Social Capital in the Creation of Human Capital

There are two broad intellectual streams in the description and explanation of social action. One, characteristic of the work of most sociologists, sees the actor as socialized ...

Initial sequencing and analysis of the human genome

The human genome holds an extraordinary trove of information about human development, physiology, medicine and evolution. Here we report the results of an international collabor...

A Theory of Cognitive Dissonance

Leon Festinger's theory of cognitive dissonance has been widely recognized for its important and influential concepts in areas of motivation and social psychology. The theory of...

HTSeq—a Python framework to work with high-throughput sequencing data

Abstract Motivation: A large choice of tools exists for many standard tasks in the analysis of high-throughput sequencing (HTS) data. However, once a project deviates from stand...

Atoms, molecules, solids, and surfaces: Applications of the generalized gradient approximation for exchange and correlation

Generalized gradient approximations (GGA’s) seek to improve upon the accuracy of the local-spin-density (LSD) approximation in electronic-structure calculations. Perdew and Wang...

The REDCap consortium: Building an international community of software platform partners

The Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) data management platform was developed in 2004 to address an institutional need at Vanderbilt University, then shared with a limite...

MODELTEST: testing the model of DNA substitution.

Abstract SUMMARY: The program MODELTEST uses log likelihood scores to establish the model of DNA evolution that best fits the data. AVAILABILITY: The MODELTEST package, includin...

Very high resolution interpolated climate surfaces for global land areas

We developed interpolated climate surfaces for global land areas (excluding Antarctica) at a spatial resolution of 30 arc s (often referred to as 1-km spatial resolution). The c...

MEGA11: Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis Version 11

Abstract The Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis (MEGA) software has matured to contain a large collection of methods and tools of computational molecular evolution. Here, ...

Polymorphic transitions in single crystals: A new molecular dynamics method

A new Lagrangian formulation is introduced. It can be used to make molecular dynamics (MD) calculations on systems under the most general, externally applied, conditions of stre...

Delving Deep into Rectifiers: Surpassing Human-Level Performance on ImageNet Classification

Rectified activation units (rectifiers) are essential for state-of-the-art neural networks. In this work, we study rectifier neural networks for image classification from two as...
