A substantial volume of research is devoted to studies of community structure in networks, but communities are not the only possible form of large-scale network structure. Here, we describe a broad extension of community structure that encompasses traditional communities but includes a wide range of generalized structural patterns as well. We describe a principled method for detecting this gene...

Many RNA structures are assembled from a collection of RNA motifs, which appear repeatedly and in various combinations. Identification of RNA structural motifs will enhance our understanding of RNA structures and functions. Searching for secondary structural patterns in sequence databases is the basic technique and fundamental problem for extracting and identifying such motifs. A number of algo...

Automatic arrangement is the problem of transforming an input score into a full orchestration, e.g. realized with samples. A subproblem, on which arrangement depends, is to establish the dynamic levels of individual parts, their articulations, and how parts are to align. A new kind of structural analysis is described: the interpretation of music means the delineation of existing structure, so t...

When analyzing the statistical and topological characteristics of complex networks, an effective and convenient way is to compute the centralities for recognizing influential and significant nodes or structures. Centralities for nodes are widely researched to depict the networks from a certain perspective and perform great efficiency, yet most of them are restricted to local environment or some...

Analyzing protein-RNA binding structures depends on a significant quantity of manual work. Therefore, the protein-RNA binding structures are generally studied individually or on a small-scale. The task of analyzing the protein-RNA binding structures manually becomes increasingly difficult as the complexity and number of protein-RNA binding structures increase. We have developed a set of algorit...

The author considers specific features of software and methods of operation applied in two machine translation systems based on a common linguistic approach and intended to translate texts from English and German into Russian on an industrial scale. He describes the software structural pattern and linguistic tools used in the systems, as well as structures of specialised information files and t...

Abstractions and landmarks are two powerful mechanisms for devising admissible heuristics forions and landmarks are two powerful mechanisms for devising admissible heuristics for classical planning. Here we aim at putting them together by integrating landmark information into abstractions, and propose a concrete realization ofions, and propose a concrete realization of this direction suitable f...

The ever increasing amount of data and computational capabilities in the cheminformatics field has led to a scenario where efficient techniques for storage and processing in an integrated, modular, and easily accessible platform are in vital demand. Here, we present ChemicalToolBoX, a compilation of more than 30 tools integrated into a single computational chemistry and cheminformatics platform...

To better understand and characterize the emerging social medium of microblogging we conducted a comparison between Twitter and a weblog network for their respective information diffusion structures. We found systematic differences between the two social media in their contribution, navigation, and interactive structural patterns. Findings revealed the unique role and characteristics of microbl...

Do structural patterns tell us something about the text content? In order to give a preliminary answer to this question, an experiment in automatic text classification is performed using only surface-structural features. The features extracted – as, e.g., the complexity, length or depth of text constituents (Köhler, 1999), – produced surprisingly good classification results. This finding argues...
