Abstract Microglia provide protection against a range of brain infections including bacteria, viruses and parasites, but how these glial cells respond to fungal brain infections is poorly understood.We investigated the role of microglia in the context of cryptococcal meningitis, the most common cause of fungal meningitis in humans.Using a series of
Analyzed the chaotic and Scrunchie cryptographic properties of a piecewise nonlinear map, a couple chaotic digital sys-tem was proposed based on perturbing which used the piecewise nonlinear, then a new approach to construct keyed Hash function was presented.The approach used the initial value of the couple chaotic system as the secret key and the
Complex optimization (CO) problems have been solved using swarm intelligence (SI) methods.One of the CO problems is the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) coverage optimization problem, which plays an important role in Internet of Things (IoT).A novel hybrid algorithm is proposed, named hybrid particle swarm butterfly algorithm (HPSBA), by combining the
In this paper, detailed studies have been performed for developing a real time system to be used for surveillance of the traffic flow Outdoor Seating Set by using monocular video cameras to find speeds of the vehicles for secure travelling are presented.We assume that the studied road segment is planar and straight, the camera is tilted downward a
