PCF11 links alternative polyadenylation to formation and spontaneous regression of neuroblastoma
2018
AbstractDiversification at the transcriptome 3’end is an important and evolutionarily conserved layer of gene regulation associated with differentiation and dedifferentiation processes. However the underlying mechanisms and functional consequences are poorly defined. Here, we identify extensive transcriptome-3’end-alterations in neuroblastoma, a tumour entity with a paucity of recurrent somatic mutations and an unusually high frequency of spontaneous regression. Utilising extensive RNAi-screening we reveal the landscape and drivers of transcriptome-3’end-diversification, discovering PCF11 as critical regulator, directing alternative polyadenylation (APA) of hundreds of transcripts including…
DSL Tool Development with Transformations and Static Mappings
2009
A tool development framework for domain-specific languages combining mapping and transformation based approaches is proposed in this research project. The combination of both approaches permits to use advantages and eliminate disadvantages as far as possible. First results are described including draft architecture for the framework implementing proposed ideas. A sketch of mapping definition facilities is presented. Initial implementation proposals are described as well. A template based graphical generation language Template MOLA for implementation algorithm description is introduced.
Transformation of the Software Testing Glossary into a Browsable Concept Map
2014
Authors propose a transformation method of the glossary “Standard glossary of terms used in Software Testing” created by ISTQB document into a basic concept map. By applying natural language processing techniques and analyzing the discovered relations between concepts the most essential aspects of the software testing domain are elicited and integrated. As the result a browsable concept map is created. Browsable concept map can be used as a learning support tool.
On the coupling between agent internal and agent/ environmental dynamics: Development of spatial representations in evolving autonomous robots
2008
In this article we describe how a population of evolving robots can autonomously develop forms of spatial representation which allow them to self-localize and to discriminate different locations of their environment by integrating sensory-motor information over time. The evolving robots also display a remarkable ability to generalize their skill in new environmental conditions that they have never experienced before. The analysis of the obtained results indicates that the evolved robots come up with simple and robust solutions that exploit quasi-periodic limit cycle dynamics emerging from the coupling between the robot/environmental dynamics and a robot's internal dynamics. More specifical…
On C1 robust singular transitive sets for three-dimensional flows
1998
Abstract The main goal of this paper is to study robust invariant transitive sets containing singularities for C 1 flows on three-dimensional compact boundaryless manifolds: they are partially hyperbolic with volume expanding central direction. Moreover, they are either attractors or repellers. Robust here means that this property cannot be destroyed by small C 1 -perturbations of the flow.
Pairwise Learning to Rank by Neural Networks Revisited: Reconstruction, Theoretical Analysis and Practical Performance
2020
We present a pairwise learning to rank approach based on a neural net, called DirectRanker, that generalizes the RankNet architecture. We show mathematically that our model is reflexive, antisymmetric, and transitive allowing for simplified training and improved performance. Experimental results on the LETOR MSLR-WEB10K, MQ2007 and MQ2008 datasets show that our model outperforms numerous state-of-the-art methods, while being inherently simpler in structure and using a pairwise approach only.
A generalized transitive closure for relational queries
1988
We augment relational algebra with a generalized transitive closure operator that allows for the efficient evaluation of a subclass of recursive queries. The operator is based on a composition operator which is as general as possible when the operator is required to be associative and when only relational algebra operators are used in its definition. The closure of such a composition can be computed using the well-known efficient algorithms designed for the computation of the usual transitive closure. Besides the case in which complete materialization of recursive relations are required, our strategy also yields an efficient solution in the case in which a selection is applied to the closur…
Rate of growth of frequently hypercyclic functions
2010
AbstractWe study the rate of growth of entire functions that are frequently hypercyclic for the differentiation operator or the translation operator. Moreover, we prove the existence of frequently hypercyclic harmonic functions for the translation operator and we study the rate of growth of harmonic functions that are frequently hypercyclic for partial differentiation operators.
Reliability of Data Transmission of UAVs
2018
Drones have been recently an interesting subject of research due to their roles in accomplishing missions. Flying in a formation fleet, they form a cooperative communication system in order to improve the efficiency of the mission. For this reason, the reliability of the communication is essential to guarantee the overall performance of the fleet although the link conditions, the external factors and the hardware failures of a drone. The drones capture several images or videos of the geographical area of the mission and send them to other drones in the fleet or to the Ground Station Control (GSC). The importance is to ensure that all the data transmitted is received. In this article, we aim…
La Convención de Palermo (UNTOC) y la responsabilidad derivada de delitos de las personas jurídicas: itinerarios e intersecciones del ordenamiento it…
2022
Both the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organised Crime (UNTOC: signed in December 2000 in Palermo) and the Delegation Law no. 300/2000, with its corresponding Legislative Decree no. 231/2001, which jointly introduced in Italy the liability arising from crime for collective entities, mark two "paradigm shifts" for the criminal system. The contribution focuses on the overall value of the two legislative innovations examined in the evolution of criminal law, respectively at the international level and in the Italian context. The interest in analysing their respective contributions is further stimulated by the observation that the two areas, although autonomous, present a sign…
