description: Computational protein design (CPD) is a powerful technique to design novel proteins. Many CPD objectives such as design on backbone ensembles, multi-specificity design and the integration of negative design demand the simultaneous optimization of multiple design states. Rosetta [1] is a popular software suite to study and design proteins. Rosetta’s protocols consist of specific procedures and a fine-tuned set of parameters to carry out a given task. An example is the use of specific sequence design cycles and catalytic constraints in the enzyme design protocol.

At present, the multistate design implementation of Rosetta [2] is a generic approach lacking options to fine tune the calculations in the same manner as specialized single state protocols. We have developed a framework for CPD that integrates multistate design in existing Rosetta protocols while preserving the protocol’s original functionality. Our framework consists of two, easily exchangeable components: i) The optimizer searches the sequence space and ii) the evaluator scores the sequences according to the given design task. Currently, we utilize Rosetta’s genetic algorithm as an optimizer; protocols for enzyme design [3] and protein-protein interface design [4] serve as evaluators. However, due to the modularity of both components, multistate functionality can be transferred to arbitrary Rosetta applications with little effort. We have benchmarked the enzyme design application on a dataset consisting of conformational ensembles and achieve an 18 percent performance improvement over singlestate methods. As a proof of concept, we have applied our framework to computationally design retro-aldolases which are currently subject to biochemical characterization.

description: We describe a new program called PQ, which reconstructs phylogeny of proteins at the base of a multiple sequence alignment. For scoring a phylogenetic tree, PQ uses an original character-based algorithm. It reconstructs tree topology only, i.e. returns an unrooted tree without branch lengths.

The program was tested on thousands of alignments of orthologous protein domains. We compared the ability of PQ and a number of other programs to reconstruct phylogenetic trees that are close to known trees of corresponding organisms.

For all tested phylogenetic groups and for alignments of 15, 30 and 45 sequences, PQ  is more accurate than the maximum likelihood program RAxML  and the maximum parsimony program TNT. On alignments of 15 sequences it outperforms the distance-oriented program FastME, too. However on 45-sequence alignments of fungal proteins FastME is more accurate than PQ.

The new program can be a good alternative to known programs, especially for analyzing small sets of protein sequences. Its source is available to download at http://mouse.belozersky.msu.ru/software/pq , a web-interface is at http://mouse.belozersky.msu.ru/tools/pq .
title: Land Use Efficiency in Fairfax City, Virginia Through Per Acre Property Tax Analysis
Creators: name: Wolfenstein, Ben K
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2022

description: This thesis explores the efficiency of sprawl land use patterns in Fairfax City, VA. Over the last 100 years, local, state, and federal land use policies have created an auto-oriented environment known as sprawl. Literature suggests that sprawl is more expensive to build and maintain than more compact development patterns, so localities must ensure that their development patterns produce enough property tax revenue to cover costs. Calculating property tax per acre allows localities to determine how productive each acre of land is, and which types of land uses are the most productive for each acre of land that they use. In Fairfax City, detached single-family homes and properties that used a considerable amount of land for surface parking lots were significantly less productive per acre with respect to tax revenue than more compact land uses such as attached single-family housing and the City’s Old Town. Fairfax City should reexamine its land use policies and zoning ordinance which currently emphasizes sprawl over traditional development.
Icarus: visualizer for de novo assembly evaluation

description: Icarus is a novel interactive visualizer for assessment and analysis of genomic draft assemblies. The tool is freely available online, and as a standalone application integrated into the tool QUAST (Gurevich et al., 2013).

Icarus consists of two types of data viewers. Contig Alignment Viewer displays contigs according to their mapping to the reference genome, and highlights all assembly errors: indels, relocations, inversions, cross-chromosome translocations, etc. Icarus is well-designed for comparison: if several assemblies of the same data are provided, the similarities both in correct contigs and assembly errors will be highlighted.

If the reads are also specified, Icarus visualizes the coverage distribution along the genome with an extra "physical coverage" overlay (defined as the coverage by paired-end reads including the gap between ends). This track helps to identify if the gaps could have been scaffolded by the assemblers, or if the physical read coverage was insufficient, or the reference is inexact/misassembled.

Contig Size Viewer provides another contig data representation: contigs arranged by size. This ordering is suitable for comparing assemblies when no reference is available, and to visualize such metrics as size of the largest contig, contig size distribution, and N50-like statistics. When the reference is available, assembly errors are highlighted, and both viewers are tightly linked so the user can jump between the representations.

