We present PLTplot, a plotting package for PLT Scheme. PLTplot provides a basic interface for producing common types of plots such as line and vector field plots from Scheme functions and data, an advanced interface for producing customized plot types, and support for standard curve fitting. It incorporates renderer constructors, transformers from data to its graphical representation, as values...

The Eisenberg plot or hydrophobic moment plot methodology is one of the most frequently used methods of bioinformatics. Bioinformatics is more and more recognized as a helpful tool in Life Sciences in general, and recent developments in approaches recognizing lipid binding regions in proteins are promising in this respect. In this study a bioinformatics approach specialized in identifying lipid...

abstractinteraction of ni complex(salen= n, n´-ethylene bis(salicylideneimine)) with hen egg-white lysozyme (hewl) was studied by absorption spectroscopy, competitive binding study and thermal denaturation study. the protein binding affinity of ni complex was found to be (3.0×103m−1). the binding plot obtained from the absorption titration data gives a binding constant of 2.4 (± 0.3)×103 m-1. i...

An emergent approach to story generation by computer is characterized by a lack of predetermined plot and a focus on character interaction forming the material for stories. A potential problem is that no interesting story emerges. However, improvisational theater shows that – at least for human actors – a predetermined plot is not necessary for creating a compelling story. There are some princi...

We introduce a new method for generating optimal split-plot designs. These designs are optimal in the sense that they are efficient for estimating the fixed effects of the statistical model that is appropriate given the split-plot design structure. One advantage of the method is that it does not require the prior specification of a candidate set. This makes the production of split-plot designs ...

Recently, there has been an interest in methods for filtering large scatter plot spaces for interesting patterns. However, user interaction remains crucial in starting an explorative analysis in a large scatter plot space. We introduce an approach for explorative search and navigation in large sets of scatter plot diagrams. By means of a sketch-based query interface, users can start the explora...

Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques have been applied to video games to make the overall experience more enjoyable. In games with interactive storytelling (IS), player actions can substantially affect plot events and plot characters. Therefore, AI planning techniques have been used to shape the plot in response to player actions that conflict with authorial goals. While such methods are poi...
