Vitamin A plays an essential role in animal biology and has negative effects associated with both hypo- and hypervitaminosis A. Many notable interventions are being done globally to eliminate vitamin A deficiency, including supplementation, fortification, and biofortification. At the same time, it is important to monitor vitamin A status in nations where preformed vitamin A intake is high becau...

With the advent of high-throughput profiling methods, interest in reverse engineering the structure and dynamics of biochemical networks is high. Recently an algorithm for reverse engineering of biochemical networks was developed by Laubenbacher and Stigler. It is a top-down approach using time discrete dynamical systems. One of its key steps includes the choice of a term order, a technicality ...

From the frontier of this paper, unless specified something else, let it be agreed that all groups into consideration are p-primary abelian for some arbitrary but fixed prime p written additively as is the custom when dealing with abelian group theory. The present short note is a contribution to a recent flurry of our results in [6]. Standardly, all notions and notations are essentially the sam...

a r t i c l e i n f o Although both anecdotal and academic sources have suggested that interpersonal recommendation is an important means to promote mobile applications (apps), little to no research has investigated this topic. To fill the void, we develop a research model based on the Customer Value, Satisfaction, and Loyalty Framework (VSL). While prior VSL studies treated customer value as a...

In this second recitation, we will address the following topics: • Review of the projection theorem. • Derivation of the projection operator on the range of a matrix, using completion of squares. • Solutions of under and over constrained linear equations. Notice that this recitation note is an alternative discussion of the least-squares problem which is more difficult than the one you can find ...

As we ride a wave of renewed awareness of and investment in malaria prevention and treatment, it is tempting to believe that the era of neglect lies behind us. Although malaria's comparatively high profile excludes it from the World Health Organization's list of " neglected tropical diseases " (http://www.who. int/neglected_diseases/diseases/en/), this technicality should not deceive us into th...
