On mathematical structures on pairwise comparisons matrices with coefficients in an abstract group arising from quantum gravity

open access: yesHeliyon, 2019
We describe the mathematical properties of pairwise comparisons matrices with coefficients in an arbitrary group. Inspired by the well-known mathematical structures of quantum gravity and lattice gauge theories in physics and by the application of this ...

Brain-Like Approximate Reasoning [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Workshops in Computing, 2008
Humans can easily recognize objects as complex as faces even if they have not seen them in such conditions before. We would like to find out computational basis of this ability. As an example of our approach we use the neurophysiological data from the visual system.

Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Z-Distance Based IF-THEN Rules

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2016
Decision making, reasoning, and analysis in real-world problems are complicated by imperfect information. Real-world imperfect information is mainly characterized by two features. In view of this, Professor Zadeh suggested the concept of a Z-number as an

‘Guide and Prejudice’— How Argonautes recognize targets across domains of life

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Argonaute proteins use short nucleic‐acid guides to locate and regulate specific targets across all domains of life. Despite striking diversity—from human gene silencing to bacterial immune defence—all Argonautes share a conserved three‐stage recognition logic: guide‐directed sampling, progressive target pairing with a conformational checkpoint and ...

A distance-based framework for inconsistency-tolerant reasoning and inconsistency measurement in DL-Lite

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, we present a distance-based framework for DL-Lite based on the notion of features. Within this framework, we propose a distance-based paraconsistent semantics for DL-Lite where meaningful conclusions can be rationally drawn even from an ...

Extensionality based approximate reasoning [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The aim of this paper is to analyze Approximate Reasoning (AR) through extensionality with respect to the natural T-indistinguishability operator, by considering the indistinguishability level between fuzzy sets as a formal measure of its degree of ...

Prospecting the protein design landscape

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review outlines the current state of various protein design approaches. We discuss the current possibilities enabled by recently released tools, highlight future avenues to pursue in protein design, and underscore the crucial role of key databases and resources for successful protein design workflows.

Neural algorithmic reasoning for approximate -coloring with recursive warm starts

open access: yesMachine Learning: Science and Technology
Node coloring is the task of assigning colors to the nodes of a graph such that no two adjacent nodes have the same color, while using as few colors as possible.

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...
