Particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms have exhibited good performance on well-known numerical test problems. In this paper, we propose a supervisor-student model in particle swarm optimization ...

Previous studies that have investigated the water-soluble compounds from biomass burning (31−35) found that after inhalation, the majority of water-soluble aerosols would be quickly released into the ...

Visual neuroscience data support monocular depth cues such as texture gradients. Although the binocular disparity energy model has been developed, it concentrates on binocular depth perception. We ...

Massive-Parallel Trajectory Calculations (MPTRAC) is a high-performance Lagrangian particle dispersion model designed to simulate and analyze atmospheric transport processes in the free troposphere ...

Oats, apples, beans and chia seeds are good sources of soluble fibre, he notes. 2. Insoluble fibre: “This type of fibre doesn't dissolve in water so, instead, it adds bulk to stool and helps move ...

Water-soluble organic compounds (WSOCs) readily uptake water and form atmospheric droplets. Understanding the water-uptake ability of these WSOCs can improve our understanding of their radiative ...

NEW YORK (AP) — Final results from a long-running U.S.-based experiment announced Tuesday show a tiny particle continues to act strangely -- but that’s still good news for the laws of physics as we ...
