Regulation of mRNA abundance by polypyrimidine tract-binding protein-controlled alternate 5′ splice site choice by Hamid, Fursham M., Makeyev, Eugene V.

“…We show that Ptbp1 promotes preferential utilization of the u5′ss giving rise to stable mRNAs encoding a full-length Hps1 protein, whereas bias towards d5′ss triggered by Ptbp1 down-regulation generates transcripts susceptible to nonsense-mediated decay (NMD). …”

A reformulation of additive models by Wozniakowski, Alex

“…In contradistinction, we introduce and develop the stacked methodology, wherein we regard prior predictions from a base regression model as a knowledge transfer mechanism, i.e., an inductive bias. Moreover, we endow additive models and their fitting algorithms with the ability to leverage this inductive bias and, thereby, additively and adaptively improve upon the base regression model in a way that generalizes the data analysis methods of twicing, thricing, and reroughing. …”

Generation of good cryptographic substitution-boxes by Ong, Wee Hern

“…Thereafter, the candidate Sboxes are compared using cryptographic criteria such as absence of fixed points, differential uniformity, maximal linear bias and minimum algebraic degree. The results revealed that although Feistel construction methods may not be able to improve the cryptographic bounds of the 8-by-8 bit Sbox, compared to AES Sbox, but slight modifications made to existing 8-by-8 bit Sboxes (except AES) allow an improvement in the construction of 8-by-8 bit Sboxes, inching closer to the AES Sbox cryptographic standards. …”
