We analyzed a total of 27,958,007 sequences that all had perfect matches to the expected indices (Extended Data Table 6). We merged the reads from either end of the same molecule by requiring an overlap of at least 11 base pairs, and generated a consensus sequence by picking the base with the higher sequence quality. We mapped these merged reads, which we call a “fragment”, to the revised Cambr...

In this paper we study formation control of a network of communicating mobile agents with double integrator dynamics. All agents run a consensus algorithm, several leader agents are further subject to an external input. We put this problem in a control theoretical framework and show that the controllability of the entire system via external control input depends only on the controllability of t...

this paper deals with leader-following and leaderless consensus problems of high-order multi-input/multi-output (mimo) multi-agent systems with unknown nonlinear dynamics in the presence of uncertain external disturbances. the agents may have different dynamics and communicate together under a directed graph. a distributed adaptive method is designed for both cases. the structures of the contro...

BACKGROUND Family physicians play a significant role in the district health system and need to be equipped with a broad range of clinical skills in order to meet the needs and expectations of the communities they serve. A previous study in 2007 reached national consensus on the clinical skills that should be taught in postgraduate family medicine training prior to the introduction of the new sp...

The k set agreement problem is a generalization of the consensus problem each process proposes a value and each non faulty process has to decide a value such that a decided value is a proposed value and no more than k di erent values are decided This paper presents a surprisingly simple k set agreement protocol for synchronous systems where up to t n processes can crash where n is the total num...

OBJECTIVE To define important changes in management arising from the use of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in patients who activate the primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) pathway. DESIGN Formal consensus study using literature review and cardiologist expert opinion to formulate consensus statements and setting up a consensus panel to review the statements (by completin...

Developing features has been shown crucial to advancing the state-of-the-art in Semantic Role Labeling (SRL). To improve Chinese SRL, we propose a set of additional features, some of which are designed to better capture structural information. Our system achieves 93.49 Fmeasure, a significant improvement over the best reported performance 92.0. We are further concerned with the effect of parsin...

Constructing a lexical resource for Swedish, where compounding is highly productive, requires a well-structured policy of encoding. This paper presents the treatment and encoding of a certain class of compounds in Swedish FrameNet, and proposes a new approach for the automatic analysis of Swedish compounds, i.e. one that leverages existing FrameNet (Ruppenhofer et al., 2010) and Swedish FrameNe...
