Hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgical processes to recover gold (Au) from cell-phone printed circuit boards (PCBs) have the disadvantage of generating corrosive residues and consuming a large amount of energy.Therefore, it is necessary to look for biological processes that have low energy consumption and are friendly to the environment.Among the

This paper demonstrates for the first time the potential of explicitly modelling the individual roof surfaces to reconstruct 3-D prismatic building models using spaceborne tomographic synthetic aperture radar (TomoSAR) point clouds.The proposed approach is modular and works as follows: it first extracts the buildings via DSM generation and cutting-

Today, patients generate a massive amount of health records through electronic health records (EHRs).Extracting usable knowledge of patients’ pathological conditions or diagnoses is essential for the reasoning process in rule-based systems to support the process of clinical decision making.Association rule mining is capable of discovering hid

Clinical and microbiological characteristics of patients with Bacteroides prosthetic joint infection (PJI) have not been well described in the literature.The aim of this click here retrospective cohort study was to assess the outcome of patients with Bacteroides PJI and to review risk factors associated with failure of therapy.Between 1/1969 and 12
