Foamed concrete is special not only in terms of its unique properties, but also challenging compositional mixture design, which necessitates multiple experimental trials before obtaining the desired property like compressive strength. Regardless design challenges, artificial intelligence (AI) techniques have shown to be useful reliably estimating properties based on optimized proportions. This ...

Water pollution is an increasing global issue that societies are facing and threating human health, ecosystem functions agriculture production. The distinguished features of artificial intelligence (AI) based modeling can deliver a deep insight pertaining to rising water quality concerns. current study investigates the predictive performance gene expression programming (GEP), neural network (AN...

DNA chips perform the rapid, parallel detection of a target set of gene transcripts through specific hybridization of targets to DNA probes integrated on the chip surface [1]. A DNA chip can thus be considered as a special purpose DNA computer for parallel homology search. Conventional DNA chips rely solely on hybridization for transcript detection. As a result, the recognition process for geno...

Transcription factors (TFs) are critical for B-cell differentiation, affecting gene expression both by repression and transcriptional activation. Still, this information is not used for classification of B-cell lymphomas (BCLs). Traditionally, BCLs are diagnosed based on a phenotypic resemblance to normal B-cells; assessed by immunohistochemistry or flow cytometry, by using a handful of phenoty...

We conducted comprehensive gene expression profiling (GEP) of primary pulmonary mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma (n = 33) and compared the results to GEP of other B- and T-cell lymphomas and normal lymphocytes to identify novel markers and deregulated pathways. MALT has a prominent T-cell signature and a marginal zone/memory B-cell profile. Four novel transcripts were specifica...

The Oncotype DX® recurrence score (RS) predictor has been clinically utilized to appropriately select adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive early breast cancer. However, the selection of chemotherapy for patients with intermediate RSs remains controversial. We assessed the prognostic value of a 70-gene signature (70GS) among patients with ER-positive breast can...

BACKGROUND Gene expression profiling of whole blood may be useful for monitoring toxicological exposure and for diagnosis and monitoring of various diseases. Several methods are available that can be used to transport, store, and extract RNA from whole blood, but it is not clear which procedures alter results. In addition, characterization of interindividual and sex-based variation in gene expr...

Canal lining is customarily used to raise water-use effectiveness and reduce seepage loss. The major water losses in an irrigation channel are due leakage evaporation. Egyptian General Integrated Management for Water Resources Irrigation introduced a proposal the Al-Hagar canal based on these losses. This study investigates effect of flow characteristics, compares before after introducing linin...

Generation Expansion Planning (GEP) is one of the most important decision-making activities in electric utilities. Least-cost GEP is to determine the minimum-cost capacity addition plan (i.e., the type and number of candidate plants) that meets forecasted demand within a pre specified reliability criterion over a planning horizon. In this paper, Differential Evolution (DE), and Oppositionbased ...

PurposeBlood gene expression profile (GEP) is being used for non-invasive surveillance of T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) in orthotopic heart transplant (OHT). While blood GEP presented as an ordinal score to clinicians, it a summary quantification 11 different mRNA levels relevant TCMR. Whether the circulating individual genes are pathways that occur tissue (Molecular Microscopy Diagnostic Sy...
