Blending World Map Projections
The idea of designing a new map projection via combination of two projections is well established. Some of the most popular world map projections in use today were devised in this manner. One construction method is to combine two source projections along a common parallel (for example, Goode’s homolosine combines the sinusoidal and the Mollweide projections). A second method calculates the arit...
متن کاملFra-1 replaces c-Fos-dependent functions in mice.
Structure-function analysis as well as studies with knock-out and transgenic mice have assigned distinct functions to c-Fos and Fra-1, two components of the transcription factor AP-1 (activator protein-1). To test whether Fra-1 could substitute for c-Fos, we generated knock-in mice that express Fra-1 in place of c-Fos. Fra-1 rescues c-Fos-dependent functions such as bone development and light-i...
متن کاملFunctional Map of the World
We present a new dataset, Functional Map of the World (fMoW), which aims to inspire the development of machine learning models capable of predicting the functional purpose of buildings and land use from temporal sequences of satellite images and a rich set of metadata features. The metadata provided with each image enables reasoning about location, time, sun angles, physical sizes, and other fe...
متن کاملNutrition: the new world map.
The map of nutrition, evident in the structure of any course or textbook, derives from theses that framed a science begun in the 1840s, developed until the 1940s, and consolidated until now. Nutritionists now are as perplexed as the explorers of half a millennium ago, who continued to use maps that did not fit the wider world they found. Until the 1600s, alternatives to Ptolemaic cosmology rema...
متن کاملQuantum covariant c-map
We generalize the results of hep-th/0701214 about the covariant c-map to include the perturbative quantum corrections. We also perform explicitly the superconformal quotient from the hyperkähler cone obtained by the quantum c-map to the quaternion-Kähler space, which is the moduli space of hypermultiplets. As a result, the perturbatively corrected metric on the moduli space is found in a simpli...
