In this paper we describe the guideline of Daphne, a parallel simulator for supervised recurrent neural networks trained by Backpropagation through time. The simulator has a modular structure, based on a parallel training kernel running on the CM-2 Connection Machine. The training kernel is written in CM Fortran in order to exploit some advantages of the slicewise execution model. The other mod...

Title: Antioxidant genotoxic and antigenotoxic activity of Daphne gnidium leaf extracts Authors: Fadwa Chaabane FC ([email protected]) Jihed Boubaker JB ([email protected]) Methods As asked by reviewer 1:-We have listed the different concentrations used for each sample in each method in the corresponding section method.-We indicated the room temperature.-We indicated to how many hours this c...

Physiological factors have effects on most forest parameters such as forest classification so that understanding knowledge about this subject is important to manage forests. The forests of Sorkhake-sanjabi village with area of 1645 ha located in Eslam Abad city, Kermanshah province, Iran were selected. 23 sample plots with rectangular shape (40m*50m) were selected and the species, origin of spe...

Pedigree analysis is a useful tool in the study of speciation. It can reveal trans-generational influences on the choice of mates. We examined mating patterns in a population of Darwin's medium ground finches (Geospiza fortis) on Daphne Major Island to improve our understanding of how a barrier to the exchange of genes between populations arises in evolution. Body sizes of mates were weakly cor...

Recent phylogenetic analyses of sexual reproductive systems supported the evolutionary pathway from hermaphroditism to dioecy via gynodioecy in different groups of angiosperms. In this study, we explore the evolution of sexual reproductive systems in Daphne laureola L. (Thymelaeaceae), a species with variation in reproductive system among population. Sequences from the ITS region of the nuclear...
