Population density models used to describe the evolution of neural populations in a phase space are closely related to the single neuron model that describes the individual trajectories of the neurons of the population and which gives in particular the phase-space where the computations are made. Based on a transformation of the quadratic integrate and fire single neuron model, the so called th...

Browser Extensions (often called plugins or addons) are small pieces of code that let developers add additional functionality to the browser. However, with extensions comes a security price: the user must trust the developer. We look at ways in which this trust can be broken and malicious extensions installed. We also look at silent installations of plugins in various browsers and work on ways ...

The Twisted Gastrulation (TSG) protein is one of five secreted proteins required to pattern the dorsal part of the early Drosophila embryo. Unlike the Decapentaplegic (DPP) protein that is required to pattern the entire dorsal half of the embryo, TSG is needed only to specify the fate of the dorsal midline cells. Here we have misexpressed the tsg gene with different promoters to address its mec...

Internet users are more likely to ignore Internet content verification and more likely to share the content. When it comes to Islamic content, it is crucial to share and spread fake or inaccurate content. Even if the verification process of Islamic content is becoming easier every day, the Internet users generally ignore the verification step and jump into sharing the content. “How many clicks ...

nowadays, more attention is being paid to customers’ satisfaction as funding decisions are made. extension organization, which plays an important role in educating farmers, must know how far the learners are satisfied with its educational program. accordingly, this study was conducted in yazd province (iran) with the main objective of investigating the pomegranate growers’ satisfaction with the...

Let X be a connected normal Stein space of pure dimension d ≥ 2 with isolated singularities only. By solving a weighted ∂-equation with compact support on a desingularization of X , we derive Hartogs’ Extension Theorem on X by the ∂-idea due to Ehrenpreis.

Motivated by a result and a question by E. M. Chirka we consider the Hartogs’ extension property for some connected sets in C2 of the form K = Σ ∪ (∂Δ × Δ), where Σ is a possibly nonconnected compact subset of Δ×Δ ⊂ C2.

In this paper, we essentially deal with Köthe-Toeplitz duals of fuzzy level sets defined using a partial metric. Since the utilization of Zadeh's extension principle is quite difficult in practice, we prefer the idea of level sets in order to construct some classical notions. In this paper, we present the sets of bounded, convergent, and null series and the set of sequences of bounded variation...

the study was carried out among potato farmers in ardabil plain, to investigate their attitude towards sustainable agricultural practices. it was comprised of a stratified sample of 140 farmers from two townships (ardabil and naming) who were operating in 24000 hectares of potato farms. descriptive survey research was employed in the study. data were gathered using a questionnaire and through i...
