The Role Of Time Delays, Slow Processes And Chaos In Modulating The Cell-Cycle Clock by E.V. Presnov, Z. Agur

“…Following the loss of stability of the double cycle, through a period-doubling bifurcation, another limit set—a strange attractor—is born. The complicated geometry of this strange attractor can be viewed as an unlimited reservoir of periods in the phase space.We hypothesize that the existence of such a reservoir is advantageous in morphogenetic tissues, such as the bone marrow, as it enables time- and site-specific selection of the optimal cell-cycle period for any specific micro- environment. …”

RFID Localization Using Angle of Arrival Cluster Forming by Waleed Alsalih, Abdallah Alma'aitah, Wadha Alkhater

“…However, our experiments show that there are many factors that influence the RSSI value substantially and that, in turn, has a negative effect on the accuracy of the estimated distance. Another approach that has been recently proposed is utilizing transmission power control from the reader side. …”

Impinging Performance of High-Pressure Water Jets Emitting from Different Nozzle Orifice Shapes by Fei Huang, Jianyu Mi, Dan Li, Rongrong Wang

“…Although the stagnation pressure in this paper is not sufficiently obvious, the peak pressures of the five water jet shapes are much different from one another. Under the same inlet pressure, the peak pressure of the circular water jet is the largest, and those of the square, triangular, cross-shaped, and elliptical water jets decrease in turn. …”

Unimodal‐Bio‐GAN: Keyless biometric salting scheme based on generative adversarial network by Mayada Tarek, Eslam Hamouda, Sara El‐Metwally

“…Abstract Cancellable biometrics enabled us to develop robust authentication systems by replacing the storage of the original biometric template with another secured version. A technique called biometric salting uses a parameter (key) and an invertible function to transform the human biometrics features into a secured format that can be protected and stored securely in a biometric database system. …”

Study of social network interference of memory processes in adolescence by V. E. Baryshnikova, V. B. Nikishina, E. A. Petrash, V. A. Sotnikov, E. I. Kulikova

“…Under the influence of the interfering factor of social networks, adolescents faced difficulties in linking individual elements of stimuli with each other – they connected elements of one video with elements of another. According to one of the provisions of the theory of interference, information storage is characterized by the “unbinding” of representations of objects, followed by their reverse linking in an arbitrary combination during further reproduction.…”

Virulence changes in Vibrio parahaemolyticus during the freezing of Penaeus chinensis by Zenghui Gao, Heer Ding, Ke Li, Qiang Zhang, Xubo Zhao, Liu Bin, Tianli Yue

“…By SYTO9 and PI staining showed that washing was the main reason for the bacterial reduction at the drain phase, while the strain entering VBNC state was another reason at sprinkling phase. Their hemolysis toxicity, produced by TDH and TRH, became stronger after inoculation on shrimp, and could be detected throughout the process. …”

What Should a Political Scientist Know About Religion? by Piotr Mazurkiewicz

“…The first question that needs to be answered in order to talk reasonably about the borderland between religion and politics is the issue of what religion is, and how historical religions essentially differ from one another. One may then study, for example, the political effectiveness of religious motivation. …”
