Learning Trajectory Distributions for Assisted Teleoperation and Path Planning.

Several approaches have been proposed to assist humans in co-manipulation and teleoperation tasks given demonstrated trajectories. However, these approaches are not applicable when the demonstrations are suboptimal or when the generalization capabilities of the learned models cannot cope with the changes in the environment. Nevertheless, in real co-manipulation and teleoperation tasks, the original demonstrations will often be suboptimal and a learning system must be able to cope with new situations.

The sibling species Leptidea juvernica and L. sinapis (Lepidoptera, Pieridae) in the Balkan Peninsula: ecology, genetic structure, and morphological variation.

The wood white butterfly Leptidea sinapis and its more recently discovered sibling species L. reali and L. juvernica have emerged as a model system for studying the speciation and evolution of cryptic species, as well as their ecological interactions in conditions of sympatry.

Bacteriostatic and biological stimulation effect of Mepitel on experimental burns on the skin of rats.

This study was conducted on 200 white Wistar rats weighing about 200 g each. The animals were divided into two equal groups--an experimental one, with Mepitel (SCA Mölnlycke) dressings, and a control group with cotton gauze dressings. Microbiological and histological examinations and measurements of the wounds made on the 3rd, 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th days after the 3rd-degree heat burn was inflicted using the standard method.
