Numerical linear algebraNumerical linear algebra, sometimes called applied linear algebra, is the study of how matrix operations can be used to create computer algorithms which efficiently and accurately provide approximate answers to questions in continuous mathematics. It is a subfield of numerical analysis, and a type of linear algebra. Computers use floating-point arithmetic and cannot exactly represent irrational data, so when a computer algorithm is applied to a matrix of data, it can sometimes increase the difference between a number stored in the computer and the true number that it is an approximation of.
Algorithme probabilisteEn algorithmique, un algorithme probabiliste, ou algorithme randomisé, est un algorithme qui utilise une source de hasard. Plus précisément le déroulement de l’algorithme fait appel à des données tirées au hasard. Par exemple à un certain point de l’exécution, on tire un bit 0 ou 1, selon la loi uniforme et si le résultat est 0, on fait une certaine action A et si c'est 1, on fait une autre action. On peut aussi tirer un nombre réel dans l'intervalle [0,1] ou un entier dans un intervalle [i..j].
DynorphinDynorphins (Dyn) are a class of opioid peptides that arise from the precursor protein prodynorphin. When prodynorphin is cleaved during processing by proprotein convertase 2 (PC2), multiple active peptides are released: dynorphin A, dynorphin B, and α/β-neo-endorphin. Depolarization of a neuron containing prodynorphin stimulates PC2 processing, which occurs within synaptic vesicles in the presynaptic terminal. Occasionally, prodynorphin is not fully processed, leading to the release of “big dynorphin.
