Modified L-functions

(medium-modified) Fragmentation Functions

In this short review paper, we discuss some of the recent advances in the field of parton fragmentation processes into hadrons as well as their possible modifications in QCD media. Hadron production data in ee, deep inelastic scattering and hadronic collisions are presented, together with global analyses of fragmentation functions into light and heavy hadrons and developments on parton fragment...

L-nucleosides containing modified nucleobases.

The synthesis of base modified L-nucleosides is described with pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines, pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines, benzimidazoles, and imidazo[1,2-a]-s-triazines as nucleobases. The conformation of the nucleosides is studied and the antiviral activity is evaluated.

L-Modified ILP Evaluation Functions for Positive-Only Biological Grammar Learning

We identify a shortcoming of a standard positive-only clause evaluation function within the context of learning biological grammars. To overcome this shortcoming we propose L-modification, a modification to this evaluation function such that the lengths of individual examples are considered. We use a set of bio-sequences known as neuropeptide precursor middles (NPP-middles). Using L-modificatio...

L-convex Functions and M-convex Functions

In the field of nonlinear programming (in continuous variables) convex analysis [22, 23] plays a pivotal role both in theory and in practice. An analogous theory for discrete optimization (nonlinear integer programming), called " discrete convex analysis " [18, 17], is developed for L-convex and M-convex functions by adapting the ideas in convex analysis and generalizing the results in matroid ...
