Exploiting the Abstract Calculus Pattern for the Integration of Ordinary Differential Equations for Dynamics Systems: An Object-Oriented Programming Approach in Modern Fortran

This manuscript relates to the exploiting of the abstract calculus pattern (ACP) for the (numerical) solution of ordinary differential equation (ODEs) systems, which are ubiquitous mathematical formulations of many physical (dynamical) phenomena. We present FOODIE, a software suite aimed to numerically solve ODE problems by means of a clear, concise, and efficient abstract interface.

The aberrant epigenome of DNMT3B-mutated ICF1 patient iPSCs is amenable to correction, with the exception of a subset of regions with H3K4me3- and/or CTCF-based epigenetic memory

Bi-allelic hypomorphic mutations in DNMT3B disrupt DNA methyltransferase activity and lead to immunodeficiency, centromeric instability, facial anomalies syndrome, type 1 (ICF1). Although several ICF1 phenotypes have been linked to abnormally hypomethylated repetitive regions, the unique genomic regions responsible for the remaining disease phenotypes remain largely uncharacterized.

Some Results on Colored Network Contraction

Networks are pervasive in computer science and in real world applications. It is often useful to leverage distinctive node features to regroup such data in clusters, by making use of a single representative node per cluster. Such contracted graphs can help identify features of the original networks that were not visible before. As an example, we can identify contiguous nodes having the same discrete property in a social network. Contracting a graph allows a more scalable analysis of the interactions and structure of the network nodes.

An overview of some mathematical techniques and problems linking 3D vision to 3D printing

Computer Vision and 3D printing have rapidly evolved in the last 10 years but interactions among them have been very limited so far, despite the fact that they share several mathematical techniques. We try to fill the gap presenting an overview of some techniques for Shape-from-Shading problems as well as for 3D printing with an emphasis on the approaches based on nonlinear partial differential equations and optimization. We also sketch possible couplings to complete the process of object manufacturing starting from one or more images of the object and ending with its final 3D print.

Modelling sea ice and melt ponds evolution

We present a mathematical model describing the evolution of sea ice and meltwater during summer. The system is described by two coupled partial differential equations for the ice thickness h(x,t) and pond depth w(x,t) fields. The model is similar, in principle, to the one put forward by Luthije et al. (2006), but it features i) a modified melting term, ii) a non-uniform seepage rate of meltwater through the porous ice medium and a minimal coupling with the atmosphere via a surface wind shear term, ?s (Scagliarini et al. 2020).

EEGManyPipelines: A Large-scale, Grassroots Multi-analyst Study of Electroencephalography Analysis Practices in the Wild

The ongoing reproducibility crisis in psychology and cognitive neuroscience has sparked increasing calls to re-evaluate and reshape scientific culture and practices. Heeding those calls, we have recently launched the EEGManyPipelines project as a means to assess the robustness of EEG research in naturalistic conditions and experiment with an alternative model of conducting scientific research.
