Biochips for Regenerative Medicine: Real-time Stem Cell Continuous Monitoring as Inferred by High-Throughput Gene Analysis

Regenerative medicine is a novel clinical branch aiming at the cure of diseases by replacement of damaged tissues. The crucial use of stem cells makes this area rich of challenges, given the poorly understood mechanisms of differentiation. One highly needed and yet unavailable technology should…

Coupled SPH-FV method with net vorticity and mass transfer

Recently, an algorithm for coupling a Finite Volume (FV) method, that discretize the Navier-Stokes equations on block structured Eulerian grids, with the weakly-compressible Lagrangian Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) was presented in [16]. The algorithm takes advantage of the SPH method to…

Spline appoximation of advection-diffusion problems using upwind type collocation nodes

Localized empirical discriminant analysis

Some empirical localized discriminant analysis methods for classifying images are introduced. They use spatial correlation of images in order to improve classification reducing the `pseudo-nuisance' present in pixel-wise discriminant analysis. The result is obtained through an empirical (data…

On computing modified moments for half-range Hermite weights

In this paper we consider the computation of the modified moments for the system of Laguerre polynomials on the real semiaxis with the Hermite weight. These moments can be used for the computation of integrals with the Hermite weight on the real semiaxis via product rules. We propose a new…

Berni Alder and the pioneering times of molecular simulation

The paper traces the early stages of Berni Alder's scientific accomplishments, focusing on his contributions to the development of Computational Methods for the study of Statistical Mechanics. Following attempts in the early 50s to implement Monte Carlo methods to study equilibrium properties of…

Linearization pseudo-noise and its effect on the retrieval of atmospheric state from infrared spectral radiances

Remote sounding of earth's atmosphere from upwelling infrared radiances is highly non-linear. A linearization step is typically involved in seeking for suitable solutions. This letter discusses possible problems which arise when combining the linearization step with schemes aimed at solving the…

Fluctuations and precise deviations of cumulative INAR time series

In this paper, we study fluctuations and precise deviations of cumulative INAR time series, both in a non-stationary and in a stationary regime. The theoretical results are based on the recent mod- convergence theory as presented in Féray et al., 2016. We apply our findings to the construction of…

Mechanistic modelling of drug release from multi-layer capsules

We propose a novel in silico model for computing drug release from multi-layer capsules. The diffusion problem in such heterogeneous layer-by-layer composite medium is described by a system of coupled partial differential equations, which we solve analytically using separation of variables. In…
