Savoirs médicinaux interspécifiques et interactions entre cornacs et éléphants dans le district de Thongmyxay au Laos by Jean-Marc Dubost, Eric Deharo, Sysay Palamy, Chithdavone Her, Chiobouaphong Haekovilay, Lamxay Vichith, Sébastien Duffilot, Sabrina Krief

“…The medicinal uses they make of some of these plants in their households are more consistent with their observations of these elephant behaviours than it is with the use of the same items by local healers, suggesting a transfer of medicinal knowledge from elephants to mahouts.Since some of the village elephants in Thongmyxay are still periodically released and come into contact with their wild counterparts, the domestication space forms an interface between humans, wild elephants and the forest, and we discuss conversely the possibility of knowledge transfer from mahouts to village elephants through the ethnoveterinary care they receive.This knowledge which is precious for the health and well-being of people and elephants in Laos is threatened by the reduction of the forest cover sheltering the resources used, and by the relocation of village elephants to tourist centres. …”

Control System of Fire Rescue Robot for High-Rise Building Design by Junfang Yu

“…Robot fire detection method involves obtaining the video image of the fire detection area through a high-definition camera, performing image preprocessing on the current frame image of the video in the robot operating system to obtain the image; and performing the flame area segmentation based on the Ohta color space and the Otsu threshold segmentation algorithm on the image, to obtain the segmented image; through the interframe difference method, the preprocessed image of the previous frame is subtracted from the current frame image and the moving area of the image is segmented to obtain the segmented image; the obtained segmented image is combined with the segmented image in the robot operating system and images are intersected to obtain a segmented image with the characteristics of flame motion; based on other characteristics of the flame, flame recognition is performed on the area in the segmented image. …”

Organizational features of operational service of lines by criminal police units by S. A. Chyzh

“…The article considers the existing scientific approaches to the definition of “operational service”, which allowed to formulate the author's position on the definition of “operational service of criminal police units of work lines” as a balanced organizational and managerial model of criminal police units on a particular line of work, which means the following: 1) operative overlapping of objects of operative attention by representatives of the agency network; 2) conducting control and supervision proceedings for the purpose of control, monitoring, analysis, assessment and forecasting of the operational situation along the line of work; 3) search and recording of factual data on illegal activities of individuals and groups; 4) use the possibilities of criminal analysis in order to create a single security space in all spheres and sectors of the economy and ensure an effective system of operational and investigative counteraction to criminal offenses that encroach on the functioning of the state economy. …”
