Healthcare is adopting information technology as an integral part of clinical workflows and processes themselves. This places substantial demands upon the performance and behavior of such networks, especially as the paper records systems are retired, leading to the fundamental attributes of clinical-grade networks

Likelihood applications have become a central approach for molecular evolutionary analyses since the first computationally tractable treatment two decades ago. Although Felsenstein's original pruning algorithm makes likelihood calculations feasible, it is usually possible to take advantage of repetitive structure present in the data to arrive at even greater computational reductions. In particu...

We prove an explicit combinatorial formula for the structure constants of the Grothendieck ring of a Grassmann variety with respect to its basis of Schubert structure sheaves. We furthermore relate K-theory of Grassmannians to a bialgebra of stable Grothendieck polynomials, which is a K-theory parallel of the ring of symmetric functions.

The β-numeration, born with the works of Rényi and Parry, provides a generalization of the notions of integers, decimal numbers and rational numbers by expanding real numbers in base β, where β > 1 is not an integer. One of the main differences with the case of numeration in integral base is that the sets which play the role of integers, decimal numbers and rational numbers in base β are not st...

Normal conditional expectations E : M → N ⊆ M of finite index on von Neumann algebras M with discrete center are investigated to find an estimate for the minimal number of generators of M as a Hilbert N-module. Analyzing the case of M being finite type I with discrete center we obtain that these von Neumann algebras M are always finitely generated projective N-modules with a minimal generator s...

Protein-protein interactions take place in every aspect of life. The diversity of those interactions and their significant role in regulatory pathways account for the special interest in them. As shown in various diseases, protein-protein interactions can be deregulated and the cause of illness. Therefore, a better and more detailed understanding of protein-protein interactions is of great impo...

This work proposes a tentative model for the calculation of dimensionless distances between phonemes; sounds are described with binary distinctive features and distances show linear consistency in terms of such features. The model can be used as a scoring function for local and global pairwise alignment of phoneme sequences, and the distances can be used as prior probabilities for Bayesian anal...

Options constitute integral part of modern financial trades, and are priced according to the risk associated with buying or selling certain asset in future. Financial literature mostly concentrates on risk-neutral methods of pricing options such as BlackScholes model. However, it is an emerging field in option pricing theory to use trading agents with utility functions to determine the option’s...

student organizations are active at social, political, cultural and welfare areas of student life. they have individual and systematic functions in those areas of student life. they have individual and systematic functions in that area too. their presence in university is necessary. this article describes their important functions. student organizations are active at social, political, cultural...
