Provably-secure symmetric private information retrieval with quantum cryptography
Private information retrieval (PIR) is a database query protocol that provides user privacy, in that the user can learn a particular entry of the database of his interest but his query would be hidden from the data centre.

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Active classification with comparison queries
We study an extension of active learning in which the learning algorithm may ask the annotator to compare the distances of two examples from the boundary of their label-class. For example, in a recommendation system application (say for restaurants), the

Nicotinamide (NIC) and nicotinic acid (NIA) are proposed as stress signaling compounds in plants. Oxidative stress may lead to single strand breaks (SSB) in DNA, which activate poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP). NIC and NIA are then formed from NAD. NIC and NIA can promote epigenetic changes leading to the expression of defense genes specific for the ...

LeadOp+R: Structure-Based Lead Optimization With Synthetic Accessibility
We previously described a structure-based fragment hopping for lead optimization using a pre-docked fragment database, “LeadOp,” that conceptually replaced “bad” fragments of a ligand with “good” fragments while leaving the core of the ligand intact thus

Two Classical Queries versus One Quantum Query [PDF]
In this note we study the power of so called query-limited computers. We compare the strength of a classical computer that is allowed to ask two questions to an NP-oracle with the strength of a quantum computer that is allowed only one such query.

Context-Free Path Querying by Matrix Multiplication
Graph data models are widely used in many areas, for example, bioinformatics, graph databases. In these areas, it is often required to process queries for large graphs. Some of the most common graph queries are navigational queries.

A working model for cytoplasmic assembly of H/ACA snoRNPs
Dyskerin is the component of nuclear H/ACA ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) endowed with pseudouridine synthase catalytic activity. Two isoforms of human dyskerin have been characterized: the abundant Iso1, mainly nuclear, and the shorter Iso3, mainly cytoplasmic but occasionally imported into nuclei.

The Use of QBIC Content-Based Image Retrieval System [PDF]
The fast increase in digital images has caught increasing attention on the development of image retrieval technologies. Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) has become an important approach in retrieving image data from a large collection.

A Hybrid Query Scheme to Speed Up Queries in Unstructured Peer-to-Peer Networks
Unstructured peer-to-peer networks have gained a lot of popularity due to their resilience to network dynamics. The core operation in such networks is to efficiently locate resources.
