Poisoning attack is identified as a severe security threat to machine learning algorithms. In many applications, for example, deep neural network (DNN) models collect public data as the inputs to perform re-training, where the input data can be poisoned. Although poisoning attack against support vector machines (SVM) has been extensively studied before, there is still very limited knowledge abo...

OBJECTIVE To describe the characteristics of acute intoxications in two University Hospitals of Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso). METHODS All cases admitted to the emergency services of the two sole University Hospitals of Ouagadougou fro...

Perverted appetite as a contributory cause of poisoning has previously excited comment but largely in connexion with poisoning by lead (Burrows, Rendle-Short and Hanna, 1951). Evidence of pica appears, usually without comment, in the cases of other poisoned children. For example, Davis and Hunt (1949) were unable to carry out successful gastric lavage on a child poisoned by an antihistamine as ...
