Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is an incurable neurodegenerative disorder which mainly affects older adults. An early diagnosis essential because medical treatments can slow down the progression of disease only if provided during first stage, called Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). Starting from study electroencephalografic signals, brain functional connectivity analyses be performed with support gra...

the present note is devoted to establish some extremal results for the zeroth-order general randi'{c} index of cacti, characterize the extremal polyomino chains with respect to the aforementioned index, and hence to generalize two already reported results.

Improved models for predicting viscosities at 20 °C were generated using three different methods for descriptor selection. Data set of 361 diverse organic molecules and their experimental viscosities were used for developing the models. Molecular properties are encoded by 822 initial descriptors computed by the CODESSA program. CODESSA, GFA and CROMRsel methods are capable of selecting good and...

In this paper, we study the discrimination power of graph measures that are based on graph-theoretical matrices. The paper generalizes the work of [M. Dehmer, M. Moosbrugger. Y. Shi, Encoding structural information uniquely with polynomial-based descriptors by employing the Randić matrix, Applied Mathematics and Computation, 268(2015), 164-168]. We demonstrate that by using the new functional m...

Let T ∆ n denote the set of trees of order n, in which the degree of each vertex is bounded by some integer ∆. Suppose that every tree in T ∆ n is equally likely. We show that the number of vertices of degree j in T ∆ n is asymptotically normal with mean (μj + o(1))n and variance (σj + o(1))n, where μj , σj are some constants. As a consequence, we give estimate to the value of the general Zagre...

A QSPR (quantitative structure-property relationship) model for the estimation of the liquid viscosity of a large variety of organic compounds was established using the CODESSA (comprehensive descriptors for structural and statistical analysis) approach. The final model was developed with a calibration set containing 337 compounds. The multilinear regression (MLR) equation that relates ln η to ...
