Les aqueducs romains de Lyon et d’ailleurs : nouveaux repères by Aldo Borlenghi, Catherine Coquidé

“…Much remains to be discovered in order to track water systems, to understand how they operate and how other water resources are exploited.Some topics, such as catchment areas, flow characterisation, dates of abandonment or the Roman legal framework of use and local regulation, so far remain beyond reach or unevenly documented.The aim of this book is to outline the current state of knowledge on one of the largest water networks of its time and to pave the way for future research.…”

Analysis on the Influence Degree of Deformation Control Factors of Deep-Buried Roadway’s Fractured Surrounding Rock Using Orthogonal Design by Ke Li, Weijian Yu, Youlin Xu, Ze Zhou, Mengtang Xu, Wei Liang

“…The two sidewalls’ development and roof fractures are mainly tangential, and the original rock state appears only beyond 6.3∼8.2 m. The length of bolts, the row distance between bolts, the length of cables, and the row distance of U-shaped steel were selected as control factors in the multi-index orthogonal design, and roadway’s deformation values were taken as the test indexes. …”

Predicting breast cancer recurrence using deep learning by Deepa Kumari, Mutyala Venkata Sai Subhash Naidu, Subhrakanta Panda, Jabez Christopher

“…Moreover, the Hybrid ResNet+SVM and ResNet+RF models demonstrated impressive performance in multi-classifying recurrence into different time intervals, achieving 92% accuracy in predicting recurrence within 2 years, between 2 to 4 years, and beyond 4 years. The study also provides a detailed analysis of model performance through training versus validation accuracy graphs and a comparison with existing approaches, demonstrating the superiority of the proposed framework in terms of diagnostic, prognostic, and recurrence time predictions. …”

Isolating the net effect of multiple government interventions with an extended Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Recovered (SEIR) framework: empirical evidence from the second wave of... by Jie Liu, Boya Gao, Helen Xiaohui Bao, Zhenwu Shi

“…Linking the COVID-19 epidemiological dynamics with the implementation timing of government interventions, we detected that the earlier implementation of some specific government interventions (including targeted partial lockdown, tracing, tracking and 14-day centralised quarantining close contacts) achieved the strongest and most timely effect on controlling COVID-19, especially at the early period of local outbreak.Conclusions These findings provide important scientific information for decisions regarding which and when government interventions should be implemented to fight against COVID-19 in China and beyond. The proposed analytical framework is useful for policy-making in future endemic and pandemic as well.…”
