I consider unsupervised extensions of the fast stepwise linear regression algorithm [5]. These extensions allow one to efficiently identify highly-representative feature variable subsets within a given set of jointly distributed variables. This in turn allows for the efficient dimensional reduction of large data sets via the removal of redundant features. Fast search is effected here through th...

Structural properties and the topology of polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) formed in solution have been investigated under different conditions by Monte Carlo simulations using a coarse-grained model. The extension of individual polyions has been characterized by their radius of gyration, whereas the composition of the complexes has been investigated by their net charge and their internal topol...

iron is one of the most important nutrients in the human diet. according to the high consumption of staple foods such as wheat, the deficiency of iron in these crops would lead to nutritional disorders and related complications. to identify microsatellite markers associated with wheat grain iron content,38iranian prevalent wheat genotypes were assessed using 30 pairs of genomic and est microsat...

Advanced learning environments such as intelligent tutoring systems for algebra, logic, programming, physics, etc. let a student practice with stepwise exercises, and support a student solving such exercises by providing feedback. These environments usually provide various types of feedback, for example about the correctness of a step, common errors, hints about how to proceed, or complete work...
