The direct methods of breaking the phase ambiguity intrinsic in one-wavelength anomalous scattering (OAS) data and MAD phasing are powerful methods in their own rights. In a different context, in addition to their success in phasing OAS data, direct methods can also be useful in the treatment of MAD data. The idea has been tested with the MAD data at 2.5 A resolution from the protein human aden...

The majority of the currently used cosmetics and drugs are natural products-based compounds or their derivatives. This could add weight to the argument that natural based products are inherently better tolerated in the body than synthetic chemicals and have higher chance to be approved as new drugs. The present study was undertaken to analyze a natural product database compared to synthetic che...

We have improved the multiple linear regression (MLR) algorithm for protein secondary structure prediction by combining it with the evolutionary information provided by multiple sequence alignment of PSI-BLAST. On the CB513 dataset, the three states average overall per-residue accuracy, Q(3), reached 76.4%, while segment overlap accuracy, SOV99, reached 73.2%, using a rigorous jackknife procedu...

This research investigates the creation and integration of a comprehensive three-dimensional submarine undersea battlespace visualization (SUBV) with existing platform fire control systems to enhance the weapons fire control decision-making process. Using 3-D visualization to represent undersea environments, mission planners and command and control (C&C) personnel can gain a tactical advantage ...

Making the science and technology of computer music comprehensible to musicians and composers who had little or no background therein was a part of Max Mathews’ genius. In this presentation I will show how a simple diagram led to the essential understanding of Claude Shannon’s sampling theorem, which in turn opened up a conceptual path to composing music for loudspeakers that had nothing to do ...

Diabetes Retinopathy (DR) is an eye disorder that affects the human retina due to increased insulin levels in blood. Early detection and diagnosis of DR essential optimal treatment diabetic patients. The current research develop controls for identifying different characteristics differences colour using classifications. This therapeutic approach describes diabetes recovery from data collected m...

The stability graph method for open stope design is one of the most widely used approaches predicting stopes in underground metalliferous mines. primary purpose this work to propose a new chart, which includes all relevant case histories, and exclude parameters with uncertainties determining number. modified number was achieve goal, Extended Mathews database recalculated compared graph. In stud...

Radiation therapy is increasingly utilised in the management of oesophageal cancer, both in the definitive and adjuvant setting. While surgery has been the mainstay of curative treatment in early and locally advanced oesophageal cancers, 20-30% of patients have microscopically positive resection margins (R1), contributing in part to 5 year survival rates rarely exceeding 40% in surgical series ...

0.4 1.0 0.8 Although the mean values indicate the younger British squad to be slightly taller, lighter and fatter, their ranges, in fact, span the mean American values for each parameter. The throwers, with a mean 16.0% body fat, are the same order of fatness as non-athletic males, reported by Fox and Mathews (1981) to be 16.8%, although Parizkova (1977) found a mean value of 12% for the 20-30 ...
