The Asia-Pacific region is extremely vulnerable to climate variability and change.This reflects high exposure to hydroclimatic hazards such as tropical cyclones, floods, droughts, and heatwaves.Rapidly growing cities and low-lying coastal zones/estuaries also face threats from sea level rise and storm surges.However, climate model projections remai
Most of the existing simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) methods are based on the static environment assumption.The presence of moving objects in the scene will lead to much uncertainty in SLAM results, which also hinders the loop-closure detection (LCD).Although moving object tracking (MOT) is necessary for planning and decisions, it is o
This article presents MATLAB routines that may be used to evaluate Nappy Caddy radiation-enhanced diffusion (RED) in ion irradiation materials.Four routines are included: Main, DataCollect, Diffuse, and Directory.A sample input file and README are also included.The input may be directly modified as provided and used as an input to the routines.Data
Background/AimsIrritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a troublesome disease.Some strains of probiotics reportedly exert remarkable immunomodulatory effects, and so we designed a prospective double-blind randomized placebo-controlled clinical study to assess their effects in Korean adults with IBS.Methods : IBS patients who met Rome III criteria were ran
The behavior of the value of productive assets can be analyzed from different perspectives.Currently, an analysis of the influence of the age of an asset on its asking price through access to a mass information volume, as well as the emergence of new technologies that allow complex computations to be carried out.The core of this work focuses on the