Icarus can also expose genes, operons, or any other genomic features provided by user, as well as the genes predicted in QUAST by tools like GeneMark and Glimmer, which is useful for assessment without the reference.

Icarus is also designed for metagenomic assemblies: it is integrated into MetaQUAST (Mikheenko et al., 2015), and provides alignment visualizations with respect to each input reference sequence.

description: As more and more people begin living in urban areas the role the built environment plays in creating a livable urban space is increasingly important. This research examines Jane Jacobs’ four generators of urban diversity, as presented in The Death and Life of Great American Cities and attempts to quantify them in a meaningful way. This paper presents a methodology for assessing each of the four generators – dwelling density, block length, mix of building age, and mix of uses – as well as a new composite Urban Livability index that combines all four generators. The methods presented here are intended to create a framework that may be applied to any U.S. city in order to assess the built environment and provide useful information to city planners and policy-makers. The District of Columbia is used as a case study for the application and testing of this methodology.

description: High-throughput data involves enrichment analysis in order to identify overrepresented processes and pathways. The major limitation of this approach is that the biological information contained in the molecular interaction network underlying the list of proteins of interest is not taken into account. Since proteins do not act in isolation, their biological functions are influenced by their interacting proteins. For this reason, we developed MAGNETO a web server that extracts the maximum-likelihood tissue subnetwork (MLTSN). The MLTSN is highly representative of the interaction partners of the proteins in the starting list and of the annotations that appear in the selected tissue. The nodes of the MLTSN represent the testing set for the enrichment analysis against databases such as Gene Ontology, Kegg, Reactome DrugBank. Our approach permits to detect those biological properties that do not emerge with the standard enrichment analysis and permits to identify the potential target proteins for different drugs.

description: The goal of the study was to identify genetic contribution to the variance of the innate and response. The innate immunity was represented by the level of natural antibodies (NAbs) binding to: lipopolysacharides (LPS) that are found in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria and lipoteichoic acid (LTA) that is an ingredient of cell walls of Gram-positive bacteria. The aquired immunity was represented by the level of specific antibodies (SAbs) binding to KLH (keyhole limpet hemocyanin), the agent that is normally not represented in the avian environment. Identification of relevant variables (SNPs) for NAb-KLH, NAb-LPS, NAb-LTA natural antibodies and SAb-KLH specific antibodies was performed using: Random Forest  and Boruta algorithm. The entire procedure of variable selection was performed within double 3-fold cross validation loop. The SNPs identified in the study correspond to the several previously identified genetic markers for immune response. The best predictive RF models based on the relevant variables explain mean 14.94\% of variance for SAb-KLH data, 7.84\% for LTA and 4.38\% for LPS data. The procedure applied to a control run where antibody samples were collected before immunisation leads to a model with no predictive power, it concerns of results for NAb-KLH antibodies.

description: Africa has recently seen movement toward democratization. Whether out of the growing conviction that it is preferable, or the sense that political change is inevitable, several one-party or dictatorial regimes now permit a free press, opposition parties, and more or less "free" elections. Indeed, contested elections are becoming an increasingly common feature of political life in Africa. Of course, there are countries where progress toward democracy seemed to have begun but was halted when the ruling elites saw that this would lead to their removal. But these regimes are no longer so self-confident; they are very much on the defensive and appear to be weakening. The demise of authoritarian regimes does not necessarily mean that democracy will flourish in Africa; authoritarian regimes have not been the only obstacle to democracy. The "legacy of empire" - that all the borders between African states were drawn by outside powers without reference to preexisting national, ethnic, or other boundaries - may become the most serious obstacle to the establishment and maintenance of democracy in Africa. Democratization often brings forward demands for secession or a realignment of existing patterns of ethnic relations. As a result, democratization efforts may not proceed smoothly and peacefully, and may involve internal conflict and demands for the alteration of the colonial - era borders recognized and maintained by the member countries of the Organization of African Unity (OAU).

description: In this work we studied avoidance of GATC in species encoding alternative Restriction-Modification systems. We found that GATC avoidance can result from a DNA exchange between strains with different methylation status of GATC site within the process of natural transformation. If this hypothesis is correct, the GATC avoidance is a sign of a DNA exchange between bacteria with different methylation status in mixed population.
Prediction of polyproline type II helix receptors

