Systematically differentiating parametric discontinuities

Artificial discontinuities of single-parametric Gröbner bases

Artificial discontinuity is a kind of singularity at a parametric point in computing the Gröbner basis of a specialized parametric ideal w.r.t. a certain term order. When it occurs, though parameters change continuously at the point and the properties of the parametric ideal have no sudden changes, the Gröbner basis will still have a jump at the parametric point. This phenomenon can cause insta...

Systematically Differentiating Functions for Alternatively Spliced Isoforms through Integrating RNA-seq Data

Integrating large-scale functional genomic data has significantly accelerated our understanding of gene functions. However, no algorithm has been developed to differentiate functions for isoforms of the same gene using high-throughput genomic data. This is because standard supervised learning requires 'ground-truth' functional annotations, which are lacking at the isoform level. To address this...

Building Class Diagrams Systematically

The class diagram has become more important since the object-oriented paradigm has acquired more acceptance. This importance has been translated also in the new field of web engineering. However, in a lot of cases, it is not easy to get the best class diagram in a problem. For this reason, it is necessary to offer systematic processes (as cheaper and easier as possible) to give a suitable refer...

Systems, Systematically Speaking

Approaching physician recruitment systematically.

Physician recruitment has become increasingly competitive. Organizations that recruit physicians need to establish a systematic recruitment approach that includes determining the organization's recruitment objectives, using various recruiting sources, assessing the skills and "fit" of all candidates, explaining the benefits to candidates early in the process, checking references carefully, and ...
