In many computer-implemented signal-processing systems, it is necessary to perform numerical integrations. If the function to be integrated is a band-limited time signal represented by a set of samples, serious distortion can occur if the wrong integration technique is used. In particular, if the integration is used to calculate a Fourier transform, large error sidelobes will be introduced if S...

Phylogenetic methods are becoming part of the standard methodologies used in the analyses of biological sequence data, but several of the classical tools of phylogenetic inference were not designed with high throughput applications in mind. During our surveys, we haven't found software for the fast inference of neighbor joining trees from sequence alignments which could use biologically realist...

Spatial memory, among many other brain processes, shows hemispheric lateralization. Most of the published evidence suggests that the right hippocampus plays a leading role in the manipulation of spatial information. Concurrently in the hippocampus, memory consolidation during sleep periods is one of the key steps in the formation of newly acquired spatial memory traces. One of the most characte...

There have been studies that investigated mandibular movements and positioning during swallowing, but the results were inconsistent, and still the exact position of the condyles during swallowing is unknown. The purpose of this investigation was to study the kinematics of the mandible and the condyles, and to determine the actual movement paths and position of mandible and condyles during the p...

in recent years stock exchange has become one of the most attractive and growing businesses in respect of investment and profitability. but applying a scientific approach in this field is really troublesome because of variety and complexity of decision making factors in the field. this paper tries to deliver a new solution for portfolio selection based on multi criteria decision making literatu...

Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence has been considered as one of the common features of 5' end untranslated region (5'UTR) of prokaryotic transcripts. However, more leaderless bacteria and archaea mRNAs are being increasingly reported in recent years. To understand the distribution of SD-led genes and non-SD-led genes, we have analyzed 162 completed prokaryotic genomes leading to various new conclusi...
