we introduce a two generated weakly branch contracting automaton group $g$ which is generated by a two state automaton on a three letter alphabet. using its branch structure and the finiteness nature of a sequence of its factor groups we compute the order of some of these factors. furthermore some algebraic properties of $g$ are detected .

Modern plant phenotyping requires tools that are robust to noise and missing data, while being able efficiently process large numbers of plants. Here, we studied the skeletonization architectures from 3D point clouds, which is critical for many downstream tasks, including analyses shape, morphology, branching angles. Specifically, developed an algorithm improve at branch points (forks) by lever...

This paper presents a novel data mining technique, known as Post Sequential Patterns Mining. The technique can be used to discover structural patterns that are composed of sequential patterns, branch patterns or iterative patterns. The concurrent branch pattern is one of the main forms of structural patterns and plays an important role in event-based data modelling. To discover concurrent branc...

The freshwater polyp Hydra produces buds which separate from the parent. Other Hydrozoa produce branches which remain connected to the parent, thus forming a colony. Some Hydrozoa grow by means of an organ that is like a shoot apical meristem. Others display a sympodial type of growth. In this article, I propose that these different types of branches are organized by a common pattern-forming sy...

A Monte Carlo simulation exploring uncertainties in standard stellar evolution theory on the red giant branch of metal-poor globular clusters has been conducted. Confidence limits are derived on the absolute V -band magnitude of the bump in the red giant branch luminosity function (MV,b) and the excess number of stars in the bump, Rb. The analysis takes into account uncertainties in the primord...

Our main aim was to study the mylohyoid nerve, but during cadaveric dissections an unnamed branch of the lingual nerve was encountered incidentally. Dissections of sublingual and pterygomandibular spaces on 13 cadavers preserved in formalin showed an unnamed branch present bilaterally in 11 specimens, which had not been identified before in any of the anatomical textbooks. The branch extended h...
