Researchers in the Graduate School of Advanced Science and Engineering at Waseda University, Japan, say they have introduced RaptGen, a variational autoencoder (VAE) that can be used for aptamer ...

Oligonucleotides are short, single strands of synthetic DNA or RNA. Albeit small, these molecules play an important role in molecular and synthetic biology applications. One type of ...

BioTeam, the famous HPC consulting practice, is using the quad-socket large memory nodes at the Texas Advanced Computing Center to speed alignment and HMM (Hidden Markov Model) inference workflows to ...

Drought is a naturally occurring climate phenomenon that significantly affects human and environmental activity, and can be considered one of the most widespread and destructive natural disasters.

We propose a statistical model to assess whether individuals strategically use mixed strategies in repeated games. We formulate a hidden Markov model in which the latent state space contains both pure ...

Aptamers are single-stranded oligonucleotides generated by the systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX). They have a wide variety of applications, but computational approaches ...
