Background: Cryptosporidiosis is a zoonotic disease with public health importance, especially for individuals with weak immune system, such as children, elderly people and immune suppressed ones. Evaluation of the prevalence of Cryptosporidium in wild rodents such as wild brown rats could help to establish an epidemiological map of Cryptosporidiosis. The aim of the current study was to assess t...

[1] Brown carbon is a ubiquitous and unidentified component of organic aerosol which has recently come into the forefront of atmospheric research. This component is strongly linked to the class of humic-like substances (HULIS) in aerosol whose ultimate origin is still being debated. Using a simplified spectroscopic method the concentrations of brown carbon have been determined in aqueous extrac...

As outflow activity in low mass protostars is strongly connected to accretion it is reasonable to expect accreting brown dwarfs to also be driving outflows. In the last three years we have searched for brown dwarf outflows using high quality optical spectra obtained with UVES on the VLT and the technique of spectro-astrometry. To date five brown dwarf outflows have been discovered. Here the met...

Brown clusters enable POS taggers to generalize better to words that did not occur in the labeled data, clustering distributionally similar seen and unseen words, thereby making models more robust to sparsity effects and domain shifts. However, Brown clustering is a transductive clustering method, and OOV effects still arise. Words neither in the labeled data nor in the unlabeled data cannot be...

feijoa as a fruit crop and ornamental tree is cultivated in the subtropics and warm temperate areas of the world including brazil, united states, new zealand and japan. a new disease with brown rot symptom on fruit occurred in feijoa orchards of northern iran in which it has become popular as a fruit crop. the objective of the present study was isolation and identification of the causal pathoge...

A novel texture detecting analysis for medical pathological tissue images was developed by fractal Brown model. According to fractal Brown random field model, a discrete fractal random field for image texture detection on a definite scale could be derived from the Brown model. Using fractal dimensions in partial region of the image and gray difference between adjacent pixels and relevant Hurst ...
