The semi-wild mariculture of Caribbean King Crab (Maguimithrax spinosissimus) for coral reef restoration by Samantha Glover, Mark J. Butler, IV

“…Laboratory-based aquaculture of some reef herbivores is possible but labor-intensive and insufficient to supply the numbers needed for large-scale restoration. We examined whether this bottleneck could be alleviated by the semi-wild mariculture of the Caribbean King Crab (MaguiMithrax spinosissimus)in saltwater quarries for subsequent use in coral reef restoration in the Florida Keys, Florida (USA).We surveyed the physico-chemical characteristics of 16 saltwater quarries in the Florida Keys relative to conditions in the wild and, in four quarries where crabs occurred, we examined crab population dynamics in comparison to that in the wild. …”

A GIS based spatiotemporal modelling approach for cycling risk mapping using crowd-sourced sensor data by Bakhtiar Feizizadeh, Davoud Omarzadeh

“…The proposed approach makes use of crowd-sourced sensor data collected during cycling (speed, bike vibration, distance to other objects), spatial statistics and multi-criteria decision analysis to provide a continuous estimation of cycling discomfort and risk in the traffic network. We employed cycling traffic volume and route discomfort estimation techniques to determine the spatiotemporal patterns of cycling traffic volume and discomfort levels. …”

A novel paradigm for fast training data generation in asynchronous movement-based BCIs by Markus R. Crell, Kyriaki Kostoglou, Kathrin Sterk, Gernot R. Müller-Putz, Gernot R. Müller-Putz

“…Such paradigms tend to introduce long delays between trials, thereby extending training times. To address this, we propose a novel experimental paradigm that enables the collection of 300 cued movement trials in 18 min.MethodsBy obtaining measurements from ten participants, we demonstrate that the data produced by this paradigm exhibits characteristics similar to those observed during self-paced movement.Results and discussionWe also show that classifiers trained on this data can be used to accurately detect executed movements with an average true positive rate of 31.8% at a maximum rate of 1.0 false positives per minute.…”
