We use archival HARPS spectra to detect three planets orbiting the M3 dwarf Wolf 1061 (GJ 628). We detect a 1.36 M⊕ minimum-mass planet with an orbital period P = 4.888 d (Wolf 1061b), a 4.25 M⊕ minimum-mass planet with orbital period P = 17.867 d (Wolf 1061c), and a likely 5.21 M⊕ minimum-mass planet with orbital period P = 67.274 d (Wolf 1061d). All of the planets are of sufficiently low mass...

In this paper, the redundancy of both variable and fixed rate Slepian–Wolf coding is considered. Given any jointly memoryless source-side information pair with finite alphabet, the redundancy of variable rate Slepian–Wolf coding of  with decoder only side information depends on both the block length and the decoding block error probability , and is defined as the difference between the minimum...

In this work, a novel binary version of the grey wolf optimization (GWO) is proposed and used to select optimal feature subset for classification purposes. Grey wolf optimizer (GWO) is one of the latest bioinspired optimization techniques, which simulate the hunting process of grey wolves in nature. The binary version introduced here is performed using two different approaches. In the first app...

A Trichinella spiralis isolate obtained from a gray wolf (Canis lupus) in northwestern Montana in 1987 was evaluated for infectivity and resistance to freezing and its DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP's) compared to that from other sylvatic and domestic isolates. Infectivity indices in albino mice were low (<2.6) and correlated well with mouse infectivity data from other sylv...

We present BL-WoLF, a framework for learnability in repeated zero-sum games where the cost of learning is measured by the losses the learning agent accrues (rather than the number of rounds). The game is adversarially chosen from some family that the learner knows. The opponent knows the game and the learner’s learning strategy. The learner tries to either not accrue losses, or to quickly learn...

the robustness property can be added to dsc system at the expense of reducing performance, i.e., increasing the sum-rate. the aim of designing robust dsc schemes is to trade off between system robustness and compression efficiency. in this paper, after deriving an inner bound on the rate–distortion region for the quadratic gaussian mdc based rdsc system with two encoders, the structure of the r...

In the recent years, the optimization techniques using evolutionary algorithms have been widely used to solve electromagnetic problems. These algorithms use thinning the antenna arrays with the aim of reducing the complexity and thus achieving the optimal solution and decreasing the side lobe level. To obtain the optimal solution, thinning is performed by removing some elements in an array thro...

In this study, the performance of the algorithms of whale, Differential evolutionary, crow search, and Gray Wolf optimization were evaluated to operate the Golestan Dam reservoir with the objective function of meeting downstream water needs. Also, after defining the objective function and its constraints, the convergence degree of the algorithms was compared with each other and with the absolut...

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a dose-limiting toxicity of chemotherapy that often develops in response to administration of various drugs, including, molecularly targeted therapeutic agents (bortezomib), taxanes (paclitaxel, docetaxel), platinum compounds, platinum-containing drugs (cisplatin, carboplatin, oxaliplatin), vinca alkaloids (vincristine), thalidomide, lenalido...

BACKGROUND Gray wolves (Canis lupus) were reintroduced into Yellowstone National Park (YNP) after a >70 year absence, and as part of recovery efforts, the population has been closely monitored. In 1999 and 2005, pup survival was significantly reduced, suggestive of disease outbreaks. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We analyzed sympatric wolf, coyote (Canis latrans), and red fox (Vulpes vulpes)...
