Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a degenerative brain disease, a common health problem in elderly pesople which causes decline in memory and affected on nerve cells. AD has different stages like mild congestive impairment (MIC) (early stage), moderate (middle stage), severe (late stage) it is essential to detect AD early in MIC, so that pre-emptive measures can be taken. Significant research was carried out over the past century to diagnose and detect this disease early. The objective of the article is provide a review evaluation and critical analysis of the recent research work done to early diagnosis of AD using Machine Learning Strategies.

Extinction Events

The past century has witnessed a number of significant breakthroughs in the study of extinction in the fossil record, from the discovery of a bolide impact as the probable cause of the end-Cretaceous (K/T) mass extinction to the designation of the “Big 5” mass extinction events. Here, I summarize the major themes that have emerged from the past thirty years of extinction research and highlight a number of promising directions for future research. These directions explore a central theme—the evolutionary consequences of extinction— and focus on three broad research areas: the effects of selectivity, the importance of recovery intervals, and the influence of spatial patterns. Examples of topics explored include the role that trait variation plays in survivorship, the comparative effects of extinctions of varying magnitudes on evolutionary patterns, the re-establishment of macroevolutionary patterns in the aftermath of extinction, and the extent to which spatial autocorrelation affects extinction patterns. These topics can be approached by viewing extinctions as repeated natural experiments in the history of life and developing hypotheses to explicitly test across multiple events. Exploring the effects of extinction also requires an interdisciplinary approach, applying evolutionary, ecological, geochronological, geochemical, tectonic, and paleoclimatic tools to both extinction and recovery intervals.

Response Effectiveness

Most organizations face difficult challenges in managing knowledge for crisis response, but it is crucial for response effectiveness that such challenges be overcome. Organizational members must share the knowledge needed to plan for emergencies. They also must be able during an emergency to access relevant plans and communicate about their responses to it. This article examines the role and relevance of knowledge management (and knowledge management systems therein) in support of crisis response. We begin by discussing what knowledge management and crisis response mean. We move on to suggest why crisis response efforts within an organizational context, might benefit from knowledge management initiatives. Specific examples of how knowledge management efforts have supported crisis response in the past are then presented. We end by offering researchers with some suggestions for future research work in light of this subject domain.

Solids Separation

Sedimentation of sewer solids in tanks, ponds and similar devices is the most relevant process for the treatment of stormwater and combined sewer overflows in urban collecting systems. In the past a lot of research work was done to develop deterministic models for the description of this separation process. But these modern models are not commonly accepted in Germany until today. Water Authorities are sceptical with regard to model validation and transferability. Within this paper it is checked whether this scepticism is reasonable. A framework-proposal for the validation of mathematical models with zero or one dimensional spatial resolution for particle separation processes for stormwater and combined sewer overflow treatment is presented. This proposal was applied to publications of repute on sewer solids separation by sedimentation. The result was that none of the investigated models described in literature passed the validation entirely. There is an urgent need for future research in sewer solids sedimentation and remobilization!

This article reports on the state of the art of artificial hands, discussing some of the field's most important trends and suggesting directions for future research. We review and group the most important application domains of robotic hands, extracting the set of requirements that ultimately led to the use of simplified actuation schemes and soft materials and structures—two themes that clearly emerge from our examination of developments over the past century. We provide a comprehensive analysis of novel technologies for the design of joints, transmissions, and actuators that enabled these trends. We conclude by discussing some important new perspectives generated by simpler and softer hands and their interaction with other aspects of hand design and robotics in general.

AbstractOur review highlights research during the past century focussed on the population ecology of outbreak-prone insect defoliators in Canadian forests. Based on reports from national and provincial surveys that began in the 1930s, there have been at least 106 insect defoliators reported to outbreak, most of which are native Lepidoptera, Hymenoptera (sawflies), or Coleoptera (in order of frequency from most to least). Studies comparing life-history traits of outbreak versus non-outbreak species to better understand why certain species are more outbreak-prone indicate several traits especially common among outbreak species, including egg clustering and aggregative larval feeding. There have been at least 50 time-series studies examining the spatiotemporal population behaviour of 12 major defoliator species. These studies provide evidence for both regular periodicity and spatial synchrony of outbreaks for most major species. Life-table studies seeking to understand the agents causing populations to fluctuate have been carried out for at least seven outbreak species, with the majority identifying natural enemies (usually parasitoids) as the major driver of outbreak collapse. Our review concludes with several case studies highlighting the impact and historical underpinnings of population studies for major defoliator species and a discussion of potential avenues for future research.

Last ten years attention to gastronomic tourism has grown up noticeably. This term came to us rather recently but has become usual and understandable for both Russian and foreigner tourist. Without abandoning traditional working with visitors, today museums are interested in realizing of new partner projects aimed to creation of the past century atmosphere. The Museum-Reserve «The Estate «Muranovo» already some years works on the study of economic papers belonged to an owner of the Muranovo estate Leo Engelgardt. This artifact is studied in comparison with culinary rules are known in Russia from the beginning of the XIX century. Special attention is paid to the «New Full Cookbook» published in 1808. Basing on this archival and stock material we form touristic product – «Dinner party in an estate». As a result of a reconstruction of dinner menu of a landlord living here at the turn of XVIII–XIX centuries lively atmosphere is created in estate. Thereby visitors can touch the cultural and historical treasures of ages gone by. Science workers, developing and introducing this kind of programs to the daily work, select associate partners are ready to realize requirements of museum ethics. Creation of authentic cultural product is the main task of new museum projects in a field of the gastronomic tourism. This is a vivid example of organization of tourist services programs based on intangible cultural heritage, which has come down to us through the centuries.

First discovered in 1993, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been one of the hottest research areas over the past two decades. Oftentimes, miRNAs levels are found to be dysregulated in cancer patients. The potential use of miRNAs in cancer therapies is an emerging and promising field, with research finding miRNAs to play a role in cancer initiation, tumor growth, and metastasis. Therefore, miRNAs could become an integral part from cancer diagnosis to treatment in future. This review aims to examine current novel research work on the potential roles of miRNAs in cancer therapies, while also discussing several current challenges and needed future research.

Economic Work

To what extent and how does economic work relate to life satisfaction? Over the past century, work or a job has become crucial to gaining a livelihood. Writers have also suggested that (at least some proportion of) individuals also have life goals or “life themes” that are central to their life fulfillment. This chapter explores the philosophical origins of these ideas and considers the (usually survey-based) research that attempts to sort out these complex issues. Integrating ideas from labor economics and social philosophy, it explores patterns in the historical survey data for the US, and presents reflections on why and for whom work matters, how it might and ought to relate to life satisfaction, and how one might ideally measure these links. The chapter also discusses an expanded role for education, and closes by outlining specific questions for future research on this topic.
