Analyzing data collected in empirical visualization experiments is a time consuming task. In order to support visualization designers analyzing the data collected during such experiments, we intend to develop an analysis model. This analysis model will automatically choose appropriate visual analysis methods according to an analysis task to evaluate a new visualization technique. We will contri...

science, stroke research and industry. The primary objective of the workshop was to exchange views on the topic of stroke and to identify research activities that could potentially result in major advances in the areas of stroke prevention, treatment and recovery. These research priorities should address the most pressing scientific, clinical and industrial needs in the field of stroke. Partici...

This chapter is concerned with the question: how do gravitational waves (GWs) interact with their detectors? It is intended to be a theoretical review of the fundamental concepts involved in interferometric and acoustic (Weber bar) GW antennas. In particular, the type of signal the GW deposits in the detector in each case will be assessed, as well as its intensity and deconvolution. Brief refer...

Karnal bunt disease caused by the fungus Tilletia indica Mitra is a serious concern due to strict quarantines affecting international trade of wheat. We announce here the first draft assembly of two monosporidial lines, PSWKBGH-1 and -2, of this fungus, having approximate sizes of 37.46 and 37.21 Mbp, respectively.

A new generation of physicians and scientists should obtain a copy of Endocrine Therapy of Breast Cancer. The book is a welcome addition to one’s personal library or for purchase by a departmental library. The style and presentation are good with an excellent balance of clinical research and basic science. Although it is not stated, the prospective audience seems to be physicians-in-training, s...

We depict the weight diagrams of basic and adjoint representations of complex simple Lie algebras/algebraic groups and describe some of their uses.

A noteworthy point in the development of the dairy industry is proper record keeping. Record keeping improves a farmer’s decision making significantly, as errors are eradicated and saves the farm’s vital scarce resource, mainly over time. In this paper, a new computerized recording system platform with the name of Individual Cow Recording and Analysis System (ICRAS©) is introduced for the usage...

We present here biophysical models to gain deeper insights into how an acoustic stimulus might influence or modulate neuronal activity. There is clear evidence that neural activity is not only associated with electrical and chemical changes but that an electro-mechanical coupling is also involved. Currently, there is no theory that unifies the electrical, chemical, and mechanical aspects of neu...
