An interconnected network features a structural transition between two regimes [F. Radicchi and A. Arenas, Nat. Phys. 9, 717 (2013)]: one where the network components are structurally distinguishable and one where the interconnected network functions as a whole. Our exact solution for the coupling threshold uncovers network topologies with unexpected behaviors. Specifically, we show conditions ...

the biologists now face with the masses of high dimensional datasets generated from various high-throughput technologies, which are outputs of complex inter-connected biological networks at different levels driven by a number of hidden regulatory signals. so far, many computational and statistical methods such as pca and ica have been employed for computing low-dimensional or hidden representat...

in recent years, biodiesel has been considered as a good alternative of diesel fuels. density and viscosity are two important properties of these fuels. in this study, density and kinematic viscosity of biodiesel-diesel blends were estimated by using artificial neural network (ann). a three-layer feed forward neural network with levenberg-marquard (lm) algorithm was used for learning empirical ...

Reducing the number of colors in an image while preserving its quality, is of importance in many applications such as image analysis and compression. It also decreases memory and transmission bandwidth requirements. Moreover, classification of image colors is applicable in image segmentation and object detection and separation, as well as producing pseudo-color images. In this paper, the Kohene...

The main functional purpose of a water distribution network is to transport water from a source to several domestic and industrial units while at the same time satisfying various requirements on hydraulic response. All the water distribution networks perform two basic operations: firstly the water network needs to deliver adequate amounts of water to meet specific requirements, and secondly the...

The task of the ECML/PKDD Discovery Challenge 2008 is to identify spammers in a social bookmarking system. We classify users using three different types of features, based on cooccurences, network properties and url parts. Cooccurrence features are based on the assumption that users associated with similar documents and tags as spammers are likely to be spammers themselves. Network-based featur...

Despite the importance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plant immunity, stress signaling, and development (Mori and Schroeder, 2004; Gadjev et al., 2006), the molecular identities of Ca-permeable channels responding to ROS have not been established. Here, we propose annexins as candidate channel proteins. Elevation of cytoplasmic free calcium ([Ca2+]cyt) as a regulatory step in plant immunit...

In this paper, we describe the architecture of an innovative network processor aiming at the acceleration of packet processing in high speed network interfaces and at the tight coupling of low and high level protocols. The proposed design uses only programmable hardwired components with line rate throughput and is capable of executing protocols and handling efficiently high and low level stream...
