Diversity in Tropical Rain Forests and Coral Reefs
The commonly observed high diversity of trees in tropical rain forests and corals on tropical reefs is a nonequilibrium state which, if not disturbed further, will progress towa...
Wastewater engineering : treatment and reuse
1. Wastewater Engineering: An Overview 2. Constituents in Wastewater 3. Analysis and Selection of Wastewater Flowrates and Constituent Loadings 4. Introduction to Process Analys...
Matching pursuits with time-frequency dictionaries
The authors introduce an algorithm, called matching pursuit, that decomposes any signal into a linear expansion of waveforms that are selected from a redundant dictionary of fun...
The Fluid Mosaic Model of the Structure of Cell Membranes
A fluid mosaic model is presented for the gross organization and structure of the proteins and lipids of biological membranes. The model is consistent with the restrictions impo...
Deep Learning
Deep learning is a form of machine learning that enables computers to learn from experience and understand the world in terms of a hierarchy of concepts. Because the computer ga...
Improved tangent estimate in the nudged elastic band method for finding minimum energy paths and saddle points
An improved way of estimating the local tangent in the nudged elastic band method for finding minimum energy paths is presented. In systems where the force along the minimum ene...
Learning from Imbalanced Data
With the continuous expansion of data availability in many large-scale, complex, and networked systems, such as surveillance, security, Internet, and finance, it becomes critica...

Novel methods improve prediction of species’ distributions from occurrence data
Prediction of species’ distributions is central to diverse applications in ecology, evolution and conservation science. There is increasing electronic access to vast sets of occ...
Analysis of Gene Diversity in Subdivided Populations
A method is presented by which the gene diversity (heterozygosity) of a subdivided population can be analyzed into its components, i.e., the gene diversities within and between ...
Human Domination of Earth's Ecosystems
Human alteration of Earth is substantial and growing. Between one-third and one-half of the land surface has been transformed by human action; the carbon dioxide concentration i...
