The problem, generic objectness proposal, aims to reduce the candidate windows for object detection tasks. The popular evaluation criterion for related methods is detection-rate/windows-amount(DR-#WIN), where DR is the percentage of groundtruth objects covered by proposal windows. An object is considered “covered” by a window only if the strict PASCAL-overall criterion [3] is satisfied (the int...

A Bing space is a compact Hausdorff space whose every component is a hereditarily indecomposable continuum. We investigate spaces which are quotients of a Bing space by means of a map which is injective on components. We show that the class of such spaces does not include every compact space, but does properly include the class of compact metric spaces. Our entire development is based on Krasin...

Introduction. We report the case of a Bing and Neel syndrome revealed by an isolated left ptosis. Case Report. a 57-year-old man was followed up since October 2003 for a typical Waldenström's macroglobulinemia. A first complete remission was obtained with chlorambucil. In August 2004, he relapsed. A second complete remission was obtained with RFC chemotherapy regimen (rituximab, fludarabine, an...

Bing-Neel syndrome (BNS) is an extremely rare neurologic complication of WM. Herein, we aimed to report a BNS case. A 57 years old women admitted to hospital with fever, weight loss and cough in November 2009. Complete blood count was resulted as hemoglobin 7.4 gr/dl, white blood cell 1.8 × 103/μl, thrombocyte 216 × 103/ μl. Kidney and liver function tests were in normal range. Anemia parameter...

In 1914, the 1-dimensional case of the conjecture was proven in full generality by Caratheodory and Osgood-Taylor using elaborate methods from complex analysis. The 2-dimensional case was studied in the 1920s by Alexander who first circulated a manuscript claiming a proof but soon discovered a counterexample himself, the famous horned sphere. Later Alexander found an extra condition under which...
