Analysis and Improvement of Fireworks Algorithm [PDF]

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2017
The Fireworks Algorithm is a recently developed swarm intelligence algorithm to simulate the explosion process of fireworks. Based on the analysis of each operator of Fireworks Algorithm (FWA), this paper improves the FWA and proves that the improved algorithm converges to the global optimal solution with probability 1.

Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Convergence Analysis of the FOCUSS Algorithm

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems, 2015
FOCal Underdetermined System Solver (FOCUSS) is a powerful tool for sparse representation and underdetermined inverse problems, which is extremely easy to implement. In this paper, we give a comprehensive convergence analysis on the FOCUSS algorithm towards establishing a systematic convergence theory by providing three primary contributions as follows.

Analysis of accelerated gossip algorithms [PDF]

open access: yesAutomatica, 2009
This paper investigates accelerated gossip algorithms for distributed computations in networks where shift-registers are utilized at each node. By using tools from matrix analysis, we prove the existence of the desired acceleration and establish the fastest rate of convergence in expectation for two-register symmetric gossip.

The role of miR‐335‐5p in the redifferentiation of BRAF p.V600E thyroid cancers

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The BRAF p.V600E mutation promotes thyroid cancer dedifferentiation and radioiodine resistance. Using a network approach, we identified miR‐335‐5p as a key regulator of BRAF‐mutated thyroid tumors. Restoring miR‐335‐5p increased thyroid‐specific gene expression and iodine uptake in cells and organoids.
