East Antarctic Ice Sheet variability in the central Transantarctic Mountains since the mid Miocene by G. R. M. Bromley, G. R. M. Bromley, G. Balco, G. Balco, M. S. Jackson, A. Balter-Kennedy, A. Balter-Kennedy, H. Thomas

“…In contrast, an apparent hiatus in moraine deposition both at Otway Massif and the neighbouring Roberts Massif suggests that the ice sheet surface in the central TAM was potentially lower than present during the late Miocene and earliest Pliocene.…”

Genome wide identification of MATE and ALMT gene family in lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) and expression profiling under Al stress condition by Ankita Tripathi, Dharmendra Singh, Jyotika Bhati, Deepti Singh, Jyoti Taunk, Jawaher Alkahtani, Abdulrahman Al-Hashimi, Madan Pal Singh

“…Predicted 3D (three-dimensional) structure and molecular docking revealed that 5 LcMATE proteins could bind citrate and contain amino acids related to its secretion via citrate exuding motif and other neighbouring sites. Expression analyses of LcMATE and LcALMT genes were performed using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). …”

The impact of spray-induced gene silencing on cereal phyllosphere microbiota by Poorva Sundararajan, Samrat Ghosh, Bekele Gelena Kelbessa, Stephen C. Whisson, Mukesh Dubey, Aakash Chawade, Ramesh Raju Vetukuri

“…Analyses of fungal co-occurrence patterns also showed that F. graminearum established itself among the fungal communities through negative interactions with neighbouring fungi. Through these analyses, we have also found bacterial and fungal genera ubiquitous in the phyllosphere, irrespective of dsRNA treatment. …”

Visit of the Soviet Union journalists' delegation to Finland and the Baltic countries in 1937: the report of the leader of the delegation, Boris Michailov, to Stalin and Molotov by Zenonas Butkus, Magnus llmjärv

“…An attempt was made to show that the ongoing repressions did not hinder its active foreign policy, and did not prevent it from having close relations with the neighbouring countries. This visit, to a certain extent, could also have been a demonstration against Germany - an attempt was made to make it understand that the Soviets were influential in the Baltic region, and therefore, the expansionary politics had to be done in coordination with them. …”

Comparison of conditioning factor classification criteria in large-scale statistically based landslide susceptibility models by M. Sinčić, S. Bernat Gazibara, M. Rossi, S. Mihalić Arbanas

“…Therefore, the paper focuses on the crucial step of classifying continuous landslide conditioning factors for susceptibility modelling by presenting an innovative comprehensive analysis that resulted in 54 landslide susceptibility models to test 11 classification criteria (scenarios which vary from stretched values, partially stretched classes, heuristic approach, classification based on studentized contrast and landslide presence, and commonly used classification criteria, such as natural neighbour, quantiles and geometrical intervals) in combination with 5 statistical methods. …”

Genesis of feudalism in Western Europe and its influence to the globai process of history: The conceptions of L. Vasilyev and E. Gudavičius by Nerijus Babinskas

“…In the early Middle Ages, a necessary condition of the feudalisation of the periphery of Western Europe was the influence of the neighbouring (already feudal) countries. Otherwise, the social structure of peripheral societies would have been developing like in the Orient.   …”

Revisiting ‘revisiting supervised methods for effort‐aware cross‐project defect prediction’ by Fuyang Li, Peixin Yang, Jacky Wai Keung, Wenhua Hu, Haoyu Luo, Xiao Yu

“…The results show that (1) The classification before sorting (CBS+) defect density calculation strategy achieves the best overall performance. (2) Using balanced distribution adaption (BDA) and joint distribution adaptation (JDA) with the K‐nearest neighbour classifier to build the EACPDP model can find 15% and 14.3% more defective modules and 11.6% and 8.9% more defects while achieving the acceptable initial false alarms (IFA). (3) Better comprehensive classification performance of the methods can bring better EACPDP performance to some extent. (4) A flexible adjustment of the defect threshold λ of the CBS+ strategy contribute to different goals. …”

Multimodal machine learning for analysing multifactorial causes of disease—The case of childhood overweight and obesity in Mexico by Rosario Silva Sepulveda, Magnus Boman, Magnus Boman

“…The supervised pipeline employed four methods: Linear classifier with Elastic Net regularisation, k-Nearest Neighbour, Decision Tree, and Random Forest. The unsupervised pipeline used traditional methods with k-Means and hierarchical clustering, with the optimal number of clusters calculated to be k = 2.ResultsThe decision tree classifier in the supervised early fusion approach produced the best quantitative results. …”

Downsystem grain-size trends and mass balance of an ancient wave-influenced sediment routing system: Middle Jurassic Brent Delta, northern North Sea, offshore UK and Norway by Ikenna C. Okwara, Gary J. Hampson, Alexander C. Whittaker, Gareth G. Roberts

“…This third type of deviation reveals that spatial facies partitioning due to shallow-marine process regime distorts the simple downsystem-fining reference trend, and supports the interpretation that large volumes of predominantly muddy sediment were bypassed beyond the ‘Brent Delta’ into neighbouring basins. Our analysis demonstrates a practical approach to interpret sediment supply and sediment dispersal in the stratigraphic record. …”
