Image Mosaic

We employ Convolutional Neural Networks with the VGG16 and VGG19 architecture to classify photographs that span four decades of professional photographic work by Mário Cabrita Gil. For each photograph, the 4096 dimension feature vector is reduced to two-dimensions by employing distributed Stochast Neighbor Embedding (t-SNE). Finally, the photographs are arranged according to their similarity va...

Explorer MOSAIC

Background: The recent availability of complete sequences for numerous closely related bacterial genomes opens up new challenges in comparative genomics. Several methods have been developed to align complete genomes at the nucleotide level but their use and the biological interpretation of results are not straightforward. It is therefore necessary to develop new resources to access, analyze, an...

Characterization of Celery Mosaic Virus from Celery in Tehran Province

Background and Aims: Celery mosaic virus (CeMV) is one of the causal agents of viral diseases in celery (Apium graveolens). CeMV is a member of the Potyvirus genus in Potyviridae family. The virus is naturally transmitted by aphids in a non-persistent manner. During growing season 2006-2007 viral disease symptoms were observed in celery fields grown in Tehran Province (Bage daneshkade, Mohamads...

Unaffected mosaic C9orf72 case

OBJECTIVE Suggested C9orf72 disease mechanisms for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration include C9orf72 haploinsufficiency, G4C2/C4G2 RNA foci, and dipeptide repeat (DPR) proteins translated from the G4C2 expansion; however, the role of small expansions (e.g., 30-90 repeats) is unknown and was investigated here. METHODS We conducted a molecular and patholo...
