  • However, finding galaxy clusters that are farther away in space - and further back in time - is a difficult and uncertain exercise. (mit.edu)
  • High-temperature objects give off X-rays, and the hotter a galaxy cluster, the more the gas within that cluster has been compressed, making the cluster more massive. (mit.edu)
  • Run it, but just click 'Analyze' not 'Run Cleaner' and let me know how much space you gain back. (heidi.ie)
  • It is necessary to investigate the spatial, temporal, and space-time distribution of confirmed cases of HFRS in Liaoning Province, China for future research into risk factors. (biomedcentral.com)
  • METHODS: All VL cases and deaths reported between 2007 and 2018 were included. (bvsalud.org)
  • In the event of the virus installer, the trojan horse has a bit more flexibility than a typical boot sector virus, simply because it doesn't have to fit itself into a relatively small space. (textfiles.com)
  • From 2021 to 2023, Raphael was Co-Investigator on a large network grant on 'Muslims in a time of Hindu majoritarianism' funded by the Luce Foundation (PIs Christophe Jaffrelot and Bernard Haykel ). (lse.ac.uk)
  • Before this discovery, astronomers could only observe far-away stars within clusters. (mndaily.com)
  • Key locations are defined as maxima and minima of the result of difference of Gaussians function applied in scale space to a series of smoothed and resampled images. (wikipedia.org)
  • Photometric time series obtained from space are one of the best ways to study pulsations in pre-main sequence (PMS) stars, especially as the corresponding amplitudes are at the millimagnitude level or below. (aanda.org)
  • We present high-precision time-series photometry of stars in the field of NGC 2264 obtained with the MOST (Microvariability & Oscillations of STars) satellite. (aanda.org)
  • Nowcasting GDP and inflation: the real-time informational content of macroeconomic data releases ," Finance and Economics Discussion Series 2005-42, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (U.S. (repec.org)
  • Enter (or paste) a matrix (table) containing all data (time) series. (wessa.net)
  • time series and static ones. (lu.se)
  • A third approach, which is often suggested for time-series prediction, is to use recurrent networks with feed-back connections. (lu.se)
  • However, in our experience with time series the simple MLP produces as good solutions as recurrent networks, within much shorter training times, given that one is using the appropriate time lagged inputs [ 49 ]. (lu.se)
  • Geolocating tweets following natural hazards or terror attacks can be clustered, and rescue and evacuation needs can be informed based on the size and location of the clusters identified. (arcgis.com)
