Exposure to environmental noise is related negative health effects. To prevent it, the city councils develop maps and action plans identify, quantify, decrease pollution. Smart cities are deploying wireless acoustic sensor networks that continuously gather sound pressure level from many locations using acoustics nodes. These nodes provide very relevant updated information, both temporally spati...

Domains of unknown function (DUFs) are a large set of uncharacterized protein families that are found in the Pfam database. Here, the scale and growth of functionally uncharacterized families in biological databases are surveyed and the prospects for discovering their function are examined. In particular, the important role that structural genomics can play in identifying potential function is ...

Current efforts to identify antibodies that are biomarkers of disease rely on knowing the antigens they target. In many diseases, however, the relevant antigens are unknown. Reddy et al. (2010) now present an approach for discovering antibody biomarkers that avoids the need for antigen identification.

National Resilience esource Center © What works in prevention? This is the critical question substance abuse prevention programs face. Such inquiry invites new research agendas and leads to effective prevention programs. Working together, researchers and practitioners are discovering the answers.

The explosive growth of spatial data and widespread use of spatial databases emphasize the need for the automated discovery of spatial knowledge. Spatial data mining is the process of discovering interesting and previously unknown, but potentially useful patterns from spatial databases. The complexity of spatial data and intrinsic spatial relationships limits the usefulness of conventional data...
