visceral leishmaniasis (vl) is a zoonotic disease caused by leishmania species. dogs are considered to be the main reservoir of vl. a number of methods and antigen-based assays are used for the diagnosis of leishmaniasis. however, currently available methods are mainly based on direct examination of tissues for the presence of parasites, which is highly invasive. a variety of serological tests ...

the motivation for this work is to propose a first thorough review of dough rheological models used in numerical applications. although many models have been developed to describe dough rheological characteristics, few of them are employed by researchers in numerical applications. this article reviews them in detail and attempts to provide new insight into the use of dough rheological models.

Around 75% of civilians have experienced at least one traumatic event in their lives, and this number is considerably higher in many parts of the world, as well as in military veterans and first responders. Of those exposed to trauma, 15-25% will develop Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).  PTSD extracts enormous economic, health, and quality of life cost. Thus, it is critical to underst...

Building comprehensive language models using latent semantic analysis (LSA) requires substantial processing power. At the ideal parameters suggested in the literature (for an overview, see Bradford, 2008) it can take up to several hours, or even days, to complete. For linguistic researchers, this extensive processing time is inconvenient but tolerated— but when LSA is deployed in commercial sof...
