DST elements are highly conserved sequences located in the 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) of a set of unstable soybean transcripts known as the small auxin-up RNAs (SAURs). To test whether DST sequences could function as mRNA instability determinants in plants, a model system was developed to facilitate the direct measurement of mRNA decay rates in stably transformed cells of tobacco. Initial e...

In engineering scenarios, expert judgments play an essential role in reliability assessment, especially for those systems with few historical data. To achieve a rational result, experts from different areas should be involved, and the uncertainties their assessments properly addressed. Such information is often referred to as multisource imprecise (MSII) might contain high degree of conflicts, ...

In this paper, a hybrid approach for efficiently planning smooth local paths for mobile robot in an unknown environment is presented. The single robot is treated as a multi-agent system, and the corresponding architecture with cooperative control is constructed. And then a new method of information fusion namely DSmT (Dezert-Smarandache Theory) which is an extension of the DST (Dempster-Shafer ...

The multi-sensor fusion can provide more accurate and reliable information compared to information from each sensor separately taken. Moreover, the data from multiple heterogeneous sensors present in the medical surveillance systems have different degrees of uncertainty. Among multi-sensor data fusion techniques, Bayesian methods and evidence theories such as Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST), are c...

The spatial prediction of land cover at the field scale in winter appears useful for the issue of bare soils reduction in agricultural intensive regions. High variability of the factors that motivate the land cover changes between each winter involves integration of uncertainty in the modelling process. Fusion process with Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST) presents some limits in generating errors i...

New method of shaping quantum “particle unparticle” vacuum excitations has been proposed in the framework of unification of relativity and quantum theory. Such unification is based solely on the notion of generalized coherent state (GCS) of N-level system and the geometry of unitary group SU(N) acting in state space C . Initially, neither contradictable notion of quantum particle, nor space-tim...
