The shape of human gene family phylogenies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background: The shape of phylogenetic trees has been used to make inferences about the evolutionary process by comparing the shapes of actual phylogenies with those expected under simple models of the speciation process. Previous studies have focused

Pavement Crack Detection from Mobile Laser Scanning Point Clouds Using a Time Grid

open access: yesSensors, 2020
This paper presents a novel algorithm for detecting pavement cracks from mobile laser scanning (MLS) data. The algorithm losslessly transforms MLS data into a regular grid structure to adopt the proven image-based methods of crack extraction.

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Maximum Likelihood Estimation for the Offset-Normal Shape Distributions Using EM [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The offset-normal shape distribution is defined as the induced shape distribution of a Gaussian distributed random configuration in the plane. Such distributions were introduced by Dryden and Mardia (1991) and represent an important parameterized family ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Investigating transcription factor dynamics in health and disease using FRAP

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FRAP analysis of GFP‐tagged transcription factors reveals how molecular mobility and target engagement change in response to drug treatment. By combining live‐cell imaging, quantitative model fitting, and statistical analysis, this approach uncovers transcription factor dynamics linked to disease mechanisms, providing a powerful framework for ...

Genetic variances, heritabilities and maternal effects on body weight, breast meat yield, meat quality traits and the shape of the growth curve in turkey birds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Turkey is an important agricultural species and is largely used as a meat bird. In 2004, turkey represented 6.5% of the world poultry meat production. The world-wide turkey population has rapidly grown due to increased commercial farming.
