Highly active variants of minimal hammerhead ribozymes are generated by the replacement of substantial parts of stem-loop structures with pyrene building blocks.

In this paper, we introduce a new type of contrast pattern, the minimal contrast subgraph. It is able to capture structural differences between any two collections of graphs and can be useful in chemical compound comparison and building graph classification models. However, mining minimal contrast subgraphs is a challenging task, due to the exponentially large search space and graph (sub)isomor...

In this note, by considering the notions of the intuitionistic general L-fuzzy automaton and $(alpha, beta)$-language, we show that for any $(alpha, beta)$-language $mathcal{L}$, there exists a minimal intuitionistic general L-fuzzy automaton recognizing $mathcal{L}$.We prove that the minimal intuitionistic general L-fuzzy automaton is isomorphic with threshold $(alpha,beta)$ to any $(alpha, be...

We present a fast incremental algorithm for constructing minimal DFCA for a given language. Since it was shown that the minimal DFCA for a language L has less states than the minimal DFA for the same language L, this technique seems to be the best choice for incrementally building the automaton for a large language, especially when the number of states in the DFCA is significantly less than the...

Commercial buildings often experience faults that produce undesirable behavior in building systems. Building faults waste energy, decrease occupants’ comfort, and increase operating costs. Automated fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) tools for buildings help building owners discover and identify the root causes of faults in building systems, equipment, and controls. Proper implementation of FD...

a group g is said to be a (pf)c-group or to have polycyclic-by-finite conjugacy classes, if g/c_{g}(x^{g}) is a polycyclic-by-finite group for all xin g. this is a generalization of the familiar property of being an fc-group. de falco et al. (respectively, de giovanni and trombetti) studied groups whose proper subgroups of infinite rank have finite (respectively, polycyclic) conjugacy classes. ...
