Multi-group target tracking method based on adaptive predictive clustering in WSN by Shumu LIU, Jian YANG, Yuansong LI

“…Aiming at the imbalance between energy using and tracking accuracy in multi-sensor target tracking,a method of trade-off network lifetime and accuracy was proposed.It was a multi-group target tracking method based on adaptive predictive clustering (APCMT),realizing the simultaneous tracking of multiple groups.Firstly,cluster was realized,which was to capture the changes of group behavior attributes,such as forming,mergering and spliting.Then,sensors were selected,which were expected to contribute to the group area sensor activation,and the sensors were used for group tracking.Scene simulation was in a square area of 1 000 m ×1 000 m with 500 randomly deployed sensors.The effectiveness of the proposed method was verified by the simulation results.Compared with Kalman,energy-effective node selection (EENS) method and the improved dynamic cluster (IDC) method,the tracking precision of proposed method was higher.And because of the number of activate sensors was less,the computational time was less,the network lifetime had been improved significantly.…”

Perfluorooctanoic acid induces abnormal heart development via aryl hydrocarbon receptor-mediated oxidative stress and apoptosis in zebrafish larvae by Xueyi CHEN, Tianchi MA, Kang WANG, Tao CHEN, Yan JIANG

“…Moreover, PFOA at 1000 μg·L−1 caused an increase in the cleaved-caspase 3 immunofluorescence signal (P<0.05) as well as overexpression of the apoptosis-associated gene p53 (P<0.001).which were attenuated by the CH supplementation. ConclusionPFOA triggers oxidative stress and apoptosis via AHR activation in the heart of zebrafish larvae, resulting in cardiac defects.…”

Le Musée européen des copies de Charles Blanc comme « pendant » du Louvre by Elisa Rodríguez Castresana

“…Charles Blanc conceived it as an institution that was to be attached to the Musée du Louvre. The relationship between the two institutions was profound and touched upon not only the constitution of the collection, but also the appropriation of the model of the room of masterpieces established in the Louvre by Philippe-Auguste Jeanron in 1851 at the Salon carré, and the recuperation of the system of emulation between ancient and modern painter that existed at the Louvre until 1848 when the Salon des artistes vivants was definitively evited from the Parisian museum.…”
