Mapping and monitoring forest cover changes in Lao PDR using remote sensing
… or inconsistent, including in the Lao PDR, due to socio-economic deficits, political interests and geographical constraints. Remote sensing technology has played a crucial role in providing the information required for reliable mapping and monitoring of forest cover changes at local, …

Mutations in PARKIN (pdr-1) Results in Increased Reproductive Fitness in C. elegans
… carrying a mutation of the homozygous gene, pdr-1, displayed increased reproductive fitness. This suggests that familial parkin mutation may have a beneficial effect in terms of natural selection even though its known clinical effect in PD patients bearing this mutation is detrimental. This …

Enhancing Body-Mounted LiDAR SLAM using an IMU-based Pedestrian Dead Reckoning (PDR) Model
… fusion scheme. A Pedestrian Dead Reckoning (PDR) model based on inertial sensors is used to enhance LiDAR-based SLAM. This proposed fusion uses the PDR model as a replacement for wheel odometry in vehicular platforms. A system prototype has been developed and used for data collection and …

Changing lives, changing nature(s): socio-environmental transitions in the uplands of the Lao PDR
… of the land degradation issue in the Lao PDR, the consequences of this construction for policy interventions in the uplands, and the social and environmental outcomes of these interventions. For that purpose, livelihood analysis is integrated into the theoretical framework of political …

Pharmacophore-directed retrosynthesis (PDR) and Density functional theory studies applied to the potent ion channel inhibitor waixenicin A : synthetic studies toward a more stable salarin C congener, thia-salarin C, through the lens of PDR.
… Pharmacophore-directed retrosynthesis (PDR) was also applied to WaixA leading to the design and synthesis of a series of monocyclic derivatives bearing the proposed pharmacophore. The ability of these highly simplified WaixA derivatives to exert inhibitory effects on TRPM7 was measured …

Why do countries join international literacy assessments? an actor-network theory analysis with case studies from Lao PDR and Mongolia.
… through case studies of LAMP in the Lao PDR and Mongolia. Setting my research in the emerging field I define as International Assessment Studies, I argue that Lao PDR and Mongolia join international assessments for reasons that go beyond the need to inform policy (as stated by the UIS and …

First observation of the Pygmy Dipole Resonance in the nucleus 68Ni using an isoscalar probe above the neutron emission threshold
… lo studio della Risonanza Pygmy di Dipolo (PDR) nel nucleo 68Ni. Attualmente lo studio della PDR è di notevole interesse, in quanto permette di ottenere informazioni riguardanti, non solo la struttura nucleare dei nuclei, ma anche le dimensioni della pelle di neutroni in nuclei ricchi di …

Multiwavelength Study of Photodissociation Regions and a Near -Infrared Imager
… observations of photodissociation regions (PDRs) in the millimeter, far-infrared, and near-infrared wavelength regimes are interpreted in the context of PDR theory. Three modifications to the standard Tielens & Hollenbach PDR model are considered. The first modification adds nitrogen …

Power-Demand Routing in massive geo-distributed systems
… of concern. We introduce Power-Demand Routing (PDR), a technique that redistributes traffic between replicas with the express purpose of spatially redistributing the system's power consumption, in order to reduce operating costs. Cost can be described in monetary terms or in terms of pollution. …

An investigation into the cellular mechanisms underlying photodynamic rejuvenation in human skin
Photodynamic Rejuvenation (PDR) is a novel therapy used to treat the signs of skin ageing. It is a promising dermatological therapy due to its less severe side effects and superior results when compared to other chemical treatments. This therapy involves the topical application of a …

Dividend tax changes and ex-dividend behaviour: the case of South Africa
… change and post-tax change in price drop ratio (PDR). In this study, I compare the mean and median PDR before and after the April 2012 Act using a t-test and Wilcoxon Mann Whitney test respectively. Furthermore, this study employs a fixed effects regression model to analyse the PDR change on the …

Adaptive Multicast Routing Protocol Based on Reinforcement Learning
… either suffer from low Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) or high overhead. These methods rely on metrics like hop count to find the optimal path to the destination. Once the path is selected, all packets are sent over the same path as long as it is available. However, a path that is deemed optimal at …
