The Centipede Genus Arthrorhabdus Pocock, 1891, In The Western Hemisphere: Potential Occurrence Of A. Pygmaeus (Pocock, 1895) In Belize (Scolopendromorpha: Scolopendridae: Scolopendrinae), Rowland M. Shelley, Amazonas Chagas-Júnior

Western North American Naturalist

The scolopendrid centipede genus Arthrorhabdus Pocock, 1891, comprises 6 species: A. formosus Pocock, 1891, the type species, occurring in southern Africa (Mpumalanga, Free State, Western and Northern Cape Provinces, South Africa, and southern Namibia); A. somalus Manfredi, 1933, in Somalia and Yemen; A. jonesii Verhoeff, 1938, from southern India (Kerala Province); A. mjobergi Kraepelin, 1916, and A. paucispinus Koch, 1984, in Australia (Western and South Australia, Northern Territory, and Queensland); and A. pygmaeus (Pocock, 1895), in the south central and southwestern United States, Mexico, and, potentially, Belize. This sporadic occurrence suggests that the genus is polyphyletic, and the monotypic synonym, …

Life Cycle Of The Net-Spinning Caddisfly, Cheumatopsyche Analis (Banks) (Trichoptera: Hydropsychidae), In Two Small Front Range Urban Streams, Fort Collins, Colorado, Robert E. Zuellig, Boris C. Kondratieff, Richard A. Thorp

Western North American Naturalist

The life cycle of Cheumatopsyche analis (Banks) is described from 2 urban streams located in north central Colorado. Larvae were collected every 15 days during spring, summer, and fall and every 30 days in winter from August 1999 through August 2000. A total of 8652 larvae were collected, and head capsules were measured to the nearest 0.01 mm. The life cycle of C. analis at both sites appears to be partially bivoltine with a long, almost continuous period of recruitment after peak emergence in June. Some offspring from the early generation that emerges in May probably emerge as adults in …

Evaluating The Geographic Distribution Of Plants In Utah From The Atlas Of Vascular Plants Of Utah, R. Douglas Ramsey, Leila Shultz

Western North American Naturalist

Locations of 73,219 vascular plant vouchers representing 2438 species were digitized from the Atlas of the Vascular Plants of Utah (Albee et al. 1988). Source maps consist of 1:6,000,000-scale shaded relief maps of Utah with points representing collection locations by species. Location points, representing 1 or more specimens, were transposed onto these maps from the approximately 400,000 herbarium records of 3 major universities and federal land management agencies. These source maps were digitized into an ARC/Info^TM database in order to reproduce the atlas in digital form. Analysis of all locations revealed a mapping bias of the original authors to …

Resolution Scaling In Noncontact Scanning Impedance Imaging, Benjamin C. Green, Tao Shang, Jacey C. Morine, Hongze Liu, Stephen M. Schultz, Travis E. Oliphant, Aaron R. Hawkins

Faculty Publications

Noncontact scanning impedance imaging has been presented as a method to provide high resolution, high contrast images for a variety of material systems. This technique combines electrical impedance measurements with very high resolution scanning. This article reports on efforts to scale this technique down to the very important single micron range and reveals measurements for both thick and thin samples with a measured minimum resolution below 30 µm. A design for a shielded impedance probe applicable to this process is outlined and probes of several different sizes were made and tested. Fabrication of these impedance probes is explained and a …

A Vascular Plant Inventory Of Jay B. Starkey Wilderness Park, Pasco County, Florida, Emily Ferguson

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Jay B. Starkey Wilderness Park, located in southwestern Pasco County, Florida, contains nearly 7,689.06 hectares (19,000 acres) and includes 18 natural communities. A floristic inventory was conducted on approximately 404.69 hectares (1,000 acres) within Jay B. Starkey Wilderness Park which included 11 community types. A comparison of those 11 communities in the study area with the rest of the park shows that the dominant community types do occur within the study site, making it representative of the entire park. The objective of this study conducted from May 2003 to October 2004 was to compile a list of the vascular plant …

Application Of Support Vector Machines And Neural Networks In Digital Mammography: A Comparative Study, Nivedita V. Candade

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Microcalcification (MC) detection is an important component of breast cancer diagnosis. However, visual analysis of mammograms is a difficult task for radiologists. Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) technology helps in identifying lesions and assists the radiologist in making his final decision.

This work is a part of a CAD project carried out at the Imaging Science Research Division (ISRD), Digital Medical Imaging Program, Moffitt Cancer Research Center, Tampa, FL. A CAD system had been previously developed to perform the following tasks: (a) pre-processing, (b) segmentation and (c) feature extraction of mammogram images. Ten features covering spatial, and morphological domains were extracted …

Incremental Genetic K-Means Algorithm And Its Application In Gene Expression Data Analysis, Yi Lu, Shiyong Lu, Farhad Fotouhi, Youping Deng, Susan J. Brown

Faculty Publications

Background

In recent years, clustering algorithms have been effectively applied in molecular biology for gene expression data analysis. With the help of clustering algorithms such as K-means, hierarchical clustering, SOM, etc, genes are partitioned into groups based on the similarity between their expression profiles. In this way, functionally related genes are identified. As the amount of laboratory data in molecular biology grows exponentially each year due to advanced technologies such as Microarray, new efficient and effective methods for clustering must be developed to process this growing amount of biological data.

Results

In this paper, we propose a new clustering algorithm, …
