ABSTRACT Magnetically arrested accretion discs (MADs) around black holes (BHs) have the potential to stimulate production of powerful jets and account for recent ultra-high-resolution observations BH environments. Their main properties are usually attributed accumulation dynamically significant net magnetic (vertical) flux throughout region, which is then regulated by interchange instabilities....

This paper proposes a way to combine the Mesh Adaptive Direct Search (MADS) algorithm with Cross-Entropy (CE) method for nonsmooth constrained optimization. The CE is used as an exploration step by MADS algorithm. result of this combination retains convergence properties and allows efficient in order move away from local minima. samples trial points according multivariate normal distribution wh...

MADS box transcription factors control diverse developmental processes in plants, metazoans, and fungi. To analyze the involvement of MADS box proteins in fruiting body development of filamentous ascomycetes, we isolated the mcm1 gene from the homothallic ascomycete Sordaria macrospora, which encodes a putative homologue of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae MADS box protein Mcm1p. Deletion of the S....

This paper discusses the detection of missing annotation disagreements (MADs), in which an annotator misses annotating an annotation instance while her counterpart correctly annotates it. We employ annotator eye gaze as a clue for detecting this type of disagreement together with linguistic information. More precisely, we extract highly frequent gaze patterns from the pre-extracted gaze sequenc...

Three MADS-box genes were identified from a cDNA library derived from young flowers of Eucalyptus grandis W. Hill ex Maiden. The three egm genes are single-copy genes and are expressed almost exclusively in flowers. The egm1 and egm3 genes shared strongest homology with other plant MADS-box genes, which mediate between the floral meristem and the organ-identity genes. The egm3 gene was also exp...

We have generated 47 DNA pools and 235 subpools from 21,049 T-DNA insertion lines of rice. DNA pools of 500-1,000 lines were adequate for screening a T-DNA insertion within a 2-kb region. To examine the efficacy of the DNA pools, we selected MADS-box genes, which play an important role in controlling various aspects of plant development. A total of 34 MIKC-type MADS-box genes have now been iden...

Developmental programs rely on the timely and spatially correct expression of sets of interacting factors, many of which appear to be transcription factors. Examples of these can be found in the MADS-box gene family. This gene family has greatly expanded, particularly in plants, by a range of duplications that have enabled the genes to diversify in structure and function. MADS-box genes appear ...

MADS-box genes have been shown to play a role in the formation of fruits, both in Arabidopsis and in tomato. In peach, two C-class MADS-box genes have been isolated. Both of them are expressed during flower and mesocarp development. Here a detailed analysis of a gene that belongs to the PLENA subfamily of MADS-box genes is shown. The expression of this PLENA-like gene (PpPLENA) increases during...

The Mesh Adaptive Direct Search (MADS) class of algorithms is designed for nonsmooth optimization, where the objective function and constraints are typically computed by launching a time-consuming computer simulation. Each iteration of a MADS algorithm attempts to improve the current best-known solution by launching the simulation at a finite number of trial points. Common implementations of MA...

In this paper a new order recursive algorithm for the efficient 9B-l factorization of Toeplitz matrices is described. The proposed algorithm can be seen as a fast modified Gram-Schmidt method which recursively computes the orthonormal columns si, i = 1,2, . ,p, of 1, as well as the elements of WI, of a Toeplitz matrix X with dimensions L x p. The 2 factor estimation requires 8Lp MADS (multiplic...
