Modeling Skewness in Human Transcriptomes
Gene expression data are influenced by multiple biological and technological factors leading to a wide range of dispersion scenarios, although skewed patterns are not commonly addressed in microarray analyses. In this study, the distribution pattern of several human transcriptomes has been studied on free-access microarray gene expression data. Our results showed that, even in previously normal...
متن کاملSpecies-specific exon loss in human transcriptomes.
Changes in exon-intron structures and splicing patterns represent an important mechanism for the evolution of gene functions and species-specific regulatory networks. Although exon creation is widespread during primate and human evolution and has been studied extensively, much less is known about the scope and potential impact of human-specific exon loss events. Historically, transcriptome data...
متن کاملStochastic human fatigue modeling in production systems
The performance of human resources is affected by various factors such as mental and physical fatigue, skill, and available time in the production systems. Generally, these mentioned factors have effects on human reliability and consequently change the reliability of production systems. Fatigue is a stochastic factor that changes according to other factors such as environmental conditions, work...
متن کاملParsimonious modeling of scaling laws in genomes and transcriptomes
We report here the use of Aevol, a software developed in our team to unravel the indirect selective pressures (i.e. pressures for robustness and/or evolvability) that act on the genome and transcriptome structures. Using Aevol, we have shown that these structures are under strong – although indirect – pressure due to the mutagenic effect of chromosomal rearrangements. Individuals undergoing hig...
متن کاملSkewness in Hedge Funds Returns: Classical Skewness Coefficients vs. Azzalini’s Skewness Parameter
Recent literature discusses the persistence of skewness and tail risk in hedge fund returns. The aim of this paper is to suggest an alternative skewness measure which is derived as the normalized shape parameter from the skew-normal distribution. First, we illustrate that the skew-normal distribution is better able to catch the characteristics of hedge fund returns than the normal distributio...
