Rapid sorting of radio galaxy morphology using Haralick features
(2021-02-01)
We demonstrate the use of Haralick features for the automated classification of radio galaxies. The set of thirteen Haralick features represent an extremely compact non-parametric representation of image texture, and are ...
Pix2Prof: fast extraction of sequential information from galaxy imagery via a deep natural language ‘captioning’ model
(2021-02-01)
We present ‘Pix2Prof’, a deep learning model that can eliminate any manual steps taken when measuring galaxy profiles. We argue that a galaxy profile of any sort is conceptually similar to a natural language image caption. ...
A small actively-controlled high-resolution spectrograph based on off-the-shelf components
(2021-02-01)
We present the design and testing of a prototype in-plane echelle spectrograph based on an actively controlled fiber-fed double-pass design. This system aims to be small and efficient with the minimum number of optical ...
Galactic 26Al traces metal loss through hot chimneys
(2021-02-01)
Radioactive 26Al is an excellent tracer for metal ejection in the Milky Way, and can provide a direct constraint on the modelling of supernova feedback in galaxy evolution. Gamma-ray observations of the 26Al decay line ...
Preparation and Properties of Graphene Doped TiO2 Mesoporous Materials for Photocathode Protection
(2021-01-31)
In this study, TiO2-Graphene nanocomposites with a pore size of 10-15 nm were prepared by a sol-gel method under ultrasonic radiation environment. This kind of TiO2-Graphene nanocomposites show excellent performance in the ...
Quarter and Full Car Models Optimisation of Passive and Active Suspension System Using Genetic Algorithm
(2021-01-29)
This study evaluates a suspension design of a passenger car to obtain maximum rider's comfort when the vehicle is subjected to different road profile or road surface condition. The challenge will be on finding a balance ...
Controversy and Doxa: Sustainable Food Policy and the English Vegetable Sector
(2021-01-29)
Purpose: The authors explore the market agora and the shaping of markets as controversies over the meaning and practices related to sustainability evolved. This study aims to explore what happened in a market-oriented ...
Insights into the delivery of personalised nutrition: evidence from face-to-face and web-based dietary interventions
(2021-01-27)
Prevention strategies for non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are a global priority as it has been estimated that NCDs will account for around 73% of worldwide mortality by the year 2020. The adoption of diets that are low ...
Functional Interventions as Augmentation Strategies for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) : Scoping Review and Expert Survey from the International College of Obsessive-Compulsive Spectrum Disorders (ICOCS)
(2021-01-27)
Background. Patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) commonly exhibit a range of functional difficulties, presumed linked to neurocognitive changes. Evidence-based first-line treatments have limited effect on ...
On symmetries and dynamics of exotic supermultiplets
(2021-01-27)
Among the allowed representations of extended supersymmetry in six dimensions there are exotic chiral multiplets that, instead of a graviton, contain mixed-symmetry spin-2 tensor fields. Notably, an N = (4, 0) multiplet ...
