How do prior beliefs affect the interpretation of scientific results? I discuss a hypothetical scenario where researchers Collections publish results that could either support a theory they believe in, or refute that theory, and ask if the two instances carry the same weight.More colloquially, I ask if we should overweigh scientific results support
Species identification via DNA barcodes is contributing greatly to current bioinventory efforts.The initial, and widely accepted, proposal was to use the protein-coding cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) region as the standard barcode for animals, Portable Ranges but recently non-coding internal transcribed spacer (ITS) genes have been proposed a
Abstract Deciphering the functional organization of large biological networks is a major challenge for current mathematical methods.A common approach is to decompose networks into largely independent functional modules, but inferring these modules and their organization from network activity is difficult, given the uncertainties and incompleteness
A novel motion-adaptive deinterlacing algorithm with edge-pattern recognition and hybrid motion detection is introduced.The great variety of video contents makes the processing of assorted motion, edges, textures, and the combination of them very difficult with a single algorithm.The edge-pattern recognition algorithm introduced in this paper exhib
