Learning quantitative sequence-function relationships from massively parallel experiments [PDF]
, 2015 A fundamental aspect of biological information processing is the ubiquity of sequence-function relationships -- functions that map the sequence of DNA, RNA, or protein to a biochemically relevant activity. Most sequence-function relationships in biology are quantitative, but only recently have experimental techniques for effectively measuring these ...

LIPOPHILICITY AND ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITY OF SOME 2-SUBSTITUTED BENZIMIDAZOLE DERIVATIVES [PDF]
Chemical Industry and Chemical Engineering Quarterly, 2011 In the present paper, the antifungal activity of some 2-methyl and 2-amino-benzimidazole derivatives was evaluated against yeast Saccharomyces cere¬visiae. The tested compounds displayed in vitro antifungal activity and mini¬mum inhibitory concentration (

On the Relationship Between Explanation and Prediction: A Causal View [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Being able to provide explanations for a model's decision has become a central requirement for the development, deployment, and adoption of machine learning models. However, we are yet to understand what explanation methods can and cannot do. How do upstream factors such as data, model prediction, hyperparameters, and random initialization influence ...

On the Borel-Cantelli Lemmas, the Erdős-Rényi Theorem, and the Kochen-Stone Theorem [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 In this paper we present a quantitative analysis of the first and second Borel-Cantelli Lemmas and of two of their generalisations: the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi Theorem, and the Kochen-Stone Theorem. We will see that the first three results have direct quantitative formulations, giving an explicit relationship between quantitative formulations of the ...
