چکیده

5-Hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) is a major metabolite of serotonin, generated via a two step process, involving monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and aldehyde dehydrogenase. Measurement of 5HIAA in combination with serotonin may offer insight into mechanisms underlying various clinical symptoms. The ratio of serotonin to 5-HIAA may be used to evaluate serotonin turnover and monoamine oxidase activity. Abnormal levels of 5-HIAA have been associated with depression, suicidal behaviors, aggression, chronic psychotropic medication use, and Parkinson's Disease.

Improvement of density-based clustering algorithm using modifying the density definitions and input parameter

Clustering is one of the main tasks in data mining, which means grouping similar samples. In general, there is a wide variety of clustering algorithms. One of these categories is density-based clustering. Various algorithms have been proposed for this method; one of the most widely used algorithms called DBSCAN. DBSCAN can identify clusters of different shapes in the dataset and automatically i...

Existence of ground states for approximately inner two--parameter $C_0$--groups on $C^*$--algebras

In this paper, we generalize the definitions of approximately inner $C_0$-groups and their ground states to the two- parameter case and study necessary and sufficient conditions for a state to be ground state. Also we prove that any approximately inner two- parameter $C_0$--group must have at least one ground state. Finally some applications are given.

The Heinemann-Mittermeir Generalized Shape Factor and Its Practical Relevance

Fifty years ago Warren and Root have introduced the shape factor. This fundamental parameter for modeling of naturally fractured reservoirs has been discussed stormily ever since. Different definitions for shape factor have been suggested which all of them are heuristically based. Recently, Heinemann and Mittermeir mathematically derived - based on the dual-continuum theorem assuming pseudo-ste...

FM-Sim: Protocol Definition, Simulation and Rate Inference for Neuroscience Assays

Synaptic vesicle recycling at the presynaptic terminal of neurons is essential for the maintenance of neurotransmission at central synapses. Among the tools used to visualise the mechanics of this process is time-series fluorescence microscopy. Fluorescent dyes such as FM143, or engineered fluorescent versions of synaptic vesicle proteins such as pHluorins, have been employed to reveal di↵erent...

Trends in Functional Programming

We present a proof rule and an effective tactic for proving properties about HASKELL type classes by proving them for the available instance definitions. This is not straightforward, because instance definitions may depend on each other. The proof assistant ISABELLE handles this problem for single parameter type classes by structural induction on types. However, this does not suffice for an eff...
