This article introduces the history and the long-term goals of the Korea Brain Initiative, which is centered on deciphering the brain functions and mechanisms that mediate the integration and control of brain functions that underlie decision-making. The goal of this initiative is the mapping of a functional connectome with searchable, multi-dimensional, and information-integrated features. The ...

The Xylella fastidiosa comparative genomic database is a scientific resource with the aim to provide a user-friendly interface for accessing high-quality manually curated genomic annotation and comparative sequence analysis, as well as for identifying and mapping prophage-like elements, a marked feature of Xylella genomes. Here we describe a database and tools for exploring the biology of this ...

When extending a scientific knowledge base with new information, particularly information presented in natural language, it is important that the information be encoded in a form that is compatible with the existing knowledge base. Hand built systems for semantic interpretation and knowledge integration can suffer from brittleness. Methods for learning semantic interpretation and integration ex...

We provide scientific background information and personal accounts relating to our publication of "Microstructural and Physiological Features of Tissues Elucidated by Quantitative-Diffusion-Tensor MRI" in the Journal of Magnetic Resonance B. This paper provided a framework for measuring and mapping intrinsic features of diffusion anisotropy obtained from diffusion tensor MRI (DTI) data.

we prove a strong convergence result for a sequence generated by halpern's type iteration for approximating a common fixed point of a countable family of quasi-lipschitzian mappings in a real hilbert space. consequently, we apply our results to the problem of finding a common fixed point of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings, an equilibrium problem, and a variational inequality problem for co...

Article history: Received 12 October 2008 Received in revised form 8 March 2010 Accepted 11 March 2010 Available online 23 March 2010 Provenance metadata has become increasingly important to support scientific discovery reproducibility, result interpretation, and problem diagnosis in scientific workflow environments. The provenance management problem concerns the efficiency and effectiveness of...

Objective. The purpose of this work is to analyse the knowledge structure and trends in scientific research in the Online Information Reviews journal by bibliometric analysis of key words and social network analysis of co-words. Methods.

Interdisciplinary collaboration between researchers from different fields is often hampered by different wordings and terminologies as well as the varying utilization of similar concepts. Empirical research has shown that a visualization of thematic interfaces between the researchers in a Cluster of Excellence is a possible approach to support scientific collaboration processes. As one possible...
