We identified the sequence-specific starting positions of consecutive miscalls in the mapping of reads obtained from the Illumina Genome Analyser (GA). Detailed analysis of the miscall pattern indicated that the underlying mechanism involves sequence-specific interference of the base elongation process during sequencing. The two major sequence patterns that trigger this sequence-specific error ...

Building on many data sources and country examples women’s employment in the social solidarity economy (SSE) report: i) analyses SSE, ii) explores challenges to gender equality SSE and, iii) provides policy recommendations recognise work leadership wider economy. It also suggests ways foster their participation high-growth sectors within such as technology-intensive green sectors.

Searchable Symmetric Encryption (SSE) allows for dataconfidentiality while allowing searches in the encrypted data. Curtmola et al. (CCS ’06) formulated strong security definitions for SSE schemes and constructed the first schemes that are secure in their model. Up to now, their schemes set the current state-of-the-art in SSE both in terms of security and efficency. We propose an alternative an...

This paper considers the problem of embedding Knowledge Graphs (KGs) consisting of entities and relations into lowdimensional vector spaces. Most of the existing methods perform this task based solely on observed facts. The only requirement is that the learned embeddings should be compatible within each individual fact. In this paper, aiming at further discovering the intrinsic geometric struct...

Hepatic steatosis is a common condition, the prevalence of which is increasing along with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Currently, the most accurate noninvasive imaging method for diagnosing and quantifying hepatic steatosis is MRI, which estimates the proton-density fat fraction (PDFF) as a measure of fractional fat content. However, MRI suffers several limitations including cost,...

Two factors, which affect simulation quality are the amount of computing power and implementation. The Streaming SIMD (single instruction multiple data) extensions (SSE) present a technique for influencing both by exploiting the processor’s parallel functionalism. In this paper, we show how SSE improves performance of lattice gauge theory simulations. We identified two significant trends throug...

The role of exogenous metabolites as putative signal molecules mediating and/or regulating the carbon starvation adaptation program in Vibrio sp. strain S14 was investigated. Addition of the stationary-phase supernatant extract (SSE) of Vibrio sp. strain S14 to logarithmic-phase cells resulted in a significant number of carbon starvation-induced proteins being up-regulated. Halogenated furanone...

Objective: We used permutation entropy (PE) to disclose abnormalities of cerebral activity in patients with early genetic or sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), as compared to patients with steroid-sensitive subacute encephalopathies (SSE) and healthy volunteers (HV). Methods: We evaluated 16 EEG of CJD patients, 21 of SSE patients and 33 of HV. EEG of CJD patients were performed at an ea...
