This paper mainly studies mixed integer linear programming (MILP)-based cryptanalysis on round-reduced NBC algorithm with generalized Feistel structure. First, each component of the is equivalently described by inequality equations, and propagation rules differential characteristics approximation are described, an automatic search model mode mask based MILP established, minimum number active S-...

The hypoeutectic aluminum alloy (AlSi10Mg) is a well-known candidate material used predominantly for its processability and inherent characteristics in metal-based additive manufacturing. Besides, transition metal carbide, such as niobium carbide (NbC), added to the AlSi10Mg, enhancing mechanical properties preferably wear resistance matrix. However, manufacturing, mixed powder’s flowability pr...

Body protective clothing and suits against NBC agents are playing vital role in the NBC defence during war and training scenarios. Hence, reviewing about the past, present and expected future development in this NBC protective clothing area is an important task. This review brings out a sequence related to the NBC protective clothing, their type, various materials available for the development ...

High resolution hydrographic observations of temperature and salinity are used to analyse the subsurface circulation along the coast of North Brazil, off the Amazon mouth, between 2 S and 6 N. Observations are presented from four cruises carried out in different periods of the year (March–May 1995, May–June 1999, July–August 2001 and October–November 1997). Numerical model outputs complement th...

Most existing GP regression algorithms assume a single generative model, leading to poor performance when data are nonstationary, i.e. generated from multiple switching processes. Existing methods for GP regression over non-stationary data include clustering and changepoint detection algorithms. However, these methods require significant computation, do not come with provable guarantees on corr...

Carbonic anhydrase enzymes (CAs) catalyse the reversible hydration of CO2 to H+ and HCO3- ions. This catalysis is proposed to be harnessed by acid/base transporters, to facilitate their transmembrane flux activity, either through direct protein-protein binding (a 'transport metabolon') or local functional interaction. Flux facilitation has previously been investigated by heterologous co-express...

Motivation: Recent CASP experiments have witnessed exciting progress on folding large-size nonhumongous proteins with the assistance of co-evolution based contact predictions. The success is however anecdotal due to the requirement of the contact prediction methods for the high volume of sequence homologs that are not available to most of the non-humongous protein targets. Development of effici...

BACKGROUND Detection of outbreaks is an important part of disease surveillance. Although many algorithms have been designed for detecting outbreaks, few have been specifically assessed against diseases that have distinct seasonal incidence patterns, such as those caused by vector-borne pathogens. METHODS We applied five previously reported outbreak detection algorithms to Ross River virus (RR...
