Oleander poisoning in cattle by Ozgur Ozdemir, M. Kemal Ciftci, Mehmet Maden

“…In histopathological examination, edema, hyperemia and occasional hemorrhage with degeneration and necrosis in myocytes and neurons in heart and brain were detected. Based on the pathological findings, observations of oleander leaves in the feeders and deaths after the oleander trees were cut down have verified the diagnosis of oleander poisoning in these cattle.…”

Efficient Neural Network Modeling for Flight and Space Dynamics Simulation by Ayman Hamdy Kassem

“…The technique will free the neural network designer from guessing the size and structure for the required neural network model and will help to minimize the number of neurons. For linear flight/space dynamics systems, the technique can find the network weights and biases directly by solving a system of linear equations without the need for training. …”
