Development and testing of a general amber force field
Abstract We describe here a general Amber force field (GAFF) for organic molecules. GAFF is designed to be compatible with existing Amber force fields for proteins and nucleic a...
STRING v11: protein–protein association networks with increased coverage, supporting functional discovery in genome-wide experimental datasets
Proteins and their functional interactions form the backbone of the cellular machinery. Their connectivity network needs to be considered for the full understanding of biologica...
A method for registration of 3-D shapes
The authors describe a general-purpose, representation-independent method for the accurate and computationally efficient registration of 3-D shapes including free-form curves an...
CAPITAL ASSET PRICES: A THEORY OF MARKET EQUILIBRIUM UNDER CONDITIONS OF RISK*
One of the problems which has plagued those attempting to predict the behavior of capital markets is the absence of a body of positive microeconomic theory dealing with conditio...
Bootstrap Methods: Another Look at the Jackknife
We discuss the following problem: given a random sample $\\mathbf{X} = (X_1, X_2, \\cdots, X_n)$ from an unknown probability distribution $F$, estimate the sampling distribution...
On Persistence in Mutual Fund Performance
ABSTRACT Using a sample free of survivor bias, I demonstrate that common factors in stock returns and investment expenses almost completely explain persistence in equity mutual ...
Probability, Random Variables, and Stochastic Processes.
Part 1 Probability and Random Variables 1 The Meaning of Probability 2 The Axioms of Probability 3 Repeated Trials 4 The Concept of a Random Variable 5 Functions of One Random V...
The variant call format and VCFtools
Abstract Summary: The variant call format (VCF) is a generic format for storing DNA polymorphism data such as SNPs, insertions, deletions and structural variants, together with ...
Robust uncertainty principles: exact signal reconstruction from highly incomplete frequency information
This paper considers the model problem of reconstructing an object from incomplete frequency samples. Consider a discrete-time signal f ∈ C N and a randomly chosen set of freque...
Prediction of Creatinine Clearance from Serum Creatinine
A formula has been developed to predict creatinine clearance (Ccr) from serum creatinine (Scr) in adult males: (see article)(15% less in females). Derivation included the relati...
