Symptomless infection by Rhynchosporium commune in relation to control of barley leaf blotch
(2011)Rhynchosporium leaf blotch (caused by Rhynchosporium commune) is the most economically important disease of barley in the UK, but epidemics can be difficult to control with fungicides and the basis of cultivar resistance ... -
Symptomless infection of Rhynchosporium secalis on leaves of winter barley
(1990-06-30)Areas of leaf blotch lesions were assessed visually on green leaves sampled from a barley crop in March and April. When these leaves were examined further, firstly on a light table and then microscopically after clearing ... -
Synaptic depression enables neuronal gain control
(2009)To act as computational devices, neurons must perform mathematical operations as they transform synaptic and modulatory input into output firing rate. Experiments and theory indicate that neuronal firing typically represents ... -
Synaptic plasticity and pattern recognition in cerebellar Purkinje cells
(Springer Nature, 2014)Many theories of cerebellar learning assume that long-term depression (LTD) of synapses between parallel fibres (PFs) and Purkinje cells is the basis for pattern recognition in the cerebellum. Here we describe a series of ... -
A Synchronisation Facility for a Stream Processing Coordination Language
(2015-08-24)In this thesis we present the AstraKahn project that aims to provide environment for stream processing applications with an automatic resource and concurrency management based on communication demand. At the moment the ... -
Synchronization of inertial memristive neural networks with time-varying delays via static or dynamic event-triggered control
(2020-09-03)This paper investigates the synchronization problem of inertial memristive neural networks (IMNNs) with time-varying delays via event-triggered control (ETC) scheme and state feedback controller for the first time. First, ... -
Synchronization Through Uncorrelated Noise in Excitatory-Inhibitory Networks
(2022-02-04)Gamma rhythms play a major role in many different processes in the brain, such as attention, working memory, and sensory processing. While typically considered detrimental, counterintuitively noise can sometimes have ... -
Synchronizing DDoS Defense at Network Edge with P4, SDN, and Blockchain
(2022-10-24)Botnet-originated DDoS attacks continue to plague the internet and disrupt services for legitimate users. While various proposals have been presented in the last two decades, the botnet still has advantages over the ... -
The synchronous relationship between somatic symptoms and psychological distress in early rheumatoid arthritis : findings from a prospective observational study.
(2012-05)The longitudinal relationship between somatic symptoms and psychological distress in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is often assumed to be strong and bidirectional. However, despite previous research identifying strong ... -
Synchrony : A spiking-based mechanism for processing sensory stimuli
(2012)Synchronous behaviour of neurons is both beneficial and detrimental to the neural code. On the one extreme, synchronous firing activity is well known to be a symptom of epileptic seizures, whilst on the other synchrony ... -
Synchrony and perception in robotic imitation across embodiments
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2003)Social robotics opens up the possibility of individualized social intelligence in member robots of a community, and allows us to harness not only individual learning by the individual robot, but also the acquisition of new ... -
Synchrotron and inverse-Compton emission from radio galaxies with non-uniform magnetic field and electron distributions
(2013-08)I investigate the effect of non-uniform magnetic fields in the extended structures of radio galaxies on the observed synchrotron and inverse-Compton emission. On the assumption of an isotropic field, with a given power ... -
Synergistic Antibacterial Effects of Metallic Nanoparticle Combinations
(2019-11-05)Metallic nanoparticles have unique antimicrobial properties that make them suitable for use within medical and pharmaceutical devices to prevent the spread of infection in healthcare. The use of nanoparticles in healthcare ... -
Synergistic Antifungal Study of PEGylated Graphene Oxides and Copper Nanoparticles against Candida albicans
(2020-04-25)The coupling reactions of polyethylene glycol (PEG) with two different nano-carbonaceous materials, graphene oxide (GO) and expanded graphene oxide (EGO), were achieved by amide bond formations. These reactions yielded ... -
Synergistic effect of hydrotrope and surfactant on solubility and dissolution of atorvastatin calcium : Screening factorial design followed by ratio optimization
(2014-12-17)The present study was aimed at investigating the effect of hydrotrope and surfactant on poor solubility of atorvastatin calcium. Excipients screening followed by factorial design was performed to study effect of excipients ... -
Synergizing AI and HRM: Leveraging Business Analytics for a Future-Ready Workforce
(IGI Global Publishing, 2023-12-29)This chapter explores the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Human Resource Management (HRM) practices within the Asian business landscape. It offers a comprehensive examination of the evolution of AI in HRM, ... -
Synergy of lidar and passive remote sensor data for retrieving profiles of microphysical properties of non-spherical particles
(2018-04-13)In this study we explore how the combination of 3 backscatter and 2 extinction lidar data with data that can be collected with ground-based and space-borne passive remote sensors, e.g. phase function coefficients which can ... -
Syntactic analogies and impossible extensions
(College Publications, 2010)Mathematicians study shapes, structures and patterns. However, there are shapes, structures and patterns within the body and practice of mathematics that are not the direct objects of mathematical study. Rather, they are ... -
Syntactic development in early foreign language learning: Effects of L1 transfer, input and individual factors
(2019-09-01)This study explores parallels and differences in the comprehension of wh-questions and relative clauses between early foreign-language (FL) learners and monolingual children. We test for (a) effects of syntactic first-language ...