Year: 2016

description: Polyproline type II helices (PPII) are a less common secondary structure of proteins than α helix and β sheet. There is no internal backbone hydrogen bond interaction in this conformation. As a result, the carbonyl and amide groups along the PPII helices prefer to make intermolecular interaction. And hence, PPII mediates many protein-peptide or protein-protein interactions in signalling pathway, immune response, cell-cell communication. There are an abundance number of proteins which are well-known to bind PPII, including MHC, SH3, WW, EVH1, profilin and GYF domains. These PPII binding proteins share geometrical and biophysical features. Using the knowledge from the known PPII-bound families the aim of this study is to detect the PPII binding site in a query protein. This approach could help identify PPII binding protein.
Eumelanin-Enhanced Photothermal Disinfection of Contact Lenses Using a Sustainable Marine Nanoplatform Engineered with Electrospun Nanofibers

Year: 2024

description: Bacterial keratitis (BK) is a severe eye infection commonly associated with Staphylococcus aureus, posing a significant risk to vision, especially among contact lens wearers. This research introduces a novel smart nanoplatform (deMS@cNF), developed from demineralized mussel shells and reinforced with chitin nanofibrils, specifically designed for portable photothermal disinfection of contact lenses. The nanoplatform leverages the photothermal properties of eumelanin in mussel shells, which, when activated by a simple bike flashlight, rapidly heats to temperatures up to 95°C, effectively destroying bacterial contamination. In vitro tests demonstrate that the nanoplatform is biocompatible and non-toxic, making it suitable for medical applications. This study highlights an innovative approach to converting marine biowaste into a safe, effective, and low-cost portable method for disinfecting contact lenses, showcasing the potential of the deMS@cNF platform for broader antimicrobial applications.

description: Adaptive beamformers rely on accurate estimation of the auto-covariance matrix for proper mitigation of interference and preservation of signals. Most practical beamform- ers use time averaging for covariance estimation, but it is difficult to acquire enough time snapshots in dynamic environments. Frequency averaging enables adaptation in rapidly changing scenarios, but the technique assumes homogeneity throughout the fixed averaging bandwidth. Cluttered environments with narrowband sources can break this assumption of consistency across frequency. This leads to many artifacts and causes the adaptive beam- former to under perform compared to a conventional filter. Separation of signal and noise frequency bins for covariance estimation mitigates the artifacts caused by fixed frequency averaging bands. Automatically segmenting data into signals and noise requires the use of an unsupervised clustering algorithm and creates a data-adaptive frequency averaging covariance estimator. This thesis proposes a data-adaptive covariance estimation approach for beamspace MVDR beamformers in one time snapshot environments. Using fixed frequency averaging bands increases the noise floor and consequently com- promises the detection of low SNR signals. The mismatch between the covariance estimate and the applied data causes the beam pattern of the adaptive beamformer to become ill- behaved. Clustering the data to provide separate covariance estimates for signal and noise clusters mitigates these artifacts and preserves the detection of low SNR signals. This thesis also shows that the SNR of a signal is correlated to the increase in noise floor for fixed frequency averaging beamformers. The higher the SNR of a narrowband signal be- comes, the higher the noise floor on all other frequency bins. The proposed data-adaptive covariance estimate beamformer mitigates these artifacts and preserves the noise floor. The main drawback to the proposed approach is the large computational burden. Applying an unsupervised clustering approach and creating additional weight solutions needed for every cluster is expensive. If the resources are available, the proposed approach shows that fre- quency averaging beamformers can operate in single time snapshot environments and retain the benefits of an adaptive beamformer without any artifacts in the beamformer output.

description: Average hold time is a concern for call centers because it affects customer satisfaction. Contact centers should instruct their agents to use special on-hold scripts to maintain positive interactions with clients. This study presents a natural language processing model that detects on-hold phrases in customer service calls transcribed by automatic speech recognition technology. The task of finding hold scripts in dialogue was formulated as a multiclass text classification problem with three mutually exclusive classes: scripts for putting a client on hold, scripts for returning to a client, and phrases irrelevant to on-hold scripts. We collected an in-house dataset of calls and labeled each dialogue turn in each call. We fine-tuned RuBERT on the dataset by exploring various hyperparameter sets and achieved high model performance. The developed model can help agent monitoring by providing a way to check whether an agent follows predefined on-hold scripts.

