Most ab initio pseudoknot predicting methods provide very few folding scenarios for a given RNA sequence and have low sensitivities. RNA researchers, in many cases, would rather sacrifice the specificity for a much higher sensitivity for pseudoknot detection. In this study, we introduce the Pseudoknot Local Motif Model and Dynamic Partner Sequence Stacking (PLMM_DPSS) algorithm which predicts a...

Stacking operators are widely used in seismic imaging and seismic data processing. Examples include Kirchhoff datuming, migration, offset continuation, DMO, and velocity transform. Two primary approaches exist for inverting such operators. The first approach is iterative least-squares optimization, which involves the construction of the adjoint operator. The second approach is asymptotic invers...

A Classifier Ensemble combines a finite number of classifiers of same kind or different, trained simultaneously for a common classification task. The Ensemble efficiently improves the generalization ability of the classifier compared to a single classifier. Stacking is one of the most influential ensemble techniques that applies a two level structure of classification namely the base classifier...

Abstract In the present paper, fundamental frequency optimization of symmetrically laminated composite plates is studied using the combination of Elitist-Genetic algorithm (E-GA) and finite strip method (FSM). The design variables are the number of layers, the fiber orientation angles, edge conditions and plate length/width ratios. The classical laminated plate theory is used to calculate the n...

The objective of the work was to investigate statistical analysis of fracture toughness of the glass fiber reinforced composites at different stacking sequences, strain rate and crack length. The glass reinforced vinylester composites prepared by hand layup technique with stacking sequences of 0/90, 45/-45 and chopped strand orientations. 3point bending for fracture toughness test for various n...

Solving of combinatorial optimization problems is a common practice in real-life engineering applications. Trusses, cranes, and composite laminated structures are some good examples that fall under this category problems. Those have feature discrete design domain turn them into set NP-hard Determining the right algorithm for such precious point tends to impact overall cost process. Furthermore,...
