Context: YOLO (You Look Only Once) is an algorithm based on deep neural networks with real-time object detection capabilities. This state-of-the-art technology is widely available, mainly due to its speed and precision. Since its conception, YOLO has been applied to detect and recognize traffic signs, pedestrians, traffic lights, vehicles, and so on. Objective: The goal of this research is to systematically analyze the YOLO object detection algorithm, applied to traffic sign detection and recognition ...

We report the Hall constant RH, drift mobility μD, and Hall mobility μH measured at 4 K in thin gold films deposited on mica substrates, where the dominant electron scattering mechanism is electron-surface scattering. RH increases with increasing film thickness and decreases with increasing magnetic field. For high magnetic fields B≥6 T, RH turns out to be approximately independent of magnetic field, and its value is close to that of the free electron model. We use the high magnetic field values ...

ABSTRACT The regiospecific synthesis and isolation of three series of 5-trichloromethyl-pyrazoles 2f–j, 3a–j and 4a–j from the cyclocondensation of 1,1,1-trichloro-4-alkoxy-3-alken-2-ones (1a–f) or trichloroacetyl containing β-diketones (1g–j) with dry hydrazine and phenyl-hydrazine is reported. It was established by 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy that the 5-hydroxy-5-trichloromethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole intermediates 2a–j were formed quantitatively.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a combination of metabolic disorders associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Studies in women reported associations between polymorphisms in ESR1, LPL and CETP genes and MetS. Our aim was to evaluate the association between variants in ESR1, LPL and CETP genes with MetS and its components. Four hundred and eighty women were analyzed, anthropometric features and biochemical profiles were evaluated, and genotyping was performed by real-time PCR. ...

Cholangiocarcinoma is the second most common primary tumor of the liver. The incidence and mortality of its intrahepatic form has been increasing over the past 2 decades. Currently, the only available curative treatment for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is surgical resection. There is still no prospective evidence to support neoadjuvant systemic treatments in resectable disease, while adjuvant chemotherapy with Capecitabine is currently the only recommended systemic treatment after liver resection ...

Rabies transmitted by common vampire bats (Desmodus rotundus) has been known since the early 1900s but continues to expand geographically and in the range of species and environments affected. In this review, we present current knowledge of the epidemiology and management of rabies in D. rotundus and argue that it can be reasonably considered an emerging public health threat. We identify knowledge gaps related to the landscape determinants of the bat reservoir, reduction in bites on humans and livestock, ...

This work presents a study on the thin films of WO3 deposited on a flexible substrate as a possible application in a flexible electrochromic device. The films were prepared by the sol-gel method and deposited by a dip-coating technique on indium tin oxide/poly(ethylene terephthalate) (ITO/PET) and densified at 100 °C for 1 h. The films of WO3 were subjected to electrochemical, optical, structural, and morphological characterizations that pointed out the film, deposited with a withdrawal of 60 mm min− ...

Abstract We show that supersymmetry and inflation, in a broad class of models, generically lead to formation of primordial black holes (PBHs) that can account for dark matter. Supersymmetry predicts a number of scalar fields that develop a coherent condensate along the flat directions of the potential at the end of inflation. The subsequent evolution of the condensate involves perturbative decay, as well as fragmentation into Q-balls, which can interact by some long-range forces mediated by the scalar ...