description: This study was completed in order to gain a better understanding of the way undergraduate male students experience service-learning and how that experience does, or does not, contribute to the development of socially responsible leadership behaviors. The narratives of the individual student experiences and theoretical grounding with Astin’s Inputs, Environments, and Outcomes Model and the Social Change Model as theoretical frameworks, led to promising findings on the relationship between undergraduate male engagement in service and student identity development, understanding of difference, leadership development, and long-term social responsibility. Over the course of the interviews, students shared the experiences they had through service-learning, as well as the barriers they had to overcome to participate in servicelearning courses, which informed the creation of a new model that illustrates the way undergraduate students interact with service-learning.

description: The work described in this thesis concerns the design and synthesis of a tripodal pyrrole-imine ligand and its coordination to f-elements. The reduction chemistry and potential applications in small molecule activation chemistry of these complexes is evaluated. Chapter one discusses important advances in organo-lanthanide and -actinide chemistry, emphasising the applications of polypyrrolic Schiff-base ligands in the reduction chemistry of the uranyl dication, the reduction of the redox-inert rare-earth elements, and redox activity of ligands in f-element complexes. A discussion of low oxidation state actinide coordination chemistry is presented. Chapter two presents the synthesis and characterisation of the tripodal pyrrole-imine ligand, in addition to a number of attempted syntheses for tripodal secondary- and tertiaryamide ligands. The synthesis and characterisation of the uranyl(VI) complex formed with this ligand is discussed along with its reduction to a hetero-bimetallic uranyl(V) dimer. Transmetalation of this complex is explored with transition metal and lanthanide halides to form a variety of heterometallic uranyl(V) complexes. The further reduction of an yttrium-uranyl complex to a uranium(IV) multimetallic complex is reported. Chapter three reports the synthesis and characterisation of mono- and binuclear rareearth metal complexes of this tripodal ligand. The reduction chemistry of these complexes is explored with subsequent metal-based and ligand-based reductions evident. In the case of the ytterbium bimetallic complex, the properties of a mixed-valence singly reduced complex is investigated by X-ray crystallography, electronic absorption spectroscopy, magnetic susceptibility measurements and computational modelling. Chapter four describes the synthesis of a range of low oxidation state uranium and thorium complexes. The coordination chemistry and potential applications in small molecule activation is discussed. The solid-state structures of these compounds are reported and reduction of these complexes is attempted. Chapter five provides a summary of the work presented along with a future outlook. Chapter six contains detailed experimental methods used in this research and any analytical data for the compounds synthesised in this thesis.

description: Europe’s historical citizenship regimes limited economic citizenship to specific groups. As in modern national citizenship regimes, those outsiders who sought to access economic rights needed to meet various criteria. In this paper, we evaluate how often individuals who had begun the process of qualification for economic citizenship failed to complete it. Our focus is on qualification by apprenticeship. This process generated human capital alongside rights. However, as we show for a range of cities, large numbers of youths entering apprenticeship contracts failed to complete them. We consider the nature, frequency and, to the extent that it is possible, the causation of these failures. Our results point to the value of failure as a way to maintain flexibility within labour markets Local, urban citizenship regimes preferred pragmatic responses to labour market tensions to rent seeking.

description: Good evaluation can only happen if we think about learning and evidence at the start of a program. This document, details seven steps that are the minimum set of steps every peacebuilding program must adhere to in order to contribute to robust evidence and learning in the peacebuilding field. Each step is explained and the critical elements and their importance are outlined. These steps include conducting a conflict assessment; peacebuilding program design; a monitoring and evaluation plan; a baseline study; monitoring and adaptive management; an endline study and final evaluation; and dissemination and key lessons learned. There is also an initial list of key resources for each step. For more information see: http://www.alianceforpeacebuilding.org/afp-publications

description: Monolayer FeSe/TiO$_x$ and FeSe/FeO$_x$ interfaces exhibit significant superconductivity enhancement compared to bulk FeSe, with interfacial electron-phonon coupling (EPC) playing a crucial role. However, the reduced dimensionality in monolayer FeSe, which may drive superconducting fluctuations, complicates the understanding of the enhancement mechanisms. Here we construct a new superconducting interface: monolayer FeSe/SrVO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$, in which the itinerant electrons of highly metallic SrVO$_3$ films can screen all the high-energy Fuchs-Kliewer phonons, including those of SrTiO$_3$, making it the first FeSe/oxide system with screened interfacial EPC while maintaining the monolayer FeSe thickness. Despite comparable doping levels, the heavily electron-doped monolayer FeSe/SrVO$_3$ exhibits a lower pairing temperature ($T_\mathrm{g}$ $\sim$ 48 K) than FeSe/SrTiO$_3$ and FeSe/LaFeO$_3$. Our findings disentangle the contributions of interfacial EPC from dimensionality on enhancing $T_\mathrm{g}$ in FeSe/oxide interfaces, underscoring the importance of interfacial EPC in $T_\mathrm{g}$ enhancement. This FeSe/VO$_x$ interface also provides a platform for studying the interfacial superconductivity.

