Subtractive photonics is presented as a method for implementing photonic waveguides into any bulk CMOS or electronics process. Metal and glass are patterned in the backend layers by foundry to reveal suspended dielectric when metal etched away. This requires simple wet etch provides waveguiding of light up visible regime using broad transparency windows silicon oxides. Mechanical, chemical, con...

Most learning systems applied to problem solving have the goal of learning knowledge for solving problems more eeciently. However, very few systems have focused on the acquisition of planning operator descriptions. In this paper, we present a system that learns operator deenitions from the interaction with a completely unknown environment. In order to achieve better learning convergence, severa...

Improving Imbalanced Data Classification Accuracy by using Fuzzy Similarity Measure and Subtractive Clustering

Comparison of DNA from virulent strains of bacterial pathogens with DNA from less virulent or avirulent close relatives allows the identification of those genomic regions that are present only in virulent strains. Such regions are often associated with pathogenicity islands (PIs) and their characterisation can lead to a greater understanding of the pathogenesis of infectious diseases. There is ...

Here we describe a reliable method for isolating genes that are differentially expressed in two cell populations. The method is a combination of subtractive hybridization and PCR. Among many improvements to previously described methods is the incorporation of a new technology into the procedure which sterilizes(inactivates) PCR amplicons, and thereby overcomes the limitation of similar procedur...

Suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) is a widely used method for separating DNA molecules that distinguish two closely related DNA samples. Two of the main SSH applications are cDNA subtraction and genomic DNA subtraction. In fact, SSH is one of the most powerful and popular methods for generating subtracted cDNA or genomic DNA libraries. The SSH method is based on a suppression PCR effe...
