High resolution imaging spectroscopy data have been recognised as a valuable data resource for augmenting detailed material inventories that serve as input for various urban applications. Image-specific urban spectral libraries are successfully used in urban imaging spectroscopy studies. However, the regional- and sensor-specific transferability of such libraries is limited due to the wide rang...

In recent years, three superficially distinct urban subfields have made parallel efforts to incorporate the city’s traditional ‘outsides’ into urban research. Urban political ecology, American urban sociology and postcolonial urban studies have made, respectively, ‘nature’, the ‘rural’ and the ‘not-yet’ city the objects of self-consciously urban analyses. I argue that these interventions are an...

due to urbanization and population increase, need for metro tunnels, has been considerably increased in urban areas. estimating the surface settlement caused by tunnel excavation is an important task especially where the tunnels are excavated in urban areas or beneath important structures. many models have been established for this purpose by extracting the relationship between the settlement a...

according to the direct confrontation of dentist to oral complications of patients receiving radiotherapy, this study was conducted in cancer institute of imam khomeini hospital in 1376-1377. through this study, 70 patients expecting more than 4500 cgy radiation in salivary gland area was examined for xerostomia signs and symptoms . artificial saliva and placebo were prescribed for patients to ...

Brent D. Ryan first visited Detroit in 1993. Describing this experience, he says: ‘‘The sense of emptiness was overpowering. ... I felt as if I was walking into the ruin of America.’’ In his book ‘‘Design after decline—how America rebuilds shrinking cities,’’ Ryan tries to understand why so many American cities have been losing population, what was and is done to change the fortune of these cit...

This paper presents our submissions for the CoNLL 2017 UD Shared Task. Our parser, called UParse, is based on a neural network graph-based dependency parser. The parser uses features from a bidirectional LSTM to produce a distribution over possible heads for each word in the sentence. To allow transfer learning for lowresource treebanks and surprise languages, we train several multilingual mode...

Environmental change (i.e., urbanization) impacts species in contrasting ways, with some experiencing benefits given their way of life blood-sucking insects). How these respond to such is not well understood and for involved human diseases, this “how” question particularly important. Most Triatominae bug inhabit tropical subtropical forests where vertebrate hosts’ temporal abundance depends on ...

Automatic Sign Language Recognition is an extensive research area in the field of human computer interaction. Such recognition systems are meant to replace sign language interpreters. With the development of image processing and artificial intelligence techniques, many techniques have been recently developed in this area. Most of the signs in Indian Sign Language (ISL) are double handed and hen...
