Insect pest control poses a global challenge, affecting public health, food safety, and the environment. Diseases transmitted by mosquitoes are expanding beyond tropical regions due to climate change. Agricultural pests further exacerbate economic lo...
In combinatorics, the inclusion–exclusion principle is a counting technique which generalizes the familiar method of obtaining the number of elements
We propose a novel method for template matching in unconstrained environments. Its essence is the Best-Buddies Similarity (BBS), a useful, robust, and parameter-free similarity measure between two sets of points. BBS is based on counting the number o...
The concept of "lost positions" is a recently introduced tool for counting the number of runs in words. We investigate the frequency of lost positions in prefixes of words. This leads to an algorithm that allows to show, using an extensive computer s...

This paper has been rendered obsolete by our newer eprint alg-geom/9411005 "Bott's formula and enumerative geometry", which is a considerably expanded version of the same paper, in spite of the change of titles. Please download alg-geom/9411005 ins...
In this advanced instructional laboratory, students explore complex detection systems and nondestructive assay techniques used in the field of nuclear physics. After setting up and calibrating a neutron detection system, students carry out timing and...
A simple tool for counting things and keeping track of numbers.
Confusion says 25% chance of happening but in my current run I've been counting and its been 75% chance. My cat has 6 luck, is higher luck causing the confusion chance to increase or something?...
We calculate the masses of the nucleons and deltas in twisted mass heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. We work to quadratic order in a power counting scheme in which we treat the lattice spacing and the quark masses to be of the same order. We...
This letter presents the solution to a counting problem, to the best of our knowledge not known in full generality, which can be mapped to both (i) ways to lace a $N$-holes-per-side shoe with $\ell$ shoestrings and (ii) a sum over the indexes of $2N$...
We use almost and nearly to refer to the progress of things, especially if we are measuring and counting things. In these examples, almost and nearly can both be used: … It’ll cost almost as much to repair …
Zero is the integer denoted 0 that, when used as a counting number, means that no objects are present. It is the only integer (and, in fact, the only real number) that is neither negative nor positive.

Edit - Well damn. EPS and revenue beat but guidance is king these days. Holding onto the calls at this point in case a miracle happens but counting the full 8k as a loss. Only down 1.7k on shares so f...
Recently, Avgustinovich, Kitaev, and Taranenko defined five types of $(k, \ell)-$crucial permutations, which are maximal permutations that do not contain an increasing subsequence of length $k$ or a decreasing subsequence of length $\ell$. Further, A...
