A spatial stochastic programming model for timber and core area management under risk of stand-replacing fire
… consider timber harvest and mature forest core area objectives. Each model run reports first-period harvesting decisions for each stand based on a sample set of random fire. We integrate multiple model runs to evaluate the persistence of period-one solutions under the influence of …

An investigation of a pattern recognition system to analyse and classify dried fruit
… be catered for: the red/brown coloured central core area of dried peaches had to be removed from the colour analysis, and Black blemishes upon dried pears had to be isolated and sized in order to supplement the colour classifier in the final classification of the pear. The core area of a dried …

Activity patterns of baboons (Papio ursinus) at Cape Point
… most frequently throughout the year in a 45 ha core area containing one sleeping cliff. The troop showed no clear habitat preferences, but occupied alien Acacia thickets and Upland Mixed Fynbos more frequently than expected from the spatial distribution of these vegetation types in the …

Forest songbird abundance and viability at multiple scales on the Monongahela National Forest, West Virginia
… landscapes ranging from 42% to 81% forest core area. Nest search plots were long and narrow (200 m by 2000 m), and superimposed over point count transects. Forested core area and edge density showed little relationship to bird abundance or viability at landscape or transect/plot scales. A …

Using geographic information systems to examine red wolf home range and habitat use in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park
… order to ascertain gender-based home range and core area size differences, home range and core areas were determined for 16 of 31 red wolf data sets (9 male, 7 female). A fixed kernel analysis with least squares cross validation was used to determine home range (95%) and core areas (50%) from …

Learning semantic structures from in-domain documents
Semantic analysis is a core area of natural language understanding that has typically focused on predicting domain-independent representations. However, such representations are unable to fully realize the rich diversity of technical content prevalent in a variety of specialized domains. Taking the …

Design and implementation of a converter with wide operating range using a Variable-Inverter-Rectifier-Transformer structure
… allows for a full utilization of the effective core area in all modes of operation and hence improvement in a core loss. Moreover, a hybrid Litz-PCB construction of VIRT transformer is explored. This approach reduces copper loss and easily satisfies the voltage insulation requirements in such …
