We present a novel architecture for an AI system that allows a priori knowledge to combine with deep learning. In traditional neural networks, all available data is pooled at the input layer. Our alternative neural network is constructed so that partial representations (invariants) are learned in the …

Inhibition of the sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) by canagliflozin in type 2 diabetes mellitus results in large between-patient variability in clinical response. To better understand this variability, the positron emission tomography (PET) tracer [18F]canagliflozin was developed via a Cu-mediated …

The increasing trend of sustainable and on-the-go healthy food products results in consumers demanding more ‘natural and organic ingredients. Not only do consumers want healthier options, but there is also an increasing concern on part of governments and legislation makers on reducing salt levels in …

This paper presents a proof of concept for monitoring masonry structures using two different types of markers which are not easily noticeable by human eye but exhibit high reflection when subjected to NIR (near-infrared) wavelength of light. The first type is a retroreflective marker covered by a special …

The sustainable provision of enough nutritious food for a growing world population is pushing the food system towards finding new approaches to agriculture (Ockenden, et al., 2017). While the demand of animal products is rising (Armanda, Guinée, & Tukker, 2019), the negative effect on the climate, soil, …

The number of people that live on the earth continues to grow. However, the amount of food that traditional farming can provide is limited. On top of that livestock farming is not a sustainable food source and the environment suffers a great deal. Therefore, it is essential to look for alternative sources …

Animals can alter their foraging behavior through associative learning, where an encounter with an essential resource (e.g., food or a reproductive opportunity) is associated with nearby environmental cues (e.g., volatiles). This can subsequently improve the animal’s foraging efficiency. However, when …

Wetenschappelijk artikel gepubliceerd met betrekking tot ' rotocraft access panel from recycled carbon PPS 'A rotorcraft access panel is developed and was successfully flight tested. Utilizing a novel recycling route, the panel is lighter, more cost-effective and of recycled thermoplastic composites.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.repl.2020.08.003 (First …

Application of animal manure to soils results in the introduction of manure-derived bacteria and their antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) into soils. ResCap is a novel targeted-metagenomic approach that allows the detection of minority components of the resistome gene pool without the cost-prohibitive …