description: Our collective attention span is shortened by the flood of online information. With \textit{FarFetched}, we address the need for automated claim validation based on the aggregated evidence derived from multiple online news sources. We introduce an entity-centric reasoning framework in which latent connections between events, actions, or statements are revealed via entity mentions and represented in a graph database. Using entity linking and semantic similarity, we offer a way for collecting and combining information from diverse sources in order to generate evidence relevant to the user's claim. Then, we leverage textual entailment recognition to quantitatively determine whether this assertion is credible, based on the created evidence. Our approach tries to fill the gap in automated claim validation for less-resourced languages and is showcased on the Greek language, complemented by the training of relevant semantic textual similarity (STS) and natural language inference (NLI) models that are evaluated on translated versions of common benchmarks.

description: Mapping and navigation have gone hand-in-hand since long before robots existed. Maps are a key form of communication, allowing someone who has never been somewhere to nonetheless navigate that area successfully. In the context of multi-robot systems, the maps and information that flow between robots are necessary for effective collaboration, whether those robots are operating concurrently, sequentially, or completely asynchronously. In this paper, we argue that maps must go beyond encoding purely geometric or visual information to enable increasingly complex autonomy, particularly between robots. We propose a framework for multi-robot autonomy, focusing in particular on air and ground robots operating in outdoor 2.5D environments. We show that semantic maps can enable the specification, planning, and execution of complex collaborative missions, including localization in GPS-denied settings. A distinguishing characteristic of this work is that we strongly emphasize field experiments and testing, and by doing so demonstrate that these ideas can work at scale in the real world. We also perform extensive simulation experiments to validate our ideas at even larger scales. We believe these experiments and the experimental results constitute a significant step forward toward advancing the state-of-the-art of large-scale, collaborative multi-robot systems operating with real communication, navigation, and perception constraints.

description: Peptone and Malmgren modified terrestrial orchid (MMTO) has been used as a growth medium for tissue culture applications. This research study was conducted to explore the influence of Mr. Trivedi’s biofield energy treatment on physicochemical properties of peptone and MMTO. The study was performed in two groups i.e. control and treated. The control group was kept aside as untreated, and the treated group was received the biofield energy treatment. The control and treated samples were further subjected to characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, particle size analyzer and surface area analyzer. The XRD analysis revealed the amorphous nature of the control and treated peptone samples. The DSC analysis showed an increase in thermal denaturation temperature of the treated peptone (196.22°C) as compared to the control sample (141.20°C). Additionally, the exothermic peak of treated sample (280°C) was increased as compared to the control (270°C). The DSC of control and treated MMTO showed the absence of the melting temperature in their respective DSC thermograms. The TGA analysis of the treated peptone showed an increase in onset of thermal degradation (172°C) with respect to the control (170°C). Nevertheless, the TGA thermogram of the treated MMTO (293.96°C) showed an increase in maximum thermal degradation temperature (Tmax) as compared with the control (281.41°C). It indicated the good thermal stability of the treated peptone and MMTO samples. The FT-IR result of the treated peptone showed an upward shift in C-H (2817→2833 cm-1), and amide I (1635→1641 cm-1), stretching in the treated sample with respect to the control sample. Whereas, the FT-IR spectrum of the treated MMTO showed an increase in the frequency of the C-H (2817→2833 cm-1) and amide I (1596→1606 cm-1) bands as compared to the control. Particle size analysis of the treated peptone showed an increase in d50 (average particle size) and d99 (size exhibited by 99% of particles) by 9.3 and 41.4%, respectively with respect to the control. Surface area analysis showed increase in surface area by 4.3% in the treated peptone. Altogether, the results corroborated that the biofield energy treatment had altered the physical, thermal and spectral properties of peptone and MMTO. It is assumed that biofield treated peptone and MMTO could be utilized as potential candidates for cell culture applications.
