Abstract:

Comparative studies of bacterial genomes, now counting in the hundreds, generate massive amounts of information. In order to support a systematic and efficient approach to genomic analyses, a database driven system with graphic visualization of genomic properties was developed - GenComp. The software was applied to studies of obligate intracellular bacteria. In all studies, ORFs were extracted and grouped into ORF-families. Based on gene order synteny, orthologous clusters of core genes and variable spacer ORFs were identified and extracted for alignments and computation of substitution freque

Abstract:

The individual functional analysis (FA) is the most widely used method to identify variables that influence the occurrence of problem behavior. Researchers often modify the FA after the analysis reveals undifferentiated responding. The interview-informed synthesized contingency analysis (IISCA) is one of the most substantial variations of the FA that builds upon the FA modifications. We evaluated the use of the two different functional analytic methods, the FA and IISCA, and the subsequent function-based treatment to reduce problem behavior for three children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD

Abstract:

The doctoral research revolves around a comparative study of timber modern methods of construction for low-rise, residential buildings in Scotland. The building techniques studied involve both timber-frame panel construction (open-panel and closed-panel systems and structural insulated panels) and massive-timber construction (cross-laminated and nail-laminated timber panels). A non-timber technique is also included in the study: more traditional, load-bearing masonry (blockwork).

Recently, the deep neural network structure caps-net was proposed by Sabouret al. [11]. Capsule networks are designed to learn relative geometry betweenthe features of a layer and the features of the next layer. The Capsule network’smain building blocks are capsules, which are represented by vectors. The ideais that each capsule will represent a feature as well as traits or subfeatures ofthat feature. This allows for smart information routing. Capsules traits are usedto predict the traits of the capsules in the next layer, and information is sent toto next layer capsules on which the predictio

We study the development of nonlinear conjugate gradient methods, Fletcher Reeves (FR) and Polak Ribiere (PR). FR extends the linear conjugate gradient method to nonlinear functions by incorporating two changes, for the step length αk a line search is performed and replacing the residual, rk (rk=b-Axk) by the gradient of the nonlinear objective function. The PR method is equivalent to FR method for exact line searches and when the underlying quadratic function is strongly convex. The PR method is basically a variant of FR and primarily differs from it in the choice of the parameter βk. On appl

The adaptive serrated nozzle (ASN) is one of the most promising concepts to help reduce the noise level generated by aero-engines. Shear between a hot air stream and ambient air at the nozzle exit creates noise. The serrated nozzle is designed to protrude into the air stream causing mixing between the two air streams reducing the noise level. Adaptive control system using shape memory alloy (SMA) actuators deploy the protrusion only when required in order to maximise fuel efficiency.

The present study sets out to assess patterns of evolutionary diversification in central African duikers (subfamily Cephalophinae). The sampling strategy consisted of collecting geo-referenced duiker feces across 43 sites and seven countries. However, several challenges related to the use of non-invasive samples needed to be addressed prior to large scale DNA amplification. First, the best storage method for obtaining DNA from fecal samples needed to be established.
