We present an approximate nonsmooth algorithm to solve a minimization problem, in which the objective function is the sum of a maximum eigenvalue function of matrices and a convex function.The essential idea to solve the optimization problem in this paper is similar to the thought of proximal bundle method, but the difference Ramekin is that we cho
Breakdown development in cover beds, and landscape features induced by intrastratal gypsum karst
Intrastratal karst is by far the predominant gypsum karst type.Its development may begin in deep-seated settings within rocks already buried by younger strata, and it proceeds increasingly rapidly as uplift brings gypsum sequences into progressively shallower positions.Such development commonly occurs under confined (artesian) hydrogeological condi
Testing the effectiveness of an international conservation agreement: marketplace forensics and CITES caviar trade regulation.
BACKGROUND: The international wildlife trade is a key threat to biodiversity.Temporal genetic marketplace monitoring can determine if wildlife trade regulation efforts such as the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) are succeeding.Protected under CITES effective 1997, sturgeons and paddlefishes, the producers of black ca
The Defense of the Adoption of Critical Social Theory as a Framework for African Universities
With coloniality, thought itself became discriminatory and was categorized into racial forms.That discrimination and categorization of thought gave rise to the idea that philosophy itself must be differentially categorized as either Western, Eastern, or African as if thought has a race and geographic location.The issue at this age is that those cat
Visualizing GPR Data Using Spatial-Subband Configuration
In ground penetrating radar (GPR) applications, base-scale analysis can be a powerful tool to support data analysis and to build a consensus in data interpretation.In this paper, a study Mini Dress using the spatial-subband as a characterizing method to visualize structure attributes of GPR is presented.A dynamic framework is proposed to support th
