US-Soviet space research: Moves for joint programme

Indo Swiss Joint Research Programme ( Isjrp ) Joint Research Project Final

The brain consists of an enormous number of nerve cells which are interconnected in complex neural circuits. A complete understanding of how an individual neural circuit is constructed during development is a necessary first step in understanding the complex circuitry of the brain. The first level of the olfactory system of the fruitfly Drosophila is one of the most thoroughly investigated neur...

Soviet Program for Medical Research **†

At the 20th Congress of the Communist party of the Soviet Union, held in Moscow in February, 1956, the sixth five-year plan was presented and accepted. Such plans extend into all walks of life in the U.S.S.R. but particularly in fields of applied science, not the least of which has been the program for work in the medical sciences. This pattern is characteristic of the Soviet Union, and one can...

Intracluster Moves for Constrained Discrete-Space MCMC

This paper addresses the problem of sampling from binary distributions with constraints. In particular, it proposes an MCMC method to draw samples from a distribution of the set of all states at a specified distance from some reference state. For example, when the reference state is the vector of zeros, the algorithm can draw samples from a binary distribution with a constraint on the number of...
