The amygdala, part of the limbic system, is a small collection of neurons located in the ventral temporal lobe, and can be divided into two morphologically and functionally distinct nuclei - the corticomedial, a phylogenetically old group, and the basolateral, a phylogenetically more recent group. Both divisions of the amygdala have extensive interconnections with the hypothalamus, the corticom...

Readability of document images is one core issue when analysing historical documents. One way to improve the readability of those document images is image binarization. By separating the written text from its background, documents degraded by, e.g., stains or faded ink become better readable. Due to the large quantity of available historical document images, this binarization needs to be done e...

In this paper, we evaluate how stable a set of frequently used third-party libraries is in terms of method removals, implementation change, the ratio of change in old methods to change in new ones and the percentage of new methods in each snapshot. We provide a motivating example of a commercial company which demonstrates seve...
