Mechanism of retrotransfer in conjugation: prior transfer of the conjugative plasmid is required [PDF]
Bacterial conjugation normally involves the unidirectional transfer of DNA from donor to recipient. Occasionally, conjugation results in the transfer of DNA from recipient to donor, a phenomenon known as retrotransfer. Two distinct models have been generally considered for the mechanism of retrotransfer.

Gradient conjugate priors and multi-layer neural networks [PDF]
The paper deals with learning probability distributions of observed data by artificial neural networks. We suggest a so-called gradient conjugate prior (GCP) update appropriate for neural networks, which is a modification of the classical Bayesian update for conjugate priors. We establish a connection between the gradient conjugate prior update and the

Background Many health programs can assess coverage using standardized cluster survey methods, but estimating the coverage of nutrition programs presents a special challenge due to low disease prevalence. Used since 2012, the Semi-Quantitative Evaluation

Bayesian Analysis of Occupational Exposure Data with Conjugate Priors [PDF]
Bayesian analysis is a flexible method that can yield insight into occupational exposures as the methods quantify plausible values for exposure parameters of interest, such as the mean, variance, and specific percentiles of the exposure distribution. We describe three Bayesian analysis methods for the analysis of normally distributed data (e.g.

Variational Bayesian Sparse Signal Recovery With LSM Prior
This paper presents a new sparse signal recovery algorithm using variational Bayesian inference based on the Laplace approximation. The sparse signal is modeled as the Laplacian scale mixture (LSM) prior.

For the hierarchical Poisson and gamma model, we calculate the Bayes posterior estimator of the parameter of the Poisson distribution under Stein's loss function which penalizes gross overestimation and gross underestimation equally and the corresponding

Conjugation of siRNA to macromolecules such as serum albumin has multiple potential benefits, including enhanced extravasation via albumin-mediated transcytosis across endothelial cells and reduced renal clearance.

Accessible precisions for estimating two conjugate parameters using Gaussian probes
We analyze the precision limits for a simultaneous estimation of a pair of conjugate parameters in a displacement channel using Gaussian probes. Having a set of squeezed states as an initial resource, we compute the Holevo Cramér-Rao bound to investigate

Evidence of Extended Thermo-Stability of Typhoid Polysaccharide Conjugate Vaccines
Typhoid conjugate vaccines (TCV) are effective in preventing enteric fever caused by Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi in Southeast Asia and Africa. To facilitate vaccination with the Vi capsular polysaccharide–tetanus toxoid conjugate vaccine, Typbar ...
