In this paper we are investigating the long time behaviour of the solution of a mutation competition model of Lotka-Volterra’s type. Our main motivation comes from the analysis of the Lotka-Volterra’s competition system with mutation which simulates the demo-genetic dynamics of diverse virus in their host : dvi(t) dt = vi [

We demonstrate EKG, a collection of tools and back-end infrastructure for creating custom, domain specific knowledge graphs. The toolkit is geared toward enterprises and government organizations where domain specific knowledge graphs are often not available. During the demo, audience members will be able to ingest their own documents and instantiate their own knowledge graphs and update them in...

We report the discovery of a new X-ray transient AGN, RX J1624.9+7554. This object appeared to be bright in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey, but had turned off in two pointed observations about one and a half years later. The optical identification spectrum shows a non-emission line spectrum of a spiral galaxy at z=0.064. We will discuss several hypotheses that can explain the peculiar behaviour of th...

TweetGenie is an online demo that infers the gender and age of Twitter users based on their tweets. TweetGenie was able to attract thousands of visitors.
