—This paper devises a new means of filter diversification, dubbed multi-fold filter convolution (í µí³œ-FFC), for face recognition. On the assumption that í µí³œ-FFC receives single-scale Gabor filters of varying orientations as input, these filters are self-cross convolved by í µí³œ-fold to instantiate an offspring set. The í µí³œ-FFC flexibility also permits the self-cross convolution amongst...

This B.Sc. project deals with mesh pattern avoidance in permutations. A mesh pattern is a pair p = (τ,R), where τ is a permutation in Sk and R ⊆ J0, kK × J0, kK. The elements of R denote lled boxes in a mesh pattern. For a permutation π to contain a mesh pattern, it has to contain the underlying classical pattern τ , and no points in π can be located in the shaded boxes. In this paper we begin ...

The possibility of health benefits associated with dietary omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (í µí¼”-3 PUFAs) has been described for several chronic conditions, including cardio-vascular, neurodegenerative, and neoplastic diseases. A large body of evidence has emerged over the past years to show the critical role played by inflammation in the pathogenesis of these diseases, previously not con...

In the String & Binders Switch (SBS) model 1,2 a chromatin filament is represented as a self-avoiding (SAW) polymer chain, composed by N beads. Each bead of the chain interacts with diffusing Brownian particles (binders) having a molar concentration c. The scale of their binding energy to a cognate polymer bead is named í µí°¸!"#. The beads of the chain and the binders are subject to Brownian m...
