Bayesian reasoning is applied to the data by the ROG Collaboration, in which grav-itational wave (g.w.) signals are searched for in a coincidence experiment between Explorer and Nautilus. The use of Bayesian reasoning allows, under well defined hypotheses , even tiny pieces of evidence in favor of each model to be extracted from the data. The combination of the data of several experiments can t...

Several authors have proposed different methods to find the solution of fully fuzzy linear programming (FFLP) problems. But all the existing methods are based on the assumption that all the fuzzy coefficients and the fuzzy variables are non-negative fuzzy numbers. in this paper a new method is proposed to solve an FFLP problems with arbitrary fuzzy coefficients and arbitrary fuzzy variables, th...

“Sarab rog ka aukhad naam” (“The recitation of God’s name cures all diseases”) is a quotation from the Guru Granth Sahib —the Sikh Holy Book— highlighting Sikhism’s perspective on illness, referring to as primary source guidance regarding issues health. However, in decades since this was first written, burden chronic illness community has become more severe. Notably, cardiovascular disease (CVD...

In the context of human-robot dialogue, we consider the problem of annotating utterances with non-verbal behaviour. We argue for the need of a data-driven approach, that could learn those behaviours. As a first step we propose to replicate the results obtained by the current state-of-the-art, the rule-based system BEAT. Our proposed baseline, based on multi-label logistic regression with some s...

Two competing phenomological models of extraclassical spatial summation in V1 are the Differenceof-Gaussians (DoG) and the Ratio-of-Gaussians (RoG) which argue for subtractive or divisive normalization, respectively, as the basis for a variety of extraclassical response properties, such as surround suppression and contrast-dependent receptive field growth. Problematic with these models, however...

The transcription factor GATA3 is the master regulator that drives mammary luminal epithelial cell differentiation and maintains mammary gland homeostasis. Loss of GATA3 is associated with aggressive breast cancer development. We have identified ZNF503/ZEPPO2 zinc-finger elbow-related proline domain protein 2 (ZPO2) as a transcriptional repressor of GATA3 expression and transcriptional activity...

We twist the monopole equations of Seiberg and Witten and show how these equations are realized in topological Yang-Mills theory. A Floer derivative and a Morse functional are found and are used to construct a unitary transformation between the usual Floer cohomologies and those of the monopole equations. Furthermore, these equations are seen to reside in the vanishing self-dual curvature condi...
