A well-developed body of research offers ways to measure the partisan advantages that result from legislative districting.Although useful to researchers and legal practitioners, those studies also suffer from theoretical, empirical, and legal limitations.In this essay, we review measures of partisan bias and methods for both simulating election res
Leader-Follower Formation Control of Uncertain USV Networks under Stochastic Disturbances
The robust adaptive leader-follower formation control of uncertain unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) subject to stochastic environmental loads is investigated in this paper.The stochastic additive noises are included in the kinematics which stands for the un-modeled dynamics and uncertainty.The disturbances induced by waves, wind and ocean currents
Hazard Assessment of Debris Flow Based on Infinite Irrelevance Method and Probabilistic Neural Network Coupling Model
Debris flow is one of the most harmful natural disasters, which seriously damages the ecological environment balance, human life safety and property loss.Therefore, it is necessary to predict and assess the hazard of debris flow.This paper proposes an effective model for predicting the hazard of debris flow, which is a coupled model based on the In
On the Influence of Translations of Religious and Philosophical Texts of Buddhism on the Literature and Art of Medieval China
The era of the Tang dynasty (618-907) was a period of great flourishing of all aspects of Chinese culture, when changes covered the most diverse spheres of philosophy, art and literature.The article examines the role played in this cultural transformation by translations from Sanskrit into Chinese of the religious and philosophical texts of Indian
Postischemic Anhedonia Associated with Neurodegenerative Changes in the Hippocampal Dentate Gyrus of Rats
T-shirts Poststroke depression is one of the major symptoms observed in the chronic stage of brain stroke such as cerebral ischemia.Its pathophysiological mechanisms, however, are not well understood.Using the transient right middle cerebral artery occlusion- (MCAO-, 90 min) operated rats as an ischemia model in this study, we first observed that a
