A Novel Mathematical Approach to Define the Genes/SNPs Conferring Risk or Protection in Sporadic Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Based on Auto Contractive Map Neural Networks and Graph Theory by Massimo Buscema, Silvana Penco, Enzo Grossi

“…Therefore, multiple genetic traits may show differential association with the disease. The Auto Contractive Map (AutoCM), belonging to the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) architecture, “spatializes” the correlation among variables by constructing a suitable embedding space where a visually transparent and cognitively natural notion such as “closeness” among variables reflects accurately their associations. …”

Towards developing new private sector obstetric care and contracting models in South Africa: Insights from public hospitals using private general practitioners to provide caesarean deliveries by G C Solanki, T Doherty, V Brijlal, E Daviaud, S Fawcus

“…Drawing on insights from research we carried out on the care and contracting models used by five rural district hospitals in the Western Cape Province to contract private general practitioners to provide caesarean delivery services, this article outlines a potential alternative private sector obstetric care model with the aim of stimulating discussion by all relevant stakeholders on the development of new obstetric models for improving obstetric care in the country. …”

Del nacionalismo al exilio interior: el contraste entre la experiencia modernista en Cataluña y los Andes americanos de José Antonio Figueroa Pérez by Roberto Follari

“… Sin apelaciones altisonantes al lugar común que hoy constituyen la trans e interdisciplina, el texto de Figueroa sorprende por la articulación de referencias y textualidades provenientes de diversos campos académicos: lo económico, lo histórico, lo político y lo cultural se conjugan mutuamente en el esfuerzo por dar razón de cómo el imaginario universalista se produjo en el caso de la modernidad catalana, permitiendo a los sectores subordinados un espacio de realización parcial pero efectiva; ello, en contraste con el caso de Los Andes en Colombia y Ecuador, donde tal modernidad resultó inefectiva y excluyente. …”

Analyse de la production de voyelles anglaises par des apprenants francophones, l’acquisition du contraste /ɪ/–/iː/ à la lumière des k-NN by Adrien Méli, Nicolas Ballier

“…Can methods of supervised learning help to evaluate the degree of acquisition of a contrast in a second language? This article addresses the issue of assessing the realizations of /ɪ/ and /iː/ by French learners of English in spontaneous conversations by considering it as a classification problem, which the resort to the k-nearest neighbours algorithm (k-NN) can solve. …”

A Study on Common Fixed Point of Joint A;B Generalized Cyclic ϕ−abc Weak Nonexpansive Mappings and Generalized Cyclic abc;r Contractions in Quasi Metric Spaces by Sahar Mohamed Ali Abou Bakr

“…The result in particular demonstrated a single fixed point of generalized cyclic ϕ−abc weak nonexpansive mappings, without the assumption of a single contracting point. Additionally, it introduces new types of generalized cyclic abc;r contraction mappings and describes the existence of a single fixed point of them in b-metric spaces. …”

Chromosome‐Level Genome Assembly and Whole‐Genome Resequencing Revealed Contrasting Population Genetic Differentiation of Black Bream (Megalobrama skolkovii) (Teleostei: Cyprinidae) Allopatric and Sympatric to Its Kin Species by Ruijin Ding, Dan Yu, Ke Yang, Xinghua Wu, Huanzhang Liu

“…By resequencing individuals from the northern and Poyang Lake populations, we found that the northern population showed lower genetic diversity, larger genetic differentiation, and two sharp historical declines in population size through demographic analysis, indicating the possible bottlenecks after the allopatric isolation. In contrast, the Poyang Lake population, with its higher genetic diversity, higher Tajima's D value, and lower levels of linkage disequilibrium, reflects the ancestral state of black bream. …”
