In this work, we propose a network-based approach to cluster the protein pockets into similar groups in a database level. A pocket similarity network is constructed to describe structural similarity relationships among the pockets from the systematic perspective, which possesses the community structures and can can be utilized to develop a direct method to cluster the pockets by partitioning th...

The set of solutions of 1.1 is denoted by A B −1 0 . A number of problems arising in structural analysis, mechanics, and economics can be studied in the framework of this kind of variational inclusions; see, for instance, 1–4 . The problem 1.1 includes many problems as special cases. 1 If B ∂φ : H → 2 , where φ : H → R ∪ ∞ is a proper convex lower semicontinuous function and ∂φ is the subdif an...

This work describes the incorporation of a variational image registration algorithm into an interactive medical tool to support clinical decision about treatment of brain pathologies. Through the combination of anatomical (Magnetic Resonance Images, MRI), functional (Positron Emission Tomography, PET) and molecular images (Chemical Shift Imaging, CSI) clinicians can determine the best therapeut...

The present study aimed at finding structural variations in the translated abstracts from Persian into English and comparing them with abstracts originally written in English and published in international journals in the area of medical sciences. To do this, 64 medical article abstracts (32 in Iranian journals, 32 in international journals) were analyzed and compared on the basis of Swales’ mo...

This paper deals with a variational model applicable to small-deformation structural analysis expressed for linearly elastic-perfectly plastic (von Mises-Hubcr-Hencky) material. The model comprises a unification of the minimum complementary energy principal, the Haar-von Karman principle for deformation elastoplasticity, and (in a sense) the lower bound theorem of Limit Analysis. Thus it corres...

Comparisons of large samples of course and teaching evaluation questionnaire data show consistent disciplinary differences. The current study examined the disciplinary differences in a theoretical model positing the impact of the perceived nature of teaching and learning environment on the development of generic capabilities by testing of (1) whether a common model of good teaching operated acr...

Pansharpening techniques aim at fusing the structural detail of the panchromatic and the color accuracy of the low-resolution spectral bands provided by Earth observation satellites to produce a high-resolution multispectral image. A large number of methods have been proposed in the literature, most of which were developed based on certain assumptions about the acquisition system. If any of the...
