Cancer prediction tools are widely available to clinicians, and the data retrieved from these tools can assist with patient counseling sessions on risk, prognosis, treatment, and recurrence. Current tools are able to synthesize data in a concise, unbiased, and evidence-based method, allowing patients to make better-informed decisions about their treatment options. As useful as these tools can b...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that control gene expression at the posttranscriptional level through complementary base pairing with the target mRNA, leading to mRNA degradation and blocking translation process. Any dysfunctions of these small regulatory molecules have been linked with the development and progression of several diseases. Therefore, it is necessary to reliably pred...

the strength of concrete is a function of the proportions of the constituent materials, namely, cement, water, fine and coarse aggregates. the conventional methods used to determine the mix proportions that will yield the desired strength, are laborious, time consuming and expensive. in this paper, a mathematical method based on modified regression theory is formulated for the prediction of con...

The analysis of structural variants, in particular of copy-number variations (CNVs), has proven valuable in unraveling the genetic basis of human diseases. Hence, a large number of algorithms have been developed for the detection of CNVs in SNP array signal intensity data. Using the European and African HapMap trio data, we undertook a comparative evaluation of six commonly used CNV detection s...

This study was conducted to investigate the prediction of growth performance using linear regression and artificial neural network (ANN) in broiler chicken. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are powerful tools for modeling systems in a wide range of applications. The ANN model with a back propagation algorithm successfully learned the relationship between the inputs of metabolizable energy (kca...

UNLABELLED The AllergenPro database has developed a web-based system that will provide information about allergen in microbes, animals and plants. The database has three major parts and functions:(i) database list; (ii) allergen search; and (iii) allergenicity prediction. The database contains 2,434 allergens related information readily available in the database such as on allergens in rice mic...
