A pneumonia outbreak associated with a new coronavirus of probable bat origin

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...

Compressed sensing

Suppose x is an unknown vector in Ropf <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">m</sup> (a digital image or signal); we pla...

Epidemiological and clinical characteristics of 99 cases of 2019 novel coronavirus pneumonia in Wuhan, China: a descriptive study

Soft self-consistent pseudopotentials in a generalized eigenvalue formalism

A new approach to the construction of first-principles pseudopotentials is described. The method allows transferability to be improved systematically while holding the cutoff ra...

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...

Reproducible, interactive, scalable and extensible microbiome data science using QIIME 2

Search and clustering orders of magnitude faster than BLAST

Abstract Motivation: Biological sequence data is accumulating rapidly, motivating the development of improved high-throughput methods for sequence classification. Results: UBLAS...

Numerical integration of the cartesian equations of motion of a system with constraints: molecular dynamics of n-alkanes

Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity with Estimates of the Variance of United Kingdom Inflation

Traditional econometric models assume a constant one-period forecast variance. To generalize this implausible assumption, a new class of stochastic processes called autoregressi...

GRADE: an emerging consensus on rating quality of evidence and strength of recommendations

Guidelines are inconsistent in how they rate the quality of evidence and the strength of recommendations. This article explores the advantages of the GRADE system, which is incr...
