Filaments in creation's heart

The Forge Web Creations

A Tangible Environment for Animations Creations

Storytelling is an essential activity in the life of children. By listening or sharing their stories and ideasthey give meaning to their world and practice their communication skill. Even though the compute were already present in the infantile world, there is to get between the software developed for theirs and the ones that really give voice for this little uses. This paper presents the React...

Myosin binding protein-C activates thin filaments and inhibits thick filaments in heart muscle cells.

Myosin binding protein-C (MyBP-C) is a key regulatory protein in heart muscle, and mutations in the MYBPC3 gene are frequently associated with cardiomyopathy. However, the mechanism of action of MyBP-C remains poorly understood, and both activating and inhibitory effects of MyBP-C on contractility have been reported. To clarify the function of the regulatory N-terminal domains of MyBP-C, we det...

Deep Creations: Intellectual Property and the Automata

The rapid progress of deep neural network architectures is allowing both to automate the production of artworks and to extend the domain of creative expression. As such, it is opening new ground for professional and amateur artists alike. A major asset of these new computer processes is their capacity to derive, from a training phase, a generative model from which new artifacts can be produced....

Agent-based Modeling: Understanding Our Creations

The defining feature of agent-based models is precisely that fundamental social structures emerge from the interaction of individual agents. The shorthand for this is that the collective structures grow “from the bottom up.” As a result of research pioneered at SFI, there now exists an impressive— and rapidly growing—population of agent-based models, of coral reefs, ant colonies, bird flocks, f...
