ESPERANZA WINDOW TRAPS FOR THE COLLECTION OF ANTHROPOPHILIC BLACKFLIES (DIPTERA: SIMULIIDAE) IN UGANDA AND TANZANIA.

Esperanza Window Traps for the collection of anthropophilic blackflies (Diptera: Simuliidae) in Uganda and Tanzania.

There is an increasing need to evaluate the impact of chemotherapeutic and vector-based interventions as onchocerciasis affected countries work towards eliminating the disease.The Esperanza Window Trap (EWT) provides a possible alternative to human landing collections (HLCs) for the collection of anthropophilic blackflies, yet it is not known wheth

A hybrid anomaly detection method for high dimensional data

Anomaly detection of high-dimensional data is a challenge because the sparsity of the data distribution caused Intermediate by high dimensionality hardly provides rich information distinguishing anomalous instances from normal instances.To address this, this article proposes an anomaly detection method combining an autoencoder and a sparse weighted
