objective: recent evidences suggest that tumors arise from a small subpopulation of cells, the cancer stem cells (cscs) or tumor initiating cells. cscs are able to resist the conventional methods of cancer therapy due to existence of abc transporters on their surface. this leads to csc resistance and maintenance resulting in post-treatment relapse and metastasis. therefore, precise identificati...

In this paper three methods for on-line identification of first markov parameter at linear multivariable plants are presented. In these methods input-output data are used far the on-line identification of the first markov parameter.

an adaptive version of growing and pruning rbf neural network has been used to predict the system output and implement linear model-based predictive controller (lmpc) and non-linear model-based predictive controller (nmpc) strategies. a radial-basis neural network with growing and pruning capabilities is introduced to carry out on-line model identification.an unscented kalman filter (ukf) algor...

Abstract Line-implicit preconditioners are well known in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solvers and an essential component to handle meshes with cells of very high aspect ratio (> 1000:1). Such anisotropic commonly used resolve steep gradients the boundary layer a turbulent flow Reynolds number. To date, this technique has rarely been solve other partial differential equations. We show t...

In [k] = [k]×[k]× · · · ×[k], a coordinate line consists of the collection of points where all but one coordinate is fixed and the unfixed coordinate varies over all possibilities. We consider the problem of marking (or designating) one point on each line in [k] so that each point in [k] is marked either a or b times, for some fixed a or b. This is equivalent to forming a strategy for a hat gue...

To explore the function of light-harvesting complex protein (LHCP) in Arabidopsis growth and development, the Leclere and Bartel seed collection was screened. In this collection randomly cloned cDNAs are expressed under the CaMV35S promoter. A pale green line has been identified and characterized in more details. Analysis of the inserted cDNA in the pale green line showed it encodes LHCB1 prote...
