Many film locations around the world have become the pull factors for tourists to visit. The American soap opera ‘Sex and the City' is a prime example of that. Hundreds of restaurants, bars, and shops featured in the films and TV series turn out to be must-see destinations for tourists visiting different places. The Indian film named ‘Roza' has attracted a lot of tourist to visit a beautiful place in North India, named Kashmir. Recently, the tourists prefer to visit those destinations which are featured in films or movies and television series. This phenomenon is known as film induced tourism. In this paper, we propose a film induce tourism technique which can be evaluated by the mosaiced image obtained from a movie. The proposed system firstly read all the image sequences from a movie, and stitched them together such a way so that it becomes very much easier for a tourist to choose the best holiday destination from a movie or television series.

COVID-19 is a severe global problem that has crippled many industries and killed many people around the world. One of the primary ways to decrease the casualties is the infected person's identification at the proper time. AI can play a significant role in these cases by monitoring and detecting infected persons in early-stage so that it can help many organizations. In this paper, we aim to propose a fully-automated method to detect COVID-19 from the patient's CT scan without needing a clinical technician. We introduce a new dataset that contains 48260 CT scan images from 282 normal persons and 15589 images from 95 patients with COVID-19 infection. Our proposed network takes all the CT scan image sequences of a patient as the input and determines if the patient is infected with COVID-19. At the first stage, this network runs an image processing algorithm to discard those CT images that inside the lung is not properly visible in them. This helps to reduce the number of images that shall be identified as normal or COVID-19, so it reduces the processing time. Also, running this algorithm makes the deep network at the next stage to analyze only the proper images and thus reduces false detections. At the next stage, we propose a modified version of ResNet50V2 that is enhanced by a feature pyramid network for classifying the selected CT images into COVID-19 or normal. If enough number of chosen CT scan images of a patient be identified as COVID-19, the network considers that patient, infected to this disease. The ResNet50V2 with feature pyramid network achieved 98.49% accuracy on more than 7996 validation images and correctly identified almost 237 patients from 245 patients.

AbstractA pragmatist philosophy of psychological science offers to the direct replication debate concrete recommendations and novel benefits that are not discussed in Zwaan et al. This philosophy guides our work as field experimentalists interested in behavioral measurement. Furthermore, all psychologists can relate to its ultimate aim set out by William James: to study mental processes that provide explanations for why people behave as they do in the world.

Abstract Culture shapes our basic sensory experience of the world. This is particularly striking in the study of religion and psychosis, where we and others have shown that cultural context determines both the structure and content of hallucination-like events. The cultural shaping of hallucinations may provide a rich case-study for linking cultural learning with emerging prediction-based models of perception.

Abstract Hoerl & McCormack argue that animals cannot represent past situations and subsume animals’ memory-like representations within a model of the world. I suggest calling these memory-like representations as what they are without beating around the bush. I refer to them as event memories and explain how they are different from episodic memory and how they can guide action in animal cognition.

AbstractFe XIV 530.3 nm coronal emission line observations have been used for the estimation of the green solar corona rotation. A homogeneous data set, created from measurements of the world-wide coronagraphic network, has been examined with a help of correlation analysis to reveal the averaged synodic rotation period as a function of latitude and time over the epoch from 1947 to 1991.The values of the synodic rotation period obtained for this epoch for the whole range of latitudes and a latitude band ±30° are 27.52±0.12 days and 26.95±0.21 days, resp. A differential rotation of green solar corona, with local period maxima around ±60° and minimum of the rotation period at the equator, was confirmed. No clear cyclic variation of the rotation has been found for examinated epoch but some monotonic trends for some time intervals are presented.A detailed investigation of the original data and their correlation functions has shown that an existence of sufficiently reliable tracers is not evident for the whole set of examinated data. This should be taken into account in future more precise estimations of the green corona rotation period.

The lymphatic system is very important in the immunological activities of the body. Clinicians confirm the diagnosis of infectious diseases by palpating the involved cutaneous lymph node for changes in size, heat, and consistency. Clinical pathologists diagnose systemic diseases through biopsies of superficial lymph nodes. In many parts of the world the goat is considered as an important source of milk and meat products.The lymphatic system has been studied extensively. These studies lack precise information on the natural morphology of the lymph nodes and their vascular and cellular constituent. This is due to using improper technique for such studies. A few studies used the SEM, conducted by cutting the lymph node with a blade. The morphological data collected by this method are artificial and do not reflect the normal three dimensional surface of the examined area of the lymph node. SEM has been used to study the lymph vessels and lymph nodes of different animals. No information on the cutaneous lymph nodes of the goat has ever been collected using the scanning electron microscope.

The canine heartworm is a common and serious nematode parasite of domestic dogs in many parts of the world. Although nematode neuroanatomy is fairly well documented, the emphasis has been on sensory anatomy and primarily in free-living soil species and ascarids. Lee and Miller reported on the muscular anatomy in the heartworm, but provided little insight into the peripheral nervous system or myoneural relationships. The classical fine-structural description of nematode muscle innervation is Rosenbluth's earlier work in Ascaris. Since the pharmacological effects of some nematacides currently being developed are neuromuscular in nature, a better understanding of heartworm myoneural anatomy, particularly in reference to the synaptic region is warranted.
