- Abstract:
- ... A supervised similarity measure for Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene expressions is developed which can capture the gene similarity when multiple types of experimental conditions like cell cycle, heat shock are available for all the genes. The measure is called Weighted Pearson correlation (WPC), where the weights are systematically determined for each type of experiment by maximizing the positive pr ...

- Abstract:
- ... In contrast to the rapid development of the horse husbandry in China, the ability of horse veterinarians to diagnose diseases has not been improved and only a few domain experts have considerable expertise. At present, many expert systems have been developed for diseases diagnosis, but few for horse diseases diagnosis have been studied in depth. This paper presents the design and development of a ...

- Abstract:
- ... The function of biological macromolecules involves large-scale conformational dynamics spanning multiple time scales, from microseconds to seconds. Such conformational motions, which may involve whole domains or subunits of a protein, play a key role in allosteric regulation. There is an urgent need for experimental methods to probe the fastest of these motions. Single-molecule fluorescence experi ...

An evolutionary algorithm for self-tuning systems is proposed to tune the optimal control settings in order to achieve the best overall performance to control accurately the volume of natural gasoline in a storage tank. For high-level optimization, a flexible iterative technique base ...

- Abstract:
- ... Controlling the unit-cell topology of microlattice structures can enable the customization of effective anisotropic material properties. A wide range of properties can be obtained by varying connectivity within the unit cell, which then can be further used to optimize structures specific to applications. A methodology for a systematic generation of microlattice structures is presented that focuses ...

- Abstract:

In boreal Alaska, the conventional forest management paradigm has focused on the production of large-dimension timber, particularly white spruce (Picea glauca). However, energy generation and heating from wood is increas ...

The MOHEA was tested for modelling at once two cyanobacteria populations at one lake site, same population in two different lakes and same population at three different sites of one lake. All experiments with MOHEA utiliz ...

Most existing methods define the intersections as locations where the road users change their moving directions and identify the intersections from GPS traces through analyzing the road users’ turning behaviors. However, these methods suffer from finding an appropriate threshol ...

It addresses three issues. One is that a prejudgment strategy should be developed that can determine whether it is suitable to perform DA on the fault data. Second, it should solve the dependence problem of faulty variab ...

- Abstract:

Vaccines are different from most medicines in that they are administered to large and mostly healthy populations including infants and children, so there is a low tolerance for potential risks or side-effects. In addition, the long-term benefits of immunisation in reducing or eliminating infectious diseases may induce complacency due to the absence of cases. However, as demonstrated in recent meas ...

However, the high maintenance costs of the traditional expansion tree lead to a sharp efficiency decrease. In this paper, we propose a line graph-based continuous ra ...
