The determination of the Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) is an important variable that contributes to several studies on forest, e.g., environmental monitoring, tree growth, volume of wood, and biomass estimation. This paper presents a preliminary technique for the measurement of tree trunks using terrestrial images collected with a panoramic camera in nadir view. A multi-scale model is generat...

Estimating the rupture process of a quake constrains tectonic setting its source region. In terrestrial seismology, can be described with classical ω2 model. this study, we focus on one key parameter S1222a, corner frequency, to investigate origin. However, estimating frequency S1222a is complicated by S1222a's non-classical spectra which deviate from To explain spectra, take into account site ...

while the «classical insecticides» (ddt: dieldrin, malathion, etc.) mainly affect the adult stage of insects, dimilin belongs to a new group of insecticidal compounds that kills the insect in its larval stages, but has no lethal affect on the adult insect. its empirical formula is c14h9h2~f2cl. diflubenzuron is proposed as common name for the trade name dimilin. studies were made on c. pipiens,...

In his post-war writings, Wittgenstein makes several comments on particularly “fitting” (treffende) words. However, the nature of this quality remains unclear and elusive. paper, I present some suggestions about what one might learn from Wittgenstein’s comments, though my purpose is not primarily exegetical, but rather simply to reflect upon a word “fitting”. discuss options; first that it cont...

Background and purpose: Machine learning is a class of modern and strong tools that can solve many important problems that nowadays humans may be faced with. Support vector regression (SVR) is a way to build a regression model which is an incredible member of the machine learning family. SVR has been proven to be an effective tool in real-value function estimation. As a supervised-learning appr...
