OBJECTIVES: An unfortunate reality of laboratory medicine is that blood specimens collected from one patient occasionally get mislabeled with identifiers from a different patient, resulting in so-called "wrong blood in tube" (WBIT) errors and potenti...
Timely and accurate information about floating macroalgae blooms (MAB), including their distribution, movement, and duration, is crucial in order for local government and residents to grasp the whole picture, and then plan effectively to restrain eco...
MOTIVATION: Motif discovery in large biopolymer sequence datasets can be computationally demanding, presenting significant challenges for discovery in omics research. MEME, arguably one of the most popular motif discovery software, takes quadratic ti...
The Debye-Waller factor, a measure of X-ray attenuation, can be experimentally observed in protein X-ray crystallography. Previous theoretical models have made strong inroads in the analysis of beta (B)-factors by linearly fitting protein B-factors f...

Multifunctional genes are important genes because of their essential roles in human cells. Studying and analyzing multifunctional genes can help understand disease mechanisms and drug discovery. We propose a computational method for scoring gene mult...

Discerning how a mutation affects the stability of a protein is central to the study of a wide range of diseases. Mutagenesis experiments on physical proteins provide precise insights about the effects of amino acid substitutions, but such studies ar...
Studies of Boolean recurrent neural networks are briefly introduced with an emphasis on the attractor dynamics determined by the sequence of distinct attractors observed in the limit cycles. We apply this framework to a simplified model of the basal ...
In plastic neuronal networks, the synaptic strengths are adapted to the neuronal activity. Specifically, spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) is a fundamental mechanism that modifies the synaptic strengths based on the relative timing of pre- and...
The multistable behavior of neural networks is actively being studied as a landmark of ongoing cerebral activity, reported in both functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) and electro- or magnetoencephalography recordings. This consists of a cont...
