The paper is proposing a method for evaluating the Hausdorff-Besicovitch dimension of natural coastlines from satellite images. A fractal dimension is a statistical index which is describing the complexity of a given pattern embedded in given spatial dimensions. In particular, this index is providing a measure of the capacity the considered fractal pattern has to fill the space in which it is e...

Recently, tilapia have become increasingly important in aquaculture and fisheries worldwide. They are one of the major protein sources in many African countries and are helping to combat malnutrition. Therefore, maintenance and conservation genetics of wild populations of tilapia are of great significance. In this study, we report the population genetic structure and genetic diversity of the re...

A single unicast index coding problem (SUICP) with symmetric neighboring interference (SNI) has equal number of K messages and K receivers, the kth receiver Rk wanting the kth message xk and having the side-information Kk = (Ik∪xk) , where Ik = {xk−U , . . . , xk−2, xk−1}∪{xk+1, xk+2, . . . , xk+D} is the interference with D messages after and U messages before its desired message.
