Theriodopteryx ephemeraeformis commonly known as bag worms produce ultrafine silk fibers that are remarkably different than the common domesticated (Bombyx mori) and wild (Saturniidae) silk fibers. Bag worms are considered as pests and commonly infect trees and shrubs. Although it has been known that the cocoons (bags) produced by bag worms are composed of silk, the structure and properties of ...

Intravenous pressure bag Theatre table TECHNiQUE An intravenous fluid pressure bag is placed under the pelvis at the start of the procedure. To protect the patient from direct contact with the bag and the plastic components of the device, the bag is placed under a gel pad. The pump protrudes over a lateral edge of the operating table. Having reached the point when the modified position is requi...

In this paper we present the Word Sense Disambiguation Development Environment (WSDDE), a platform for testing various Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) technologies, as well as the results of first experiments in applying the platform to WSD in Polish. The current development version of the environment facilitates the construction and evaluation of WSD methods in the supervised Machine Learning ...

In this paper we present an approach for classifying web pages obtained from the Slovenian Internet directory where the web sites covering different topics are organized into a topic ontology. We tested two different methods for representing text documents, both in combination with the linear SVM classification algorithm. The first representation that we have used is a standard bag-of-words app...

Treatment of HER2+ breast cancer with trastuzumab is effective and combination anti-HER2 therapies have demonstrated benefit over monotherapy in the neoadjuvant and metastatic settings. This study investigated the therapeutic potential of targeting the BAG-1 protein co-chaperone in trastuzumab-responsive or -resistant cells. In the METABRIC dataset, BAG-1 mRNA was significantly elevated in HER2...

BACKGROUND BAG-1 (bcl-2 associated athanogene) is a multifunctional protein that protects cells from a wide range of apoptotic stimuli including radiation, hypoxia and chemotherapeutic agents. Overexpression of cytoplasmic BAG-1 has been associated with the increased survival and decreased response to treatment with tamoxifen (TAM) in breast cancer. We attempted to assess the expression of BAG-...

Cucumber seeds were taken to assess the effect of temporal variation on the seed quality. Seeds were stored in three types of containers, such as metal (tin), polythene bag, and cloth bag. The containers were stored at room temperature and ambient relative humidity around three months. Seed quality factors viz., moisture content, germination percentage, vigor index, percentage of abnormal seedl...

English. In this work we obtain sentence embeddings with a recursive model using dependency graphs as network structure, trained with dictionary definitions. We compare the performance of our recursive Tree-LSTMs against other deep learning models: a recurrent version which considers a sequential connection between sentence elements, and a bag of words model which does not consider word orderin...
