Global Consequences of Land Use
Land use has generally been considered a local environmental issue, but it is becoming a force of global importance. Worldwide changes to forests, farmlands, waterways, and air ...
A survey on Image Data Augmentation for Deep Learning
Abstract Deep convolutional neural networks have performed remarkably well on many Computer Vision tasks. However, these networks are heavily reliant on big data to avoid overfi...
Greengenes, a Chimera-Checked 16S rRNA Gene Database and Workbench Compatible with ARB
ABSTRACT A 16S rRNA gene database ( http://greengenes.lbl.gov ) addresses limitations of public repositories by providing chimera screening, standard alignment, and taxonomic cl...
Applied Longitudinal Data Analysis
Abstract Change is constant in everyday life. Infants crawl and then walk, children learn to read and write, teenagers mature in myriad ways, and the elderly become frail and fo...
A PHOTOMETRIC ADAPTATION OF THE SOMOGYI METHOD FOR THE DETERMINATION OF GLUCOSE
The reliability of the various Somogyi-Shaffer-Hartmann (1, 2) copper reagents for glucose determination in biological material has been established. Adaptation of these reagent...
Efficacy and Safety of the mRNA-1273 SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine
The mRNA-1273 vaccine showed 94.1% efficacy at preventing Covid-19 illness, including severe disease. Aside from transient local and systemic reactions, no safety concerns were ...
Cancer Statistics, 2008
Each year, the American Cancer Society estimates the number of new cancer cases and deaths expected in the United States in the current year and compiles the most recent data on...
Deciding on the Number of Classes in Latent Class Analysis and Growth Mixture Modeling: A Monte Carlo Simulation Study
Abstract Mixture modeling is a widely applied data analysis technique used to identify unobserved heterogeneity in a population. Despite mixture models' usefulness in practice, ...
Tumor Angiogenesis: Therapeutic Implications
THE growth of solid neoplasms is always accompanied by neovascularization. This new capillary growth is even more vigorous and continuous than a similar outgrowth of capillary s...
ITS primers with enhanced specificity for basidiomycetes ‐ application to the identification of mycorrhizae and rusts
Abstract We have designed two taxon‐selective primers for the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region in the nuclear ribosomal repeat unit. These primers, ITS1‐F and ITS4‐B, we...
