We propose a new approach to context processing in on-line handwritten character recognition (OLCR). Based on the observation that writers often repeat the strings that they input, we take the approach of adaptive context processing (ACP). In ACP, the strings input by a writer are automatically added to a dictionary designated for ACP. This dictionary thereby can provide good coverage of the st...

In this article we study the regularization of optimization problems by Tikhonov regularization. The optimization problems are subject to pointwise inequality constraints in L2(Ω). We derive a-priori regularization error estimates if the regularization parameter as well as the noise level tend to zero. We rely on an assumption that is a combination of a source condition and of a structural assu...

Fatty acids are activated in an ATP-dependent manner before they are utilized. We describe here how the 10 S triacylglycerol biosynthetic multienzyme complex from Rhodotorula glutinis is capable of activating non-esterified fatty acids for the synthesis of triacylglycerol. The photolabelling of the complex with [(32)P]azido-ATP showed labelling of a 35 kDa polypeptide. The labelled polypeptide ...

Acyl carrier protein (ACP) is a small (9kDa) protein which is essential for fatty acid synthesis. In bacteria [ l ] and plants [2] which use type I1 dissociable fatty acid synthetases, acyl chains are esterified to ACP through the 4'-phosphopantetheine prosthetic group, and ACP acts as a carrier during fatty acid synthesis. ACPs from bacteria and plants are very similar. All are small acidic pr...

The widespread applicability of the multi-penalty regularization is limited by the fact that theoretically optimal rate of reconstruction for a given problem can be realized by a oneparameter counterpart, provided that relevant information on the problem is available and taken into account in the regularization. In this paper, we explore the situation, where no such information is given, but st...

Acyl carrier protein (ACP) interacts with many different enzymes during the synthesis of fatty acids, phospholipids, and other specialized products in bacteria. To examine the structural and functional roles of amino acids previously implicated in interactions between the ACP polypeptide and fatty acids attached to the phosphopantetheine prosthetic group, recombinant Vibrio harveyi ACP and muta...

In this article, the effect of the nonextensivity parameter on the energy fluctuations of nonextensive systems is studied in two different versions of the Tsallis statistical mechanics. Once a general expression has been reported for the energy fluctuations in the second version (Tsallis work in 1988), the energy fluctuations of an ideal gas and a harmonic oscillator are studied in the second a...

This 12-week clinical study evaluated the impact of 10% CPP-ACP and 5% sodium fluoride varnish regimes on the regression of nonorthodontic white spot lesions (WSLs). The study included 21 children with 101 WSLs who were randomised into four treatment regimes: weekly clinical applications of fluoride varnish for the first month (FV); twice daily self-applications of CPP-ACP paste (CPP-ACP); week...
