Information theory and molecular biology

Dr. Yockey presents an introduction to the use of information theory in molecular biology. The book lends to molecular biology a well-developed mathematical foundation and provides mathematical definitions for the vocabulary with which basi...

Psychometric facets of Antifragility: Tolerance of Ambiguity, Hardiness, and Growth

This paper considers the issues, which are concerned with a new concept of antifragility. Quite recently, considerable attention has been paid to the concept of antifragility. Antifragility gains a special importance in studying psychologic...

An Organizational View of Distributed Systems

The relationship between organization theory and distributed systems is studied. By viewing distributed systems as analogous to human organizations, concepts and theories germane to the management science field of organization theory can be...

Carbon dioxide uptake in a eutrophic stratified reservoir: Freshwater carbon sequestration potential

Carbon capture and storage due to photosynthesis activities has been proposed as a carbon sink to mitigate climate change. To enhance such mitigation, previous studies have shown that freshwater lakes should be included in the carbon sink, ...

Research on a Comprehensive Performance Analysis Method for Building-Integrated Photovoltaics Considering Global Climate Change

Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) represent a pivotal technology for enhancing the utilization of renewable energy in buildings. However, challenges persist, including the lack of integrated design models, limited analytical dimensi...

Assembly Function Recognition in Embedded Systems as an Optimization Problem

Many different aspects of software system development and verification rely on precise function identification in binary code. Recognition of the source Assembly functions in embedded systems is one of the fundamental challenges in binary p...

Microstructure-based variational deep material networks for robust uncertainty quantification in materials digital twins

Abstract Aleatoric uncertainties – irremovable variability in microstructure morphology, constituent behavior, and processing conditions – pose a major challenge to developing uncertainty-robust digital twins. We introduce the Variational D...

Social network X and mental health in Brazil in times of coronavirus

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a number of impacts on people's daily lives around the world. The radical change in people's daily routines has led to an increase in the use and consumption of social media content. The scenario ...

Evaluation of natural language processors

Despite a large amount of research on developing natural language understanding programs, little work has been done on evaluating their performance or potential. The evaluations that have been done have been unsystematic and incomplete. Thi...

Evaluation system of college english teaching quality based on fuzzy information of artificial intelligence

Abstract The current evaluation of English teaching quality in colleges and universities faces the problems of information uncertainty and fuzziness. Traditional evaluation methods cannot accurately reflect the complex teaching effects, mai...

AN EXTRACTION OF KEY VARIABLESFOR LONG-TERM TRENDS USING A MODIFIEDCROSS-IMPACT MATRIX

The traditional approach to forecasting lies in the assumption that, byapplying a set of powerful analytic tools, the future could be predictedaccurately enough to choose an appropriate strategic direction for it. Theprocess often involves ...
