Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCRITERIA FOR THE COMPLEXITY OF SUCCESSIVE ASTRONOMICAL PARADIGMSPanagiotis Papaspirou, Kostas Karamanos, Xenophon MoussasWe investigate the complexity of three successive astronomical paradigms in the science of Physics, namely the Ptolemaic paradigm, the Copernican paradigm and the Keplerian paradigm and mention briefly some characteristic facts about the colossal Newtonian paradigm. This complexity can be understood according to five criteria, as proposed by Thomas Kuhn, the father of the epistemological notion of the paradigm, as … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2014 · 8,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEarly Greek Astrophysics: The Foundations of Modern Science and TechnologyXenophon MoussasThe foundations of modern science and technology, metrology, experimental physics, theoretical physics, theoretical mathematics, astrophysics, including applied optics and spectroscopy go back to the Prehistoric, Presocratic, Classical and Hellenistic Greece. This tradition is well deep rooted in time, going back mainly to the epoch of the prehistoric Aegean sea, the mainland of Greece and the Islands, Cycladic, Euboea, as well … …Space Science International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 4 Feb 2014 · 8,679 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA Brief Tour into the History of Gravity: From Emocritus to EinsteinPanagiotis Papaspirou, Xenophon MoussasThe History of Gravity encompasses many different versions of the idea of the Gravitational interaction, which starts already from the Presocratic Atomists, continues to the doctrines of the Platonic and Neoplatonic School and of the Aristotelian School, passes through the works of John Philoponus and John Bouridan and reaches the visions of Johannes Kepler and Galileo Galilei. Then, the major … …Space Science International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 20 Jun 2013 · 15,084 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSelf-Supervised Contrastive Learning for Steering Angle Prediction in Autonomous Driving SimulationsMaxson Phang, Suryadiputra LiawatimenaPredicting steering angles is a crucial task in autonomous driving, with end-to-end deep learning being a widely used approach. However, such models often suffer from overfitting to learned trajectories, limiting their generalization to new data. To address this, self-supervised contrastive learning is explored as an alternative, allowing models to learn meaningful representations without labeled data. The primary objective is to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 9 · 20 Oct 2025 · 2,581 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Path Analysis to Understanding the Epidemiology of Murine Typhus in South TexasHongwei Wang, Orlando M. Patricio, Fernando G. Quintana et al.This study aims to investigate statistically if there is a causality for the murine typhus endemic disease related to precipitation, temperature and the natural cycle of flea development in South Texas. Path analysis was used to determine the mediating and moderating variables that cause murine typhus disease. Three path diagram models were tested. Model 3 shows a clearer path on … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 4 Mar 2024 · 5,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Feed Additive Supplementation on Growth Performance, Intestinal Morphology, Intestinal Microflora and Nutrient Digestibility Study of Broiler ChickenSunday Egba Omogo, Emeka Henry Oparaji, Franklin Uzodinma EdejiThe present study evaluated the effect of various feed additive supplementation on growth performance, intestinal morphology, intestinal microflora and nutrient digestibility study of starter broiler chicks. A day-old broiler chicks with total number of two hundred and four (204) (Ross 308) were randomly allotted to eight (8) dietary treatments with four (4) replicate pens per treatment (average of 6 birds … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 7 May 2021 · 8,334 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGlutathione S-transferase (T1 & M1) Null Genotypes as Risk Determinants in Sudanese for Developing Type Two Diabetes MellitusGaafar Mahmoud, Hisham Mohamed Abdelrahim, Abed Al Salam Aljahmany, Eltayeb Mohamed Ahmed TayrabGlutathione S-transferases (GSTT1 and GSTM1) are globular proteins responsible for the detoxification of xenobiotics and the prevention of oxidative damage. Functional polymorphisms of the antioxidant glutathione and enzymes have a role in the pathogenicity of T2DM and its complications. The present study is aimed to assess association between GSTM1 and GSTT1 genetic polymorphisms with T2DM in Sudanese people. This case-control … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 16 Oct 2020 · 6,423 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractEditorial Commentary: Challenge of Non–AIDS-Defining Cancers (NADCs), Focusing on Trans Activation Response Element (TAR) RNA Embedding ExosomesLechuang Chen, Ge JinGlobally, 37.9 million people were living with HIV at the end of 2018 (Organization, 2018). Cancer is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in AIDS patients and chronically HIV-infected people. With the aid of combination Antiretroviral Therapy (ART), people living with HIV (PLWH) have a longer life span. However, because the virus is not completely eradicated, PLWH under antiretroviral … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 28 Nov 2019 · 6,657 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Functional Analysis of the Basic Helix-Loop-Helix Proteins in the Clawed Frogs' Genomes With Common Essential Pathways and Enriched Gene Ontology TermsWuyi LiuThe international Gene Ontology (GO) and pathway databases were used to functionally analyze the clawed frogs' Basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH) transcription factors of Xenopus tropicalis and Xenopus laevis in a updated genome-wide survey. There were 41 GO terms and one pathway significantly enriched for Xenopus tropicalis, whereas there were 45 GO terms and 3 pathways significantly enriched for Xenopus laevis. Among … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2019 · 8,490 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
