Convergence for the regularized inversion of Fourier series

The problems of smoothing data through a transform in the Fourier domain and of retrieving a function from its Fourier coefficients are analyzed in the present paper. For both of them a solution, based on regularization tools, is known. Aim of the paper is to prove strong results of convergence of…

Multi-omics data integration provides insights into the post-harvest biology of a long shelf-life tomato landrace

In this study we investigated the transcriptome and epigenome dynamics of the tomato fruit during post-harvest in a landrace belonging to a group of tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L.) collectively known as "Piennolo del Vesuvio", all characterized by a long shelflife. Expression of protein-coding…

Identify regulatory sites using neighbourhood species,

The annotation of transcription binding sites in new sequenced genomes is an important and challenging problem. We have previously shown how a regression model that linearly relates gene expression levels to the matching scores of nucleotide patterns allows us to identify DNA-binding sites from a…

Hierarchical non-negative matrix factorization applied to three-dimensional 3T MRSI data for automatic tissue characterization of the prostate

In this study non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) was hierarchically applied to simulated and in vivo three-dimensional 3 T MRSI data of the prostate to extract patterns for tumour and benign tissue and to visualize their spatial distribution. Our studies show that the hierarchical scheme…

Beppo Levi's Mathematics Papers Return to Italy

L'articolo delinea un breve ritratto di Beppo Levi e narra di alcune vicende che lo videro protagonista prima, durante e dopo le leggi razziali fasciste quando venne costretto ad emigrare in Argentina. L'occasione è la donazione all'Archivio dell'Istituto per le Applicazioni del Calcolo "Mauro…

On the Modification of the Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropy Spectrum from Canonical Quantum Gravity

We evaluate the modifications to the cosmic microwave background anisotropy spectrum that result from a semiclassical expansion of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation. Recently, such an investigation in the case of a real scalar field coupled to gravity has led to the prediction that the power at large…

Relations, models and a memetic approach for three degree-dependent spanning tree problems

In this paper we take into account three different spanning tree problems with degree-dependent objective functions. The main application of these problems is in the field of optical network design. In particular, we propose the classical Minimum Leaves Spanning Tree problem as a relevant problem…

Intermittency and Universality in Fully Developed Inviscid and Weakly Compressible Turbulent Flows

Invisible control of self-organizing agents leaving unknown environments

In this paper we are concerned with multiscale modeling, control, and simulation of self-organizing agents leaving an unknown area under limited visibility, with special emphasis on crowds. We first introduce a new microscopic model characterized by an exploration phase and an evacuation phase. The…

An optimized D2Q37 Lattice Boltzmann code on GP-GPUs

We describe the implementation of a thermal compressible Lattice Boltzmann algorithm on an NVIDIA Tesla C2050 system based on the Fermi GP-GPU. We consider two different versions, including and not including reactive effects. We describe the overall organization of the algorithm and give details on…
