The Strand Symmetric Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
Important special cases of strand symmetric Markov models are the groupbased phylogenetic models including the Jukes-Cantor model and the Kimura 2 and 3 parameter models. The general strand symmetric model or in this chapter just the strand symmetric model (SSM) has only these eight equalities of probabilities in the transition matrices and no further restriction on the transition probabilities. Thus, for each edge in the corresponding phylogenetic model, there are 6 free parameters. For the standard group-based models (i.e. Jukes-Cantor and Kimura), the transition matrices and the entire parametrization can be simultaneously diagonalized by means of the Fourier transform of the group Z2 × Z2 [2, 6]. Besides the practical uses of the Fourier transform for group based models (see for example [4]), this diagonalization of the group-based models makes it possible to compute phylogenetic invariants for these models, by reducing

Tying Up Loose Strands: Defining Equations of the Strand Symmetric Model
The strand symmetric model is a phylogenetic model designed to reflect the symmetry inherent in the double-stranded structure of DNA. We show that the set of known phylogenetic invariants for the general strand symmetric model of the three leaf claw tree entirely defines the ideal. This knowledge allows one to determine the vanishing ideal of the general strand symmetric model of any trivalent ...
متن کاملBuckling Behaviors of Symmetric and Antisymmetric Functionally Graded Beams
The present study investigates buckling characteristics of both nonlinear symmetric power and sigmoid functionally graded (FG) beams. The volume fractions of metal and ceramic are assumed to be distributed through a beam thickness by the sigmoid-law distribution (S-FGM), and the symmetric power function (SP-FGM). These functions have smooth variation of properties across the boundary rather tha...

The purpose of this study is to develop a mathematical model for studying the magnetic field effect on blood flow through an axially non-symmetric but radially symmetric atherosclerotic artery. Herschel-Bulkley equation has been taken to represent the non-Newtonian character of blood. The response of magnetic field, stenosis height, shape parameter on velocity, volumetric flow rate in stenotic ...
متن کاملA Finite Element Model for Simulating Flow around a Well with Helically Symmetric Perforations
In a perforated well, fluids enter the wellbore through array of perforation tunnels. These perforations are typically distributed in a helical pattern around the wellbore. Available numerical models to simulate production flow into cased-and-perforated vertical wells have complicated boundary conditions or suffer from high computational costs. This paper presents a simple and at the same time ...

Radiotherapy using various beams is one of the methods for treating cancer, Hadrons used to treat cancers that are near critical organs. The most important part of the cell that is damage by ionizing radiation is DNA. In this study, damages induced in the genetic material of living cells (DNA) defined by the atomic model from the protein data bank (PDB) have been studied by radiati...
