USING UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES IN RECOGNIZING TERRAIN ANOMALIES ENCOUNTERED IN THE GAS PIPELINE RIGHT-OF-WAY (ROW) by Jarosław KOZUBA, Marek MARCISZ, Sebastian RZYDZIK, Marcin PASZKUTA

“…The flight specification was based on the main parameters with the following assumptions: taking only perpendicular (nadir) RGB photographs, flight altitude 120 m AGL, strip width 160 m, GSD ≤0.04 m and overlap ≥83%. The analysis of the photographic material obtained made it possible to correct the catalog of anomalies defined previously, since the recognition of some objects is very difficult, being usually below the orthophotomap resolution. …”

Interpreting the CTCF-mediated sequence grammar of genome folding with AkitaV2. by Paulina N Smaruj, Fahad Kamulegeya, David R Kelley, Geoffrey Fudenberg

“…CTCF (CCCTC-binding factor) is a key architectural protein that binds specific DNA sites, halts cohesin-mediated loop extrusion, and enables long-range chromatin interactions. There are hundreds of thousands of annotated CTCF-binding sites in mammalian genomes; disruptions of some result in distinct phenotypes, while others have no visible effect. …”

How fast are viruses spreading in the wild? by Simon Dellicour, Paul Bastide, Pauline Rocu, Denis Fargette, Olivier J Hardy, Marc A Suchard, Stéphane Guindon, Philippe Lemey

“…We then use these 2 dispersal metrics to compare the dispersal pattern and capacity of various viruses spreading in animal populations. Our comparative analysis reveals a broad range of IBD patterns and diffusion coefficients mostly reflecting the dispersal capacity of the main infected host species but also, in some cases, the likely signature of rapid and/or long-distance dispersal events driven by human-mediated movements through animal trade. …”
