Fuzzy Clustering with Uninorm-Based Distance Measure
MathematicsIn this paper, we suggest an algorithm of fuzzy clustering with a uninorm-based distance measure. The algorithm follows a general scheme of fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering, but in contrast to the existing algorithm, it implements logical distance between ...

Consistent Estimation of Partition Markov Models
Entropy, 2017 The Partition Markov Model characterizes the process by a partition L of the state space, where the elements in each part of L share the same transition probability to an arbitrary element in the alphabet.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Clustering Methods Using Distance-Based Similarity Measures of Single-Valued Neutrosophic Sets
Journal of Intelligent Systems, 2014 Clustering plays an important role in data mining, pattern recognition, and machine learning. Single-valued neutrosophic sets (SVNSs) are useful means to describe and handle indeterminate and inconsistent information that fuzzy sets and intuitionistic ...

IEEE Access, 2020 As a combination of q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets (q-ROFSs) and hesitant fuzzy sets (HFSs), q-rung orthopair hesitant fuzzy sets (q-ROHFSs) are more effective, powerful, and meaningful in solving the complexity, ambiguity, and expert hesitancy of ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.
