Modeling the Structure and Dynamics of the Consonant Inventories: A Complex Network Approach [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2008
We study the self-organization of the consonant inventories through a complex network approach. We observe that the distribution of occurrence as well as cooccurrence of the consonants across languages follow a power-law behavior. The co-occurrence network of consonants exhibits a high clustering coefficient.

Consonance of Vibrotactile Chords

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Haptics, 2014
This paper is concerned with the perception of complex vibrotactile stimuli in which a few sinusoidal vibrations with different frequencies are superimposed. We begin with an observation that such vibrotactile signals are analogous to musical chords in which multiple notes are played simultaneously. A set of so-called "vibrotactile chords" are designed

The power of microRNA regulation—insights into immunity and metabolism

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
MicroRNAs are emerging as crucial regulators at the intersection of metabolism and immunity. This review examines how miRNAs coordinate glucose and lipid metabolism while simultaneously modulating T‐cell development and immune responses. Moreover, it highlights how cutting‐edge artificial intelligence applications can identify miRNA biomarkers ...

Speech perception in older hearing impaired listeners: benefits of perceptual training.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Hearing aids (HAs) only partially restore the ability of older hearing impaired (OHI) listeners to understand speech in noise, due in large part to persistent deficits in consonant identification.

Final proposal to encode the Pahawh Hmong script in the UCS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This is a proposal to encode the Pahawh Hmong script in the international character encoding standard Unicode. Pahawh Hmong was published in Unicode Standard version 7.0 in June 2014. The script is said to have been devised in the latter half of the 20c.

Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six

Consonance in music -- the Pythagorean approach revisited [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
The Pythagorean school attributed consonance in music to simplicity of frequency ratios between musical tones. In the last two centuries, the consonance curves developed by Helmholtz, Plompt and Levelt shifted focus to psycho-acoustic considerations in perceiving consonances.
