Scaling Analysis of Affinity Propagation [PDF]
We analyze and exploit some scaling properties of the Affinity Propagation (AP) clustering algorithm proposed by Frey and Dueck (2007). First we observe that a divide and conquer strategy, used on a large data set hierarchically reduces the complexity ${\

Quantitative prediction of multivalent ligand–receptor binding affinities for influenza, cholera, and anthrax inhibition [PDF]
Multivalency achieves strong, yet reversible binding by the simultaneous formation of multiple weak bonds. It is a key interaction principle in biology and promising for the synthesis of high-affinity inhibitors of pathogens. We present a molecular model

Comparing development of synaptic proteins in rat visual, somatosensory, and frontal cortex
Two theories have influenced our understanding of cortical development: the integrated network theory, where synaptic development is coordinated across areas; and the cascade theory, where the cortex develops in a wave-like manner from sensory to non ...

SARS-CoV-2 exposure, symptoms and seroprevalence in healthcare workers in Sweden
Healthcare workers may be at higher risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection than the general population. Here, the authors report 19% seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies among 2,149 employees in a Swedish hospital.

Analyticity of the affinity dimension for planar iterated function systems with matrices which preserve a cone [PDF]
The sub-additive pressure function $P(s)$ for an affine iterated function system (IFS) and the affinity dimension, defined as the unique solution $s_0$ to $P(s_0)=1$, were introduced by K. Falconer in his seminal 1988 paper on self-affine fractals.

Cortical development of AMPA receptor trafficking proteins
AMPA-receptor trafficking plays a central role in excitatory plasticity, especially during development. Changes in the number of AMPA receptors and time spent at the synaptic surface are important factors of plasticity that directly affect long-term ...

'On Affinity Measures for Artificial Immune System Movie Recommenders' [PDF]
. We combine Artificial Immune Systems (AIS) technology with Collaborative Filtering (CF) and use it to build a movie recommendation system. We already know that Artificial Immune Systems work well as movie recommenders from previous work by Cayzer and ...

Discovery of circulating proteins associated to knee radiographic osteoarthritis
Currently there are no sufficiently sensitive biomarkers able to reflect changes in joint remodelling during osteoarthritis (OA). In this work, we took an affinity proteomic approach to profile serum samples for proteins that could serve as indicators ...

The Impact of Affinity on World Economic Integration: The Case of Japanese Foreign Direct Investment [PDF]
This paper finds that a country’s affinity with a foreign country has a positive effect on foreign direct investment flows from it to that country, by analyzing Japanese foreign direct investment outflows during the period of 1995 to 2009.
