We use the Rajaji-Corbett corridor in the Terai Arc Landscape (TAL) in India to examine the pattern of human–felid conflict in wildlife corridors and its implications for the long-term persistence of tigers (Panthera tigris) and leopards (Panthera pardus) in the landscape.We administered a questionnaire survey of people residing in and around the
Dental Implant Site Drilling and Induced Morphological Changes Correlated with Temperature in Pig’s Rib Used as the Human Jaw Model
The bone tissue destruction during drilling is still one of the crucial problems in implantology.In this study, the influence of drilling speed, coolant presence, and its temperature on bone tissue was tested using swine rib as a biological model of human jaws.The same method of drilling (with or without coolant) was used in all tested Stemless Win
Science Communication Demands a Critical Approach That Centers Inclusion, Equity, and Intersectionality
We live in an era of abundant scientific information, yet access to information and to opportunities for substantive public engagement with the processes and outcomes of science are still inequitably distributed.Even with increasing interest in science communication and public engagement with science, historically marginalized and minoritized indiv
Artificial intelligence and machine learning in orthopedic surgery: a systematic review protocol
Abstract Background Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are interwoven into our everyday lives and have grown enormously in some major fields in medicine including cardiology and radiology.While these specialties have quickly embraced AI and ML, orthopedic surgery has been slower to do so.Fortunately, there has been a recent surg
Self-Evolving Chebyshev Radial Basis Function Neural Complementary Sliding Mode Control
A novel intelligent complementary sliding mode control (ICSMC) method is proposed for nonlinear systems with unknown uncertainties in this paper.A self-evolving Chebyshev radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) (SECRBFNN) with self-learning parameters and structure is proposed and combined with complementary sliding mode control (CSMC).CSMC no
