Ulva zoospores preferentially settle on N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL) producing marine bacterial biofilms. To investigate whether AHL signal molecules also affect the success and rate of zoospore germination in addition to zoospore attraction, the epiphytic bacteria associated with mature Ulva linza were characterized and bacterial isolates representative of this community tested for the abili...

T he one-day symposium Gut in Focus, which was held at the Karolinska Institutet on February 2nd, 2015, focused on certain aspects related to the gut, by far the largest organ of the body. When I started studying medicine more than 60 years ago, I heard two statements about the gut: (1) The gut has a brain, if not a mind, of its own and (2) Bacteria constitute up to 50 per cent of feces’ mass a...

Thematic maps in the context of information retrieval are tools that graphically present documents and characterising terms. We investigated the usefulness of thematic maps in a laboratory experiment comparing a thematic map with a command language interface. Six subjects solved eight search tasks producing ten hours of logged and tape-recorded data. The experiment revealed no improvement in th...

Mechanisms for overcoming semantic heterogeneity in diverse information sources are critical components of any interoperable system. In the case of diverse geographic information sources, such mechanisms present particular difficulties since the semantic structure of geographic information cannot be considered independently of its spatial structure. This paper develops an approach to the integr...

prediction, diagnosis, recovery and recurrence of the breast cancer among the patients are always one of the most important challenges for explorers and scientists. nowadays by using of the bioinformatics sciences, these challenges can be eliminated by using of the previous information of patients records. in this paper has been used adaptive nero fuzzy inference system and data mining techniqu...

compute thematic fit for pairs relying only on distributional information (no information about semantic types) compare thematic fit differences across conditions and processing cost differences (high processing cost → low thematic fit, corresponding to 1-thematic fit in the model) verify if the computational model yields the same main effects and pairwise differences reported by t...
