From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Fractional Probability Measure and Its Properties [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2010
Based on recent studies by Guy Jumarie [1] which defines probability density of fractional order and fractional moments by using fractional calculus (fractional derivatives and fractional integration), this study expands the concept of probability ...

Visit Probability in Space–Time Prisms Based on Binomial Random Walk

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020
Space–time prisms are used to model the uncertainty of space–time locations of moving objects between (for instance, GPS-measured) sample points. However, not all space–time points in a prism are equally likely and we propose a simple, formal model for ...

Geostationary Orbital Debris Collision Hazard after a Collision

open access: yesAerospace, 2022
Many space objects are densely distributed in the geostationary (GEO) band, and the long-term impact of the collision of GEO spacecraft and space debris on the GEO environment has attracted more and more attention.

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Representing Probability Measures using Probabilistic Processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In the Type-2 Theory of Effectivity, one considers representations of topological spaces in which infinite words are used as "names" for the elements they represent.

The entropy of a mixture of probability distributions

open access: yesEntropy, 2005
If a message can have n different values and all values are equally probable, then the entropy of the message is log(n). In the present paper, we investigate the expectation value of the entropy, for arbitrary probability distribution.

Copulas in Classical Probability Sense

open access: yesمجلة بغداد للعلوم, 2020
Copulas are simply equivalent structures to joint distribution functions. Then, we propose modified structures that depend on classical probability space and concepts with respect to copulas.

Review: P. Billingsley, Convergence of probability measures

open access: yes, 1971
The author's preface gives an outline: "This book is about weakconvergence methods in metric spaces, with applications sufficient to show their power and utility.

Mutual information of population codes and distance measures in probability space. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2001
We studied the mutual information between a stimulus and a system consisting of stochastic, statistically independent elements that respond to a stimulus.
