The location, size, and number of synapses critically influence the specificity and strength of neural connections. In axons, synaptic vesicle (SV) and active zone (AZ) proteins are transported by molecular motors and accumulate at discrete presynaptic loci. Little is known about the mechanisms coordinating presynaptic protein transport and deposition to achieve proper distribution of synaptic ...

In Statistical quality control a very widely used measure is average run length (ARL) which may be worked out by different methods like integral equation, approximations, and Monte Carlo simulations. The ARL measure and the other related measures are of major significance in every type of production process. An omission in its computation (and hence its related measures such as extra quadratic ...

Among the various procedures used to detect potential changes in a stochastic process the moving sum algorithms are very popular due to their intuitive appeal and good statistical performance. One of the important design parameters of a change detection algorithm is the expected interval between false positives, also known as the average run length (ARL). Computation of the ARL usually involves...

Abstract A tornado outbreak occurred across the Southeast United States on 13–14 April 2019, during Verification of Origins Rotation in Tornadoes Experiment–Southeast (VORTEX-SE) Meso18-19 experiment. Among most noteworthy events was a pair large tornadoes Monroe County, Mississippi, near Columbus Air Force Base (GWX) Weather Surveillance Radar–1988 Doppler (WSR-88D). The second tornado, Greenw...

This article proposes methods for monitoring Weibull processes when data collection is restricted to one observation per sampling period. Because the Weibull distribution is an asymmetric distribution, it is not appropriate to apply normal-based individuals-movingrange charts to Weibull data. A transformation of Weibull to approximate normality prior to applying normal-based methods has been su...

ARL developed computer models and modeling techniques based on the Method of Moments, and has used them for some time to study electrostatic fields associated with targets, terrain clutter, and sensors of interest. Recent extensions to these unique ARL capabilities allow some dynamic conditions to be modeled as a time series of quasi-static models. These new techniques have enabled us to study ...

The ADP-ribosylation factor-like (Arl) family of small G proteins are involved in the regulation of diverse cellular processes. Arl2 does not appear to be membrane localized and has been implicated as a regulator of microtubule dynamics. The downstream effector for Arl2, Binder of Arl 2 (BART) has no known function but, together with Arl2, can enter mitochondria and bind the adenine nucleotide ...
