Data augmentation is a common technique to improve the generalization performance of models for image classification. Although methods such as Mixup and CutMix that mix images randomly are indeed instrumental in general classification, swapping or masking regions not friendly fine-grained since key classification precisely lies discriminative informative regions, it unreasonable generate labels...

In the present work we present an overview of experimental findings corroborating olfactory imagery observations with the visual and auditory modalities. Overall, the results indicate that imagery of olfactory information share many features with those observed in the primary senses although some major differences are evident. One such difference pertains to the considerable individual differen...

Objectives and Prior Work The relationship between self-efficacy and entrepreneurial intentions, opportunity recognition and career persistence is well established in the entrepreneurship literature. In addition to being a predictor of entrepreneurial behaviour, an individual's level of entrepreneurial self-efficacy (ESE) has repeatedly been shown to have a lasting legacy on venture growth and ...

Symbioses in marine sponges involve diverse consortia of microorganisms that contribute to the health and ecology of their hosts. The microbial communities of 13 taxonomically diverse Great Barrier Reef (GBR) sponge species were assessed by DGGE and 16S rRNA gene sequencing to determine intra and inter species variation in bacterial symbiont composition. Microbial profiling revealed communities...
