Modeling gene regulation in liver hepatocellular carcinoma with random forests
(BioMed Research International, 2016)
Liver hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related death. Poor understanding of the mechanisms underlying HCC prevents early detection and leads to high mortality. We developed a random forest ...
Generating hyperbolical rotation matrix for a given hyperboloid
(Linear Algebra and Its Applications, 2016)
Hyperbolic rotation is hyperbolically the motion of a smooth object on general hyperboloids given by −a1x2+a2y2+a3z2=±λ, λ ∈R+. In this paper, we investigate the hyperbolical rotation matrices in order to get the motion ...
Chemogenomics and orthology‐based design of antibiotic combination therapies
(Molecular Systems Biology, 2016)
Combination antibiotic therapies are being increasingly used in
the clinic to enhance potency and counter drug resistance.
However, the large search space of candidate drugs and dosage
regimes makes the identification ...
Modeling the combined effect of RNA-binding proteins and microRNAs in post-transcriptional regulation
(Nucleic Acids Research, 2016)
Recent studies show that RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) function in coordination with each other to control post-transcriptional regulation (PTR). Despite this, the majority of research to date has ...
Using data mining techniques for profiling profitable hotel customers: an application of RFM analysis
(Tourism Management Perspectives, 2016)
This study focuses on profiling profitable hotel customers by RFM analysis, which is a data mining technique. In RFM analysis, Recency, Frequency and Monetary indicators are employed for discovering the nature of the ...
The development and performance characterization of turbine prototypes for a MEMS spirometer
(IEEE Sensors Journal, 2016)
The design, optimization, and performance characterization of turbine prototypes for the development of a Microelectromechanical Systems spirometer is reported. Four different turbines were designed based on large-scale ...
Quaking promotes monocyte differentiation into pro-atherogenic macrophages by controlling pre-mRNA splicing and gene expression
(Nature Communications, 2016)
A hallmark of inflammatory diseases is the excessive recruitment and influx of monocytes to sites of tissue damage and their ensuing differentiation into macrophages. Numerous stimuli are known to induce transcriptional ...
On conformal curves in 2-dimensional de sitter space
(Advances in Applied Clifford Algebras, 2016)
In this paper, we examine the pseudo-spherical curves, which are equivalent to each other under the conformal maps preserving a fixed point in the de Sitter 2-space, by using the Clifford algebra Cl 2,1. Also, we find the ...
A comprehensive database of high-throughput sequencing-based RNA secondary structure probing data (structure surfer)
(BMC Bioinformatics, 2016)
Background: RNA molecules fold into complex three-dimensional shapes, guided by the pattern of hydrogen bonding between nucleotides. This pattern of base pairing, known as RNA secondary structure, is critical to their ...
Inferring RBP-mediated regulation in lung squamous cell carcinoma
(Plos One, 2016)
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play key roles in post-transcriptional regulation of mRNAs. Dysregulations in RBP-mediated mechanisms have been found to be associated with many steps of cancer initiation and progression. Despite ...
