A mathematical approach to multiple genetic relationships
Theoretical Population Biology, 1982Abstract A fundamental concept in the treatment of genetic relationships is that of gene identity which first was introduced by Cotterman (1940) . Based on this notion several measures of relationship evolved such as the inbreeding coefficient, the coefficient of kinship, and the identity coefficients; by means of these quantities joint and ...

A mathematical model of cell death in multiple sclerosis
Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 2011This paper imparts a mathematical model of multiple sclerosis (MS) that was created using Biochemical Systems Theory (BST). This method uses mechanisms and initial values from the literature to create a mathematical model of a disease. The model can then be used to test potential drug therapies and to detect possible trigger points for the disease. The

Multiple-choice tests: pure mathematics
1985In multiple-choice papers a large number of questions have to be done in the allocated time. Hence,it is essential to work quickly and to recognize any possible short cuts. In this chapter the two main styles of multiple-choice question are considered in detail and the various methods of approach are described.

The Indispensability Argument and Multiple Foundations for Mathematics
The Philosophical Quarterly, 2003One recent trend in the philosophy of mathematics has been to approach the central epistemological and metaphysical issues concerning mathematics from the perspective of the applications of mathematics to describing the world, especially within the context of empirical science.

Multiple-choice tests: applied mathematics
1985In multiple-choice papers a large number of questions have to be done in the allocated time. Hence, it is essential to work quickly and to recognize any possible short cuts. In this chapter the two main styles of multiple-choice question are considered in detail and the various methods of approach described.

Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching Fraction Multiplication
Cognition and Instruction, 2008The present study contrasts mathematical knowledge that two sixth-grade teachers apparently used when teaching fraction multiplication with the Connected Mathematics Project materials. The analysis concentrated on those tasks from the materials that use drawings to represent fractions as length or area quantities.

Multiplicative bases approach in mathematical cybernetics
Proceedings of the 12th IAPR International Conference on Pattern Recognition (Cat. No.94CH3440-5), 2002Multiplicative bases supply an efficient mathematical apparatus for solving various applied problems of pattern recognition, machine learning, threshold logic, finite-state automata, finite-time systems. The essence of such approach consists in finite-group-coding of finite values of features, classes, truth values, states, instants of time.

Challenging Mathematics with Multiple Solution Tasks and Mathematical Investigations in Geometry
2014In this chapter, I analyze multiple solution tasks (MSTs) and mathematical investigations (MIs) and the interplay between them. I argue that MSTs and MIs are effective instructional tools for balancing the level of mathematical challenge in the mathematics classroom and, thus, for realizing students’ mathematical potential at different levels ...
