This paper discuses multiple Bayesian networks representation paradigms for encoding asymmetric independence assertions. We offer three contributions: (1) an inference mechanism that makes explicit use of asymmetric independence to speed up computations, (2) a simplified definition of similarity networks and extensions of their theory, and (3) a generalized representation schexne that encodes m...

Background: The dosimetric performance of Eclipse 6.5 three dimensional treatment planning system (3DTPS) is evaluated by comparing the calculated and measured dose in two dimensions following the guide lines of American Association for Physicists in Medicine Task Group 53. Materials and Methods: The calculations were performed by the 3DTPS for symmetric as well as asymmetric fields for standar...

Today, electron leakage in InP-based separate confinement laser diode has a serious effect on device performance. Control of electron leakage current is the aim of many studies in semiconductor laser industry. In this study, for the first time, a new asymmetric waveguide structure with n-interlayer for a 1.325 μm InP-based laser diode with InGaAsP multi-quantum well is proposed and theoreticall...

Asymmetric cell division is an evolutionarily conserved process that gives rise to daughter cells with different fates. In one-cell stage C. elegans embryos, this process is accompanied by asymmetric spindle positioning, which is regulated by anterior-posterior (A-P) polarity cues and driven by force generators located at the cell membrane. These force generators comprise two Gα proteins, the c...

The first and concise total synthesis of murisolin (1) was accomplished using asymmetric alkynylation and Sonogashira coupling as the key steps. The threo/trans/threo-type THF ring moiety was constructed with excellent stereoselectivity by asymmetric alkynylation of 1,6-heptadiyne to alpha-tetrahydrofuranic aldehyde, which was also prepared via the asymmetric alkynylation.
