XYTRACKER: A NEW APPROACH TO ESTIMATE FAULT RUPTURE EXTENT IN REAL TIME FOR LARGE EARTHQUAKES




A transcontinental challenge--a test of DNA barcode performance for 1,541 species of Canadian Noctuoidea (Lepidoptera).

This study provides a first, comprehensive, diagnostic use of DNA barcodes for the Canadian fauna of noctuoids or "owlet" moths (Lepidoptera: Noctuoidea) based on vouchered records for 1,541 species (99.1% species coverage), and more than 30,000 sequences.When viewed from a Canada-wide perspective, DNA barcodes unambiguously discriminate 90% of Lic

Time-Optimal Path Planning of a Hybrid Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Based on Ocean Current Neural Point Grid

Path planning is the precondition for Hybrid Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (HAUV) to enter the submerged area to undertake a mission.The influence of ocean currents on HAUV should be further investigated to obtain a time-optimal path.The improved A* algorithm and the neural network model are employed in this paper to plan a time-optimal path for t
