Particle swarm optimization
The base isolation design usually used the historical well-known earthquake records as an input ground motion. Through the adjustment on each variables of the structure system, ...
Coefficient Alpha and the Internal Structure of Tests
A general formula ( α ) of which a special case is the Kuder-Richardson coefficient of equivalence is shown to be the mean of all split-half coefficients resulting from differen...
CONFIDENCE LIMITS ON PHYLOGENIES: AN APPROACH USING THE BOOTSTRAP
The recently-developed statistical method known as the "bootstrap" can be used to place confidence intervals on phylogenies. It involves resampling points from one's own data, w...
Comparison of simple potential functions for simulating liquid water
Classical Monte Carlo simulations have been carried out for liquid water in the NPT ensemble at 25 °C and 1 atm using six of the simpler intermolecular potential functions for t...
Highly accurate protein structure prediction with AlphaFold
Abstract Proteins are essential to life, and understanding their structure can facilitate a mechanistic understanding of their function. Through an enormous experimental effort ...
The Discovery of Grounded Theory; Strategies for Qualitative Research
Most writing on sociological method has been concerned with how accurate facts can be obtained and how theory can thereby be more rigorously tested. In The Discovery of Grounded...
MEGA X: Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis across Computing Platforms
The Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis (Mega) software implements many analytical methods and tools for phylogenomics and phylomedicine. Here, we report a transformation o...
PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR): Checklist and Explanation
Scoping reviews, a type of knowledge synthesis, follow a systematic approach to map evidence on a topic and identify main concepts, theories, sources, and knowledge gaps. Althou...
Scoping studies: towards a methodological framework
This paper focuses on scoping studies, an approach to reviewing the literature which to date has received little attention in the research methods literature. We distinguish bet...
The SILVA ribosomal RNA gene database project: improved data processing and web-based tools
This FAIRsharing record describes: SILVA is a comprehensive, quality-controlled web resource for up-to-date aligned ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene sequences from the Bacteria, Archae...
