Accurately calculating the vehicle load acting on a bridge at any one time is crucial to determining the integrity and safety of the bridge.To ensure this integrity and safety, information on the types, characteristics, and load of vehicles that regularly cross the bridge is very important in terms of its structural adequacy and maintenance.In this
The sensitivity of strains of microorganisms isolated from bioptates of atherosclerotic plaques to different antimicrobials was studied.For this study, the samples of atherosclerotic plaques from a group of patients that underwent elective Stencil Transfer carotid endarterectomy were used.Among 137 strains of coagulase-negative staphylococci 13.1 %
The promise of association genetics to identify genes or genomic regions controlling complex traits has generated a flurry of interest.Such phenotype-genotype associations could be useful to accelerate tree breeding cycles, increase precision and selection intensity for late expressing, low heritability traits.However, the prospects of association
This paper focuses on the efficiency of target-company investment decisions before and after Merger & Acquisition deals.We study whether M&A deals help to solve the problem of Smell Proof Carbon Bag suboptimal investment after the acquisition.Using a sample of 145 target companies from BRICS countries that were acquired during the period 2004-2014,
The effectiveness of any Machine Learning process depends on the accuracy of annotated data that is used to train a learner.However, manual annotation is expensive.Hence, researchers adopt a semi-supervised approach called active learning that aims to achieve state-of-the-art performance using minimal number of samples.Although it boosts classifier
