Karst groundwater is highly vulnerable to contamination, which urges better land use zoning.This paper proposes a new approach, called COCKPIT-PLUS, to minimize groundwater contamination within cockpit karst regions.The method employed four parameters: P (the existence of ponor/swallow hole), L (lineament density), U (sinking stream to an undergrou
In this work we design a narrative understanding tool Text2ALM.This tool uses an action language tzora feather light scooter ALM to perform inferences on complex interactions of events described in narratives.The methodology used to implement the Text2ALM system was originally outlined by Lierler, Inclezan, and Gelfond (2017) via a manual process o
Early-stage laryngeal cancer (T1-T2) is commonly treated with organ-preserving techniques such as transoral laser microsurgery (TOLMS) or radiation therapy (RT), both providing comparable oncological outcomes but differing in functional results.Local recurrence occurs in approximately 10% of cases, making salvage surgery a crucial therapeutic optio
The incidence of foodborne outbreaks and product recalls is on the rise.The ability of the pathogen to adapt and survive under stressful environments of food processing and the host gastrointestinal tract may contribute to increasing foodborne illnesses.In the host, multiple factors such as bacteriolytic enzymes, acidic pH, bile, resident microflor
