On the geometric mean method for incomplete pairwise comparisons

open access: yes, 2019
When creating the ranking based on the pairwise comparisons very often, we face difficulties in completing all the results of direct comparisons. In this case, the solution is to use the ranking method based on the incomplete PC matrix.

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Revisiting Some Relationships Between the Weighted Spectral Mean and the Wasserstein Mean

open access: yesMathematics
In this paper, we introduce the 2-geometric mean and explore its connections with the spectral geometric mean and the Wasserstein mean for positive definite matrices.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Level set approach for fractional mean curvature flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper is concerned with the study of a geometric flow whose law involves a singular integral operator. This operator is used to define a non-local mean curvature of a set.

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

A probabilistic method for gradient estimates of some geometric flows

open access: yes, 2015
In general, gradient estimates are very important and necessary for deriving convergence results in different geometric flows, and most of them are obtained by analytic methods.

A Geometric Approach to $k$-means

open access: yesCoRR, 2022
\kmeans clustering is a fundamental problem in many scientific and engineering domains. The optimization problem associated with \kmeans clustering is nonconvex, for which standard algorithms are only guaranteed to find a local optimum. Leveraging the hidden structure of local solutions, we propose a general algorithmic framework for escaping ...

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Bias Reduction in Robust Mean–Geometric Mean Linking via SIMEX

open access: yesAlgorithms
Robust mean–geometric mean (MGM) linking is a method for comparing the performance of two groups on a test involving dichotomous items and is particularly suited to settings with fixed and sparse differential item functioning (DIF).
