Page 7020, Figure 5. The reported molecular hydrophobicity potential (MHP) values of the carbonylated residues aminoadipic semialdehyde (Asa) and glutamic semialdehyde (Gsa) were calculated using a different procedure than MHP values of canonical residues. Briefly, the former were calculated for amino acid side chain analogs, while the latter were calculated for complete amino acids with subseq...

ystem identification is mainly the process of improving a mathematical modeling of a physical system using experimental data. In this paper, a new hybrid wavelet neural network is proposed for the system identification purposes. The Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA) is a new evolutionary algorithm which recently introduced and has a good performance in different optimization problems. The GS...

The pathogenesis of the spontaneous glomerulonephritis of NZB and (NZB x NZW) F(1) hybrid mice is related at least in part to the formation of natural antibody against antigens of the G (Gross) system, and apparently to the deposition in the glomeruli of immune complexes of G natural antibody with G soluble antigen (GSA), type-specific antigen specified by wild-type Gross leukemia virus. G natu...

In recent years, various heuristic optimization methods have been developed. Many of these methods are inspired by swarm behaviors in nature. In this paper, a new optimization algorithm based on the law of gravity and mass interactions is introduced. In the proposed algorithm, the searcher agents are a collection of masses which interact with each other based on the Newtonian gravity and the la...

Suramin acts as a G protein inhibitor because it inhibits the rate-limiting step in activation of the Ga subunit, i.e., the exchange of GDP for GTP. Here, we have searched for analogues that are selective for Gsa. Two compounds have been identified: NF449 (4,4*,4(,4*(-[carbonyl-bis[imino-5,1,3benzenetriyl bis-(carbonylimino)]]tetrakis-(benzene-1,3disulfonate) and NF503 (4,4*-[carbonylbis[imino-...

By inhibiting techniques using indirect immunofluorescence tests and indirect immunoelectron microscopy, the G(Gross) soluble antigens (GSA) in the body fluids of AKR and C58 mice, which have a high incidence of spontaneous leukemia, were classified according to the known specificity of G antigens in the murine Gross leukemia system. GSA existing in the plasma of nonleukemic and leukemic AKR mi...

Many mathematical and computational models used in engineering produce multivariate output that shows some degree of correlation. However, conventional approaches to Global Sensitivity Analysis (GSA) assume that the output variable is scalar. These approaches are applied on each output variable leading to a large number of sensitivity indices that shows a high degree of redundancy making the in...

This paper proposes a novel and efficient hybrid algorithm based on combining particle swarm optimization (PSO) and gravitational search algorithm (GSA) techniques, called PSO-GSA. The core of this algorithm is to combine the ability of social thinking in PSO with the local search capability of GSA. Many practical constraints of generators, such as power loss, ramp rate limits, prohibited opera...
