Abstract Transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) are important sources of evolutionary innovations.Understanding how evolution navigates the sequence space of such sites can be achieved by mapping TFBS adaptive landscapes.In such a landscape, an individual location corresponds to a TFBS bound by a transcription factor.The elevation at that locat
Robust Algorithms for Change-Point Regressions Using the t-Distribution
Regression models with change-points have been widely applied in various fields.Most methodologies for change-point regressions assume Gaussian errors.For many real data having longer-than-normal tails or atypical observations, the use of normal errors may unduly affect the fit of change-point regression models.This paper proposes two robust algori
Experimental Study on the Vibration Characteristics of a Wave-Induced Oscillation Heaving Plate Energy Capture Device
In order to develop green energy, reduce carbon emissions, and alleviate global warming and the green energy crisis, many researchers focus on wave energy, using a device to convert wave energy into electricity.The three main types of wave energy converters are the overtopping type, the oscillating water column type, and the oscillating body type,
The role of cooking practices in the transmission of the foodborne parasite Taenia solium: A qualitative study in an endemic area of Southern Tanzania.
The pork tapeworm Taenia solium is a zoonotic food-borne parasite endemic in many developing countries causing human cysticercosis and taeniosis as well as porcine cysticercosis.It mainly affects the health of rural smallholder pig farmers and their Chandeliers communities, resulting in lower health status, reduced pork quality, and economic loss d
Aesthetic, Decorative and Structural Aspects of the Golden Chandeliers of Qajar era Kept in Museum of Hazrat Masoumeh (pbuh) Shrine
Chandelier is one of the illumination devices Shot Glasses used as hanging from the ceiling.Unlike other illumination devices, which are used merely to illuminate the surrounding environment, chandeliers are rooted in religious beliefs and hence they are usually used in religious places.The present research aimed at studying the golden chandeliers
