In this paper, we generalise multiple kernel Fisher discriminant analysis (MK-FDA) such that the kernel weights can be regularised with an `p norm for any p ≥ 1, in contrast to existing MK-FDA that uses either l1 or l2 norm. We present formulations for both binary and multiclass cases and solve the associated optimisation problems efficiently with semi-infinite programming. We show on three obj...

Five ferredoxin (Fd) isoproteins (FdA, FdB, FdC, FdD, and Fdf) were isolated from tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum cv Momotaro) fruit. These isoproteins showed differential temporal and spatial accumulation patterns. FdA and FdC were present in leaves, FdE was present in roots, and FdB and FdD were fruit-specific. During fruit growth, the relative abundance of FdA decreased and that of FdE incre...

This article discusses how the Food and Drug Administration has come to adopt informal guidance (agency advice that influences regulated entities but does not carry the force and effect of law) as its primary method of policymaking, as opposed to more formalized procedures like notice-and-comment rulemaking or case-specific adjudication. Using major developments in administrative law and modifi...
