An extended inequality approach for evaluating decision making units with a single output
Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2017 In this work, an extended evaluation approach for decision making units (DMUs) with a single output is proposed. Firstly, the input and output data for each DMU are changed in the same proportion until all the outputs are equal, and then the coordinate ...

The Redheffer Matrix of a Partially Ordered Set [PDF]
The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2004 R. Redheffer described an $n\times n$ matrix of 0's and 1's the size of whose determinant is connected to the Riemann Hypothesis. We describe the permutations that contribute to its determinant and its permanent in terms of integer factorizations. We generalize the Redheffer matrix to finite posets that have a 0 element and find the analogous results ...

Going viral − Virus‐targeting nanobodies for research, diagnostics and therapy
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The increasing prevalence of viral diseases represents a major threat for global human health. Nanobodies, small binding fragments derived from camelid heavy‐chain antibodies, offer versatile tools for viral research, diagnostics, and antiviral therapy.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Vacuolar H+‐ATPase (V‐ATPase) is a multisubunit rotary proton pump that acidifies intracellular compartments. Using elastic network models, we identified conserved hinge residues that govern its large‐scale functional motions. We show that intrinsically encoded ‘soft modes’ drive critical functional transitions, including rotary catalysis and ...

Soft constraints with partially ordered preferences
, 2004 This paper constructs a logic of soft constraints where the set of degrees of preference forms a partially ordered set. When the partially ordered set is a distributive lattice, this reduces to the idempotent semiring-based CSP approach, and the lattice ...

On the dimension of partially ordered sets
Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 1977 AbstractA generalization of the concept of dimension of a poset, the stable dimension, is introduced, and it is shown that there is a simple procedure for determining its value. No such procedure is known for the dimension itself. The main theorem shows that the stable dimension is equal to the maximum number of elements in a pair of antichains of the ...

Asymptotic enumeration of partially ordered sets [PDF]
Pacific Journal of Mathematics, 1980 The author define the entropy function S( ρ)=Lim n- ∞ 2n −2 lnN (n, ρ ), where N(n, ρ ) is the number of distinct partial order relations which may be defined on a set of n elements such that a fraction ρ of the possible n(n−1)/2 pairs are comparable.We derive upper bounds to S(ρ) to show that S(ρ) .699.

Comparing the paths of Hedgehog release in artificial and natural settings
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Hh morphogens require solubilization factors to overcome their tight association with the plasma membrane and signal to distant cells, but the precise functions of these factors are controversial. Here, we use published in vivo observations as the most relevant evidence to test their suggested functions and discuss contradictions and gaps between in ...

How structural disorder and polyelectrolyte properties of prothymosin α enable its large interactome
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In this review, complexes of the fully disordered and highly negatively charged prothymosin α are collected, described, and discussed. Linked to its poly‐electrostatic character, prothymosin α engages a large interactome through multiple different binding modes ranging from fully disordered complexes to short linear motif (SLiM)‐driven interactions ...
