Burst attacks (e.g. Brute Force, DoS, DDoS, etc) have become a great concern for the today's computer networks, causing millions of losses to the society. Even though the detection of burst attacks is widely investigated, ...

Background. Formal education in primary care can reduce asthma exacerbations. However, there are few studies in hospitalized children, with none originating in Latin America. Methods. A prospective randomized study was ...

Plants are non-motile organisms subjected to constant attack of microorganisms, vertebrate and invertebrate animals and even other plants. This feature forced plant evolution to the development of an original defence system, ...

Most studies of predator-induced plasticity have focused on documenting how prey species respond to predators by modifying phenotypic traits and how traits correlate with fitness. We have previously shown that Pleurodema ...

Nowadays, computer systems require the modeling of musical and speech signals for several purposes: synthesis, computational hearing, acoustic analysis, systematic musicology, transformation, composition, and many others. ...

We describe a neural network model of the mouse amygdala and hypothalamus that is able to support competitive interactions between social and grooming behaviors, as well as basic findings about how these behaviors are ...

Objectives: Kupffer cells, liver macrophages involved in immunomodulation, phagocytosis, and biochemical attack, can induce cytotoxicity and inflammation when their activity is exacerbated. The aim of this study was to ...

Key message: Genes associated with plant mechanical stimulation were found in strawberry genome. A soft mechanical stimulation (SMS) induces molecular and biochemical changes in strawberry plants, conferring protection ...
