The evolutionary history of Mesozoic mammaliaformes is well studied.Although the backbone of their phylogeny is well resolved, the placement of ecologically specialized groups has remained uncertain.Functional and developmental covariation has long been identified as an important source of phylogenetic error, yet combining incongruent ENZYME- FORCE
Object Detection for Underwater Cultural Artifacts Based on Deep Aggregation Network with Deformation Convolution
Cultural artifacts found underwater are located in complex environments with poor imaging conditions.In addition, the artifacts themselves present challenges for automated object detection owing to variations in their shape and texture caused by breakage, stacking, and burial.To solve these problems, this paper proposes an underwater cultural objec
Short-term poverty dynamics of rural households: Evidence from Central Sulawesi, Indonesia
The understanding of poverty dynamics is crucial for the design of appropriate poverty reduction strategies.Taking the case of Central Sulawesi, we investigate the determinants of both chronic and transitory poverty using data from 264 randomly selected households interviewed in 2005 and 2007.Regarding the US 1$/day poverty line, the headcount inde
On the Mechanical Friction Losses Occurring in Automotive Differential Gearboxes
In the automobile industry, the mechanical losses resulting from friction are largely Originals High Rise Wide Leg Crop responsible for various kinds of surface damage, such as the scuffing occurring in some mechanical assemblies.These scuffing processes seem to be due to a local loss of lubrication between certain mechanical elements of the same a
