Vibrational entropy and the structural organization of proteins

In this paper we analyze the vibrational spectra of a large ensemble of non-homologous protein structures by means of a novel tool, that we coin Hierarchical Network Model (HNM). Our coarse-grained scheme accounts for the intrinsic heterogeneity of force c ...

Applications of Derandomization Theory in Coding

Mahdi Cheraghchi Bashi Astaneh

Randomized techniques play a fundamental role in theoretical computer science and discrete mathematics, in particular for the design of efficient algorithms and construction of combinatorial objects. The basic goal in derandomization theory is to eliminate ...

Pattern-Based Sensing of Sulfated Glycosaminoglycans with a Dynamic Mixture of Iron Complexes

Kay Severin

A dynamic mixture of iron complexes was used as a colorimetric sensor for sulfated glycosaminoglycans. The sensing ensemble was prepared by mixing [FeCl2(H2O)4] with dipicolylamine, the functionalized bipyridyl ligand N-(6-aminohexyl)-4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyri ...

Brain Decoding Of Fmri Connectivity Graphs Using Decision Tree Ensembles

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Jonas Richiardi

Functional connectivity analysis of fMRI data can reveal synchronized activity between anatomically distinct brain regions. Here, we exploit the characteristic connectivity graphs of task and resting epochs to perform classification between these condition ...

Daily streamflow analysis based on a two-scaled gamma pulse model

Andrea Rinaldo, Gianluca Botter

In this paper, we develop a simple analysis method to infer some properties of the watershed processes from daily streamflow data. The method is built on a simple streamflow model with a link to rainfall stochasticity, which characterizes the streamflow as ...

Markov Chain Modeling And Analysis Of Complicated Phenomena In Coupled Chaotic Oscillators

Martin Hasler

In this paper, we propose a Markov chain modeling of complicated phenomena observed from coupled chaotic oscillators. Once we obtain the transition probability matrix from computer simulation results, various statistical quantities can be easily calculated ...

On the parameterization of rigid base and basepair models of DNA from molecular dynamics simulations

John Maddocks, Leesa Maree Heffler

A method is described to extract a complete set of sequence-dependent material parameters for rigid base and basepair models of DNA in solution from atomistic molecular dynamics simulations. The method is properly consistent with equilibrium statistical me ...

Magnetism of individual atoms adsorbed on surfaces

Harald Brune, Pietro Gambardella

Magnetic impurities in solids cause manifold changes in their macroscopic properties, such as anomalous low temperature resistance due to Kondo screening, reduction of the superconducting transition temperature due to local suppression of the order paramet ...

Ground state properties of large atoms and quantum dots

Rico Rueedi

We investigate the ground state properties of large atoms and quantum dots described by a d-dimensional N-body Hamiltonian of confinement ZV. In atoms, d = 3 and V is the Coulomb interaction; in dots, d = 2 and V is phenomenologically determined. We expres ...

Interface free energy or surface tension: definition and basic properties.

Charles Pfister

Interface free energy is the contribution to the free energy of a system due to the presence of an interface separating two coexisting phases at equilibrium. It is also called interfacial free energy or surface tension. The content of the paper is 1) the d ...
