DEAD SHRIMP BLUES: A GLOBAL ASSESSMENT OF EXTINCTION RISK IN FRESHWATER SHRIMPS (CRUSTACEA: DECAPODA: CARIDEA).

Dead shrimp blues: a global assessment of extinction risk in freshwater shrimps (Crustacea: Decapoda: Caridea).

We present the first global assessment of extinction risk for a major group of freshwater invertebrates, caridean shrimps.The risk of Accessory extinction for all 763 species was assessed using the IUCN Red List criteria that include geographic ranges, habitats, ecology and past and present threats.The Indo-Malayan region holds over half of global

A Transfer Learning for Line-Based Portrait Sketch

This paper presents a transfer learning-based framework that produces line-based portrait sketch images from portraits.The proposed framework produces sketch images using a GAN architecture, which is trained through a pseudo-sketch image Sets dataset.The pseudo-sketch image dataset is constructed from a single artist-created portrait sketch using a
