In this paper, we explore the active production of difference (as lacking) through the School dsp-7lp Vulnerability Index and the School Inclusion Law in Chile.Through a diffractive reading, we present the contradiction between these two policies.While discriminatory knowledge about school subjects is produced in the School Vulnerability Index as t
Spacecraft component detection is essential for space missions, such as for rendezvous and on-orbit assembly.Traditional intelligent detection algorithms suffer from drawbacks related to high computational burden, and are not applicable for on-board use.This paper proposes a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based lightweight algorithm for spacecr
The relationship, on a global basis, between the amount of N fixed by chemical, biological or atmospheric processes entering the terrestrial biosphere, and the total emission of nitrous oxide (N2O), has been re-examined, using known global atmospheric removal rates and concentration growth of N2O as a proxy for overall emissions.For both the pre-in
