The Minimal Number of Layers of a Perceptron That Sorts
In this paper we consider the problem of determining the minimal number of layers required by a multi-layered perceptron for solving the sorting problem. We discuss two formulations of the sorting problem; ABSSORT, which can be considered as the standard form of the sorting problem, and where, given an array of numbers, a new arra.y with the original numbers in non-decrea.sing order is requeste...
متن کاملThe epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is an integral membrane tyrosine kinase that is activated upon binding of a family of polypeptides that includes epidermal growth factor (EGF), transforming growth factor-alpha (TGFα), amphiregulin (AR), heparin-binding EGF (HB-EGF),
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is an integral membrane tyrosine kinase that is activated upon binding of a family of polypeptides that includes epidermal growth factor (EGF), transforming growth factor-alpha (TGFα), amphiregulin (AR), heparin-binding EGF (HB-EGF), betacellulin (BTC), and epiregulin (EPR) (reviewed by Lee et al., 1995). These ligands share a conserved, three disulfi...
متن کاملIntracellular Ca2+ signaling
Functional intracellular Ca(2+) signaling is essential for the upregulation of the canonical mTOR-controlled autophagy pathway triggered by rapamycin or by nutrient deprivation. Moreover, modifications in the Ca(2+)-signaling machinery coincide with autophagy stimulation. This results in enhanced intracellular Ca(2+) signaling essential for driving the autophagy process. Yet, the mechanisms ups...
متن کاملMinimal model of arterial chaos generated by coupled intracellular and membrane Ca2+oscillators.
We have developed a mathematical model of arterial vasomotion in which irregular rhythmic activity is generated by the nonlinear interaction of intracellular and membrane oscillators that depend on cyclic release of Ca2+ from internal stores and cyclic influx of extracellular Ca2+, respectively. Four key control variables were selected on the basis of the pharmacological characteristics of hist...
متن کاملThe intracellular functions of alpha6beta4 integrin are regulated by EGF
Upon ligand binding, the alpha6beta4 integrin becomes phosphorylated on tyrosine residues and combines sequentially with the adaptor molecules Shc and Grb2, linking to the ras pathway, and with cytoskeletal elements of hemidesmosomes. Since alpha6beta4 is expressed in a variety of tissues regulated by the EGF receptor (EGFR), we have examined the effect of EGF on the cytoskeletal and signaling ...
