده اند که تقریبا ۴۰ درصد افرادی که بطور موفق احیاء شده اند و یا در موقعیتهای تهدید کننده زندگی قرار گرفته اند، تجربه نزدیک مرگ داشته اند. قربانیان اغلب بعضی از وقایع را در طول احیاء بیاد...

A Nanosatellite to Demonstrate Gps Oceanography Reflectometry

This paper describes a proposal for a rapid, low cost, nanosatellite mission to demonstrate the concept of GPS ocean reflectometry and to investigate the feasibility of determining sea state for a future operational space-based storm warning systems. The aims of this mission are to prove the general feasibility of GPS ocean reflectometry, to demonstrate sea state determination and to enable the...
