Toxic or flammable gas release accident will possible form dangerous vapor cloud, which is of significant concerns to industrial safety and social security. In the current stage, several models are available for simulating and predicting the dispersion of hazardous gases to the surrounding environment, but these models all require information about the release source, for example, the release r...

The Pharmacophore Alignment Search Tool (PhAST) is a string-based approach to virtual screening. Molecules are represented by linear sequences which describe their respective pattern of interaction possibilities. The problem of molecule linearization is tackled by applying Minimum Volume Embedding in combination with a Diffusion Kernel to the molecular graph [1,2]. Linear representations are co...

This paper describes a novel collaborative machine translation (MT) plus post-editing system called PHAST (Public Health Automatic System for Translation, phastsystem.org), tailored for use in producing multilingual education materials for public health. Its collaborative features highlight a new approach in public health informatics: sharing limited bilingual translation resources via a groupw...

A consequence analysis was performed in one of the gas refineries in Iran to investigate the risks andpotential losses resulted from accidents. Specifically, the consequences of an explosion in LPGspherical tanks were modeled using PHAST and MATLAB software. In this paper, three methods ofcalculation of PHAST software TNT, multi-energy, and BST were used. The results showed th...

Research on micro-level assessment of the changes of socio-economic status following health interventions is very scarce. The use of household asset data to determine wealth indices is a common procedure for estimating socio-economic position in resource poor settings. In such settings information about income is usually lacking, and the collection of individual consumption or expenditure data ...

Screening for lysogenic lactobacilli in rat fecal samples has identified Lactobacillus murinus EF-1. Whole-genome sequencing revealed a 2.30-Mb draft genome with 39.6% G+C content and 2,196 open reading frames. PHAST analysis identified three intact prophages of 26.1 kb, 25.4 kb, and 49.6 kb in size.
