Generalization of general helices and slant helices

In this work, we use the formal definition of $k$-slant helix cite{ali2} to obtain the intrinsic equations as well as the position vector for emph{slant-slant helices} which a generalization of emph{general helices} and emph{slant helices}. Also, we present some characterizations theorems for $k$-slant helices and derived, in general form, the intrinsic equations for such curves. Thereafter, fr...

A de novo designed template for generating conformation-specific antibodies that recognize alpha-helices in proteins.

The generation of antibodies directed toward the surface-exposed regions of a protein using synthetic peptides as immunogens representing surface loops and turns has been widely successful. However, peptides representing alpha-helical regions are typically unstructured in solution and unable to produce antibodies that recognize alpha-helices in native proteins. We describe a de novo designed pa...

Generalized Helices and Singular Points

In this paper, we define X-slant helix in Euclidean 3-space and we obtain helix, slant helix, clad and g-clad helix as special case of the X-slant helix. Then we study Darboux, tangential darboux developable surfaces and their singular points. Especially we show that the striction lines of these surfaces are singular locus of the surfaces.

MinkApp: Generating Spatio-temporal Summaries for Nature Conservation Volunteers

We describe preliminary work on generating contextualized text for nature conservation volunteers. This Natural Language Generation (NLG) differs from other ways of describing spatio-temporal data, in that it deals with abstractions on data across large geographical spaces (total projected area 20,600 km), as well as temporal trends across longer time frames (ranging from one week up to a year)...
