Recent years have seen the rapid growth and development of the field of smart photonics,
where machine-learning algorithms are being matched to optical systems to add new …

Motivation: PacBio single molecule real-time sequencing is a third-generation sequencing
technique producing long reads, with comparatively lower throughput and higher error rate. …

Previous studies have reported that chromosome synteny in Lepidoptera has been well
conserved, yet the number of haploid chromosomes varies widely from 5 to 223. Here we report …

… In the worst case, the k-mer neighbourhood of each read contains L reads where L is the
limit on the size of the k-mer neighbourhoods. We use each read as a base read, and thus …

The propagation of ultrashort pulses in optical fibre plays a central role in the development of
light sources and photonic technologies, with applications from fundamental studies of light…

This study was designed to compare the tracheal intubating conditions during a rapid
sequence induction of anaesthesia using rocuronium 0.6 (n = 61) or 1.0 mg.kg −1 (n = 130) or …

… Therefore, C ℓ = i is distributed according to the binomial distribution Bin ( r i , ( i − k + 1 ) /
G ) (independence of locations of exact regions is assumed), and the expected coverage of a …

… and let us denote these lengths by l 1 , l 2 ,…, l r . Let the number of reads of length l i be k i
. … We will use W m,i to denote the contribution of reads of length l i to the weight of a node at …

A central research area in nonlinear science is the study of instabilities that drive extreme
events. Unfortunately, techniques for measuring such phenomena often provide only partial …

… Let L be an estimate of the upper bound of possible scaffold length (eg an estimated upper
… A good choice for C is 2L as x i ≤L and x j ≤L. Similarly, we get the relaxed constraints for …
