DEEP-SEA ORDOVICIAN LINGULIDE BRACHIOPODS AND THEIR ASSOCIATED BURROWS SUGGEST AN EARLY COLONIZATION OF PROXIMAL TURBIDITE SYSTEMS

Deep-sea Ordovician lingulide brachiopods and their associated burrows suggest an early colonization of proximal turbidite systems

Abstract Trace fossils from Ordovician deep-marine environments are typically produced by a shallow endobenthos adapted to live under conditions of food scarcity by Facial Cleansers means of specialized grazing, farming, and trapping strategies, preserved in low-energy intermediate to distal zones of turbidite systems.High-energy proximal zones hav

ESTIMATED EXPOSURE OF SPINE SURGEONS TO RADIATION

ABSTRACT Objective To estimate the amount of radiation received and accumulated in the bodies of two surgeons, one being the responsible surgeon and the other the assistant, performing spine surgery procedures over a period of 25 years.Methods Seventy-two spinal surgeries were performed during a seven-month period and the radiation loads were measu

GMM-IL: Image Classification Using Incrementally Learnt, Independent Probabilistic Models for Small Sample Sizes

When deep-learning classifiers try to learn new classes through supervised learning, they exhibit catastrophic forgetting issues.In this paper we propose the Gaussian Mixture Model - Incremental Learner (GMM-IL), a novel two-stage architecture that couples unsupervised visual feature learning with supervised probabilistic models to represent each c
