Which Medievalism? The Case of Ford Madox Brown by Laurent Bury

“…Close to the Pre-Raphaelites but never a member of the Brotherhood, Ford Madox Brown (1821–1893) remained faithful to their “medieval ideal for a much longer period than any of the actual Brothers. His long career allowed him to change styles several times, and also to modify his approach of medievalism. …”

Evaluation the efficiency of using Artificial Neural Networks in predicting meteorological droughts in north-west of Iran by Arash malekian, mahro dehbozorgi, Amir hoshang ehsani

“…The input data was annual rainfall data and annual drought precipitation index for all stations that 80% of the data (1971-2000) used for training the network and other 20% (2001-2007) used for testing it and in the next step drought severity predicted for the years 2008 to 2012 by the trained algorithm without using actual and existed data in this period. The appropriate structure for the network, based on Multi Layer Perceptron with three hidden layer, Back Propagation algorithm, Sigmoid transfer function and 10 neurons in middle layer. …”

Prevalence of taurodontism: meta-analysis in recent humans and evolutionary perspectives by Pierre-Hadrien Decaup, Christine Couture, Mathieu Colin, Elsa Garot

“…Exploring and refining epidemiology of taurodontism in actual populations could strengthen the hypothesis of a selective advantage for a high attrition diet (as heavy tooth wear in Homo sapiens evolution changed little until recently) or favour pleiotropic or genetic drift effects to explain the high frequency of the trait in Neandertal remains. …”

Temporal and Spatial Evolution Features of Precipitable Water in China during a Recent 65-Year Period (1951–2015) by Hao Wang, Jianxin He

“…This study utilized the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) and Climate Prediction Center Merged Analysis of Precipitation (CMAP) reanalysis data to probe the temporal and spatial distribution features of atmospheric precipitable water (PW) in China during a recent 65-year period (1951–2015), and the relationship between PW and actual precipitation was also studied. The temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of PW in China presented an overall decreasing spatial trend from the southeast to northwest direction. …”

Retropharyngeal Calcific Tendonitis Mimics a Retropharyngeal Abscess by Natasha Pollak, Sonya Wexler

“…Although calcific tendonitis at other sites has been well described in the medical literature, it appears that this entity has been underreported in the otolaryngology literature where only a few case reports have been identified. Presumably, the actual incidence is higher than the reported incidence, due to lack of familiarity with this disorder. …”

Drilling Parameter Optimization of Shale Gas Wells Based on Saw-Tooth Genetic Algorithm to Reduce Drilling Costs by Kai Bai, Abing Dong, Ce Zhan, WanXing Zhang, BingRui Tu

“…To solve the problem, the algorithm proposes a variable population size with periodic reinitialization, which follows a saw-tooth scheme with unequal amplitude and change period (saw-tooth GA), which can optimize the drilling parameters under constraints. According to the actual situation of the wells in the Fuling region, the three algorithms are compared for the vertical section’s drilling parameters. …”
