We investigate overlap fluctuations of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field spin glass model in the framework of the Random Overlap Structure (ROSt). The concept of ROSt has been introduced recently by Aizenman and coworkers, who developed a variational approach to the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model. We propose here an iterative procedure to show that, in the so-called Boltzmann ROSt, Aizenman...

In this work we study overlap degrees expressed in terms of overlap functions. We present the basic properties that from our point of view must satisfy these overlap functions. We study a construction method, we analyze which t-norms are also overlap functions and we prove that if we apply particular aggregations to such functions we recover the overlap index between fuzzy sets as defined by Du...

hyperspectral sensors provide a large number of spectral bands. this massive and complex data structure of hyperspectral images presents a challenge to traditional data processing techniques. therefore, reducing the dimensionality of hyperspectral images without losing important information is a very important issue for the remote sensing community. we propose to use overlap-based feature weigh...

B-type cyclins promote mitotic entry and inhibit mitotic exit. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, four B-type cyclins, Clb1-4, carry out essential mitotic roles, with substantial but incomplete overlap of function among them. Previous work in many organisms has indicated that B-type cyclin-dependent inhibition of mitotic exit imposes a requirement for mitotic destruction of B-type cyclins. For instan...

In this paper we show that a membrane skeleton associated with the plasma membrane of the unicellular organism Euglena consists of approximately 40 individual S-shaped strips that overlap along their lateral margins. The region of strip overlap is occupied by a set of microtubule-associated bridges and microtubule-independent bridges. Both cell form and plasma membrane organization are dependen...

One-nucleon overlap functions required for various nucleon-removal calculations must be solutions of the inhomogeneous equation with a source term whose shape and strength are determined by nuclear wave functions and the effective interaction of the removed nucleon with the nucleons in the remainder nucleus. A number of previous works has reported calculations of the source term and the overlap...

Overlap functions for one-nucleon removal are calculated as solutions of the inhomogeneous equation. The source term for this equation is generated by the 0h̄ω no-core shell-model wave functions and the effective nucleon-nucleon (NN ) interactions that fit oscillator matrix elements derived from the NN scattering data. For the lightest A 4 nuclei this method gives reasonable agreement with exact...

A new device for removing silver points was evaluated. The instrument consists of a trepan bur to expose the end of the silver point and a hollow tube which fits over the exposed tip and is bonded to it with cyanoacrylate adhesive. Twenty groups with 10 extractors and silver points in each group were tested for adhesive strength with respect to overlap between extractor and silver point, snugne...

We propose a net-based hierarchical macrocell placement such that “net placement” dictates the cell placement. The proposed approach has four phases. 1) Net clustering and net-level floorplanning phase: A weighted net dependency graph is built from the input register-transfer-level netlist. Clusters of nets are then formed by clique partitioning and a net-cluster level floorplan is obtained by ...

PD-loop complexes formed by bisPNA openers and a mixed-base (mb) oligonucleotide on double-stranded (ds) DNA enable various diagnostic and biotechnological manipulations with linear DNA duplexes [1–5]. So far, the PD-loop formation requires the use of two homopyrimidine bisPNA oligomers to open the DNA duplex for binding an oligonucleotide [6]. This condition imposes certain sequence limitation...
