Abstract:

Purpose There is no particularly efficient way to measure research output, but effectual assessment of research output is necessary to motivate and encourage researchers to enhance their research performance and disseminate knowledge. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the exacerbating pressure on Indian academics to deliver incessantly in terms of research output and identify an agreeable way to increase research output. The metric explores trends in management publications by Indian academics and presents an overview of collaborative practices by Indian management researchers that cou

Abstract:

Much of today’s molecular science revolves around next-generation sequencing. Frequently, the first step in analyzing such data is aligning sequencing reads to a reference genome. This step is often taken for granted, but any analysis downstream of the alignment will be affected by the aligner’s ability to correctly map sequences. In most cases, for research into chromatin structure and nucleosome positioning, ATAC-seq, ChIP-seq, and MNase-seq experiments use short read lengths. How well aligners manage these reads is critical. Most aligner programs will output mapped reads and unmapped reads.

Abstract:

Benchmarking is a powerful and thriving tool to enhance the performance and profitabilities of organizations in business engineering. Though performance benchmarking has been practically and theoretically developed in distinct fields such as banking, education, health, and so on, benchmarking of supply chains with multiple echelons that include certain characteristics such as intermediate measure differs from other practices. In spite of incremental benchmarking activities in practice, there is the dearth of a unified and effective guideline for benchmarking in organizations. Amongst the bench

Additionally, the systems lack understanding of how linked targets in multi-target regression are handled, making it difficult for practitioners to determine the real connections. The purpo

Selecting an appropriate algorithm is critical for users, as it influences the electrical efficiency of PV systems and lowers costs by reducing the number of solar panels required to achieve the desired output.

Abstract:

Abstract Motivation With its capacity for high-resolution data output in one region of interest, chromosome conformation capture combined with high-throughput sequencing (4C-seq) is a state-of-the-art next-generation sequencing technique that provides epigenetic insights, and regularly advances current medical research. However, 4C-seq data are complex and prone to biases, and while specialized programs exist, an unbiased, extensive benchmarking is still lacking. Furthermore, neither substantial datasets with fully characterized ground truth, nor simulation programs for realistic 4C-seq data h

Abstract:

The problem of origin-destination (O-D) matrix estimation has attracted significant research attention in the past few decades. This paper proposes a novel approach to estimate a regional freight O-D matrix using different data sources. The genetically optimized origin-destination estimation (GOODE) model takes advantage of the genetic algorithm's (GA) global search procedure to find the O-D matrix that is associated with the minimum deviation between estimated and observed data values. The GOODE-commodity model, an extension of the GOODE model, estimates the freight O-D matrix by interfacing

Abstract:

Abstract Better structural variation (SV) detection could improve cancer diagnosis, treatment and prevention. Yet many cancer genomics studies have only reliably detected single nucleotide variants and small indels due to technological limitations of short-read sequencing. While structural variants can be inferred from discordant short read pairs, as much as 70% of SVs remain undetected because of the mappability difficulties. This is especially true for SVs in regions where GC content is greater than 45% or regions which harbor tandem repeats and segmental duplications. Advances in long-read

Objectives: High-quality research has a tangible impact on patient care and should inform all medical decision-makings. Appraising and benchmarking of research is necessary in evidence-based medicine and allocation of funding. The aim of this review is to demonstrate how evidence may be gathered by quantifying the amount and type of research by a group of surgeons over a 20-year period. Methods: Members of the Colorectal Surgical Society of Australia and New Zealand were identified in April 2020. A search of the Scopus database was conducted to quantify each surgeon’s research output from 1999
