Expo-rational B-splines Expo-rational B-splines Expo-rational B-splines

A new type of B-spline the expo-rational B-spline is introduced. The heuristic motivation for its introduction comes from important similarities in several celebrated mathematical constructions originating in approximation theory, differential geometry and operator theory. The main result of the paper is the derivation of an Edgeworth and a steepest-descent/saddlepoint asymptotic expansion whic...

Augustus Desiré Waller (1856-1922).

The electrocardiograph is one of the most important instruments with which to examine the human heart and is in constant use all over the world, yet we doubt whether many physicians know who was the first man to demonstrate that the electrical response accompanying the movement of the human heart could easily be shown by a clinical application of a relatively simple instrument. In the early par...

AUGUSTUS: ab initio prediction of alternative transcripts

AUGUSTUS is a software tool for gene prediction in eukaryotes based on a Generalized Hidden Markov Model, a probabilistic model of a sequence and its gene structure. Like most existing gene finders, the first version of AUGUSTUS returned one transcript per predicted gene and ignored the phenomenon of alternative splicing. Herein, we present a WWW server for an extended version of AUGUSTUS that ...
