HOW IMMUNOCONTRACEPTION CAN CONTRIBUTE TO ELEPHANT MANAGEMENT IN SMALL, ENCLOSED RESERVES: MUNYAWANA POPULATION AS A CASE STUDY.

How immunocontraception can contribute to elephant management in small, enclosed reserves: Munyawana population as a case study.

Immunocontraception has been widely used as a management tool to reduce population growth in captive as well as wild populations of various fauna.We model the use of an individual-based rotational immunocontraception plan on a wild elephant, Loxodonta africana, population and quantify the social and reproductive advantages of this method of impleme

Feature Map Compression for Video Coding for Machines Based on Receptive Block Based Principal Component Analysis

This paper presents a method to effectively compress the intermediate layer feature map of a convolutional neural network for the potential structures of Video Coding for Machines, which is an emerging technology for future machine consumption applications.Notably, most extant studies compress a single feature map and hence cannot entirely consider
