this investigation was conducted to compare the genetic variation of alfalfa syn0 vs syn1 and ghara yonja (parental cultivar) using seed storage proteins. results of electrophoresis sds-page in seed storage protein, indicated that there are no significant differences between the means of distance intra-population obtained for syn0 and ghara yonja (0.274 ± 0.0045, 0.270 ± 0.0081, respectively) a...

scott and szewczyk in technometrics, 2001, have introduced a similarity measure for twodensities f1 and f2 , by1, 21 21 1 2 2( , ), ,f fsim f ff f f f< >=< >< >wheref1, f2 f1(x, θ1)f2(x, θ2)dx.+∞−∞< >=∫sim(f1, f2) has some appropriate properties that can be suitable measures for the similarity of f1 and f2 .however, due to some restrictions on the value of parameters and the kind of densities, ...

Similarity measures play a key role in the Semantic Web perspective. Indeed, most of the ontology related operations such as ontology learning, ontology alignment, ontology ranking and ontology population are grounded on the notion of similarity. In the last few years several similarity functions have been proposed for measuring both concept similarity and ontology similarity. However, they lac...

Entity Set Expansion is an important task for open information extraction, which refers to expanding a given partial seed set to a more complete set that belongs to the same semantic class. Many previous researches have proved that the quality of seeds can influence expansion performance a lot since human-input seeds may be ambiguous, sparse etc. In this paper, we propose a novel method which c...

Several classiiiCation and routing methods were implemented and compared. The experiments used FBIS documents from four categories, and the measures used were the tf.idf and Cosine similarity measures, and a maximum likelihood estimate based on assuming a Multinomial Distribution for the various topics (populations). In addition, the SMART program was run with 'lnc.ltc' weighting and compared t...

Deterministic population growth models with power-law rates can exhibit a large variety of growth behaviors, ranging from algebraic, exponential to hyperexponential (finite time explosion). In this setup, selfsimilarity considerations play a key role, together with two time substitutions. Two stochastic versions of such models are investigated, showing a much richer variety of behaviors. One is...

We construct a phenomenological theory of self-localization of directed polymers in d+1 dimensions. In d = 1 we show that the polymer is always self-localized, whereas in d = 2 there is a phase transition between localized and free states. We also map this system to a model of population dynamics with fixed total population. Our previous results translate to static and expanding population clus...

Fluctuations from a hydrodynamic limit of a one-dimensional asymmetric system come at two levels. On the central limit scale n1/2 one sees initial fluctuations transported along characteristics and no dynamical noise. The second order of fluctuations comes from the particle current across the characteristic. For a system made up of independent random walks we show that the second order fluctuat...

31 Working memory representations serve as templates that guide behavior, but the neural 32 basis of these templates remains elusive. We tested the hypothesis that working memory 33 templates are maintained by biasing activity in sensoriperceptual neurons that code for 34 features of items being held in memory. Neural activity was recorded using event-related 35 potentials (ERPs) as participant...
