Opisthorchiasis in infant remains from the medieval Zeleniy Yar burial ground of XII-XIII centuries AD

We present a paleoparasitological analysis of the medieval Zeleniy Yar burial ground of the XII-XII centuries AD located in the northern part of Western Siberia. Parasite eggs, identified as eggs of Opisthorchis felineus, were found in the samples from the pelvic area of a one year old infant buried at the site. Presence of these eggs in the soil samples from the infant’s abdomen suggests that he/she was infected with opisthorchiasis and imply consumption of undercooked fish. Ethnographic records collected among the population of the northern part of Western Siberia reveal numerous cases of feeding raw fish to their children. Zeleniy Yar case of opisthorchiasis suggests that this dietary custom has persisted from at least medieval times.

Reconeixement facial en obres d'art : avaluació del rendiment dels mètodes de l'estat de l'art actual

Aquest paper es divideix en 3 parts fonamentals, la primera relata el que pretén mostrar aquest estudi, que és aplicar els sistemes actuals de reconeixement facial en una base de dades d'obres d'art. Explica quins mètodes s'utilitzaran i perquè es interessant realitzar aquest estudi. La segona passa a mostrar el detall de les dades obtingudes en l'experiment, amb imatges i gràfics que facilitaran la comprensió. I en l'última part tenim la discussió dels resultats obtinguts en l'anàlisi i les seves posteriors conclusions.

Embedding objects into Matlab/Simulink for process supervision

This paper introduces how artificial intelligence technologies can be integrated into a known computer aided control system design (CACSD) framework, Matlab/Simulink, using an object oriented approach. The aim is to build a framework to aid supervisory systems analysis, design and implementation. The idea is to take advantage of an existing CACSD framework, Matlab/Simulink, so that engineers can proceed: first to design a control system, and then to design a straightforward supervisory system of the control system in the same framework. Thus, expert systems and qualitative reasoning tools are incorporated into this popular CACSD framework to develop a computer aided supervisory system design (CASSD) framework. Object-variables an introduced into Matlab/Simulink for sharing information between tools
