This is the first report on the world that Pseudomonas psychrophila is a new etiological agent of disease in fish. A disease case occurred during the fall of 2017 in a rainbow trout farm in the north of Iran (Guilan province). Anorexia, lethargy and mortalities of 10% fish per week were observed in rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss weighting 45-107g in three fresh water ponds of a farm on the n...

This study investigates the relative weighting of morphosyntactic and visual cues in spoken-language comprehension, whether this varies systematically within between first (L1) second language (L2) speakers German. In two experiments, 45 L1 39 L2 answered probe questions targeting action direction subject- object-extracted clauses, which were presented either isolation (Experiment 1) or alongsi...

This paper aims to solve a distributed resource allocation problem with binary local constraints. The is formulated as program cost function defined by the summation of agent costs plus global mismatch/penalty term. We propose modification Hopfield Neural Network (HNN) dynamics in order this while incorporating novel Newton-like weighting factor. addition lends itself fast avoidance saddle poin...

A visualization principle for MR-guided vascular interventions based on the concerted use of two contrast agents is introduced. The first contrast agent, consisting of small paramagnetic iron oxide particles, was administered intravenously to shorten T(1), and even more so T *(2), of the blood for extended time periods. The second agent, a monomeric gadolinium complex, was added to a solution i...

One way to design a local search algorithm that is effective on many types of instances is allowing this algorithm to switch among heuristics. In this paper, we refer to the way in which non-weighting algorithm adaptGWSAT+ selects a variable to flip, as heuristic adaptGWSAT+, the way in which clause weighting algorithm RSAPS selects a variable to flip, as heuristic RSAPS, and the way in which v...

In this paper, we investigate state consensus problems for discrete-time multi-agent systems with changing communications topologies and bounded time-varying communication delays. The analysis in this paper is based on the properties of non-negative matrices. We first extend the model of networks of dynamic agents to the case with multiple time-delays and prove that if the communication topolog...

I apply a prospect theory model of risk preferences with an endogenously determined reference point to propose an alternative objective of maximizing expected outcome rather than maximizing expected utility. I show that an agent can always form a consistent expected outcome for any binary gamble and derive a parametric formula, which can then be used to examine the effects of loss aversion, ris...
