Evolving Molecular Cloud Structure and the Column Density Probability Distribution Function [PDF]
The structure of molecular clouds can be characterized with the probability distribution function (PDF) of the mass surface density. In particular, the properties of the distribution can reveal the nature of the turbulence and star formation present ...

Convex Optimization on Functionals of Probability Densities [PDF]
In information theory, some optimization problems result in convex optimization problems on strictly convex functionals of probability densities.In this note, we study these problems and show conditions of minimizers and the uniqueness of the minimizer if there exist a minimizer.

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Probability Density Function of Longitudinal Velocity Increment in Homogeneous Turbulence
Two conditional averages for the longitudinal velocity increment u_r of the simulated turbulence are calculated: h(u_r) is the average of the increment of the longitudinal Laplacian velocity field with u_r fixed, while g(u_r) is the corresponding one of ...

Properties of Probability Density Functions [PDF]
The physical processes we study in this text are modeled using models including stochastic terms. Direct numerical simulations based on such stochastic models give results that are hard to interpret and it is therefore common to run many simulations and compute the average, and we have also seen that we can derive models governing the probability ...

The power of microRNA regulation—insights into immunity and metabolism
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 ...

Unwrapped Phase Estimation via Normalized Probability Density Function for Multibaseline InSAR
Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) is a powerful technique for obtaining terrain information based on the interferometric phase. Multibaseline (MB) InSAR is an extension of the conventional InSAR and is used to improve the estimation ...

Not All Probability Density Functions Are Tomograms
This paper delves into the significance of the tomographic probability density function (pdf) representation of quantum states, shedding light on the special classes of pdfs that can be tomograms. Instead of using wave functions or density operators on Hilbert spaces, tomograms, which are the true pdfs, are used to completely describe the states of ...

Social context prevents heat hormetic effects against mutagens during fish development
This study shows that sublethal heat stress protects fish embryos against ultraviolet radiation, a concept known as ‘hormesis’. However, chemical stress transmission between fish embryos negates this protective effect. By providing evidence for the mechanistic molecular basis of heat stress hormesis and interindividual stress communication, this study ...
