description: (Abridged) We present a study of the structure and dynamics of the Corona Borealis Supercluster (z ~ 0.07) based on the redshifts for 528 galaxies in the supercluster. The galaxy distribution within Corona Borealis is clumpy and appears overall to be far from relaxed. A background supercluster at z ~ 0.11 makes a substantial contribution to the projected surface density of galaxies in the Corona Borealis field. In order to estimate the mass of the supercluster, we have assumed that the mass of the supercluster is proportional to v^2r, where v and r are suitable scale velocity and radius, respectively, and we have used N-body simulations of both critical- and low-density universes to determine the applicability of standard mass estimators based on this assumption. Although superclusters are obviously not in equilibrium, our simulations demonstrate that the virial mass estimator yields mass estimates with an insignificant bias and a dispersion of only ~25% for objects with overdensities >~ 5. Non-uniform spatial sampling can, however, cause systematic underestimates by as much as 30%. All of our simulated superclusters turn out to be bound, and based on the overdensity of the Corona Borealis supercluster, we believe it is also very likely to be bound and may well have started to collapse. The mass of Corona Borealis is at least 3 x 10^16 solar masses, which yields a B(AB)-band mass-to-light ratio of 564h (M/L)_solar on scales of ~20 h^-1 Mpc. The background supercluster has a mass-to-light ratio of 726h (M/L)_solar. By comparing the supercluster mass-to-light ratios with the critical mass-to-light ratio required to close the universe, we determine that Omega_0 >~ 0.4 on supercluster scales.

description: Snail (Sna) plays a pivotal role in epithelia-mesenchymal transition and cancer metastasis, yet its functions in normal tissue development remain elusive. Here, using Drosophila as a model organism, we identified Sna as an essential regulator of Hippo signalling-mediated cell proliferation and tissue growth. First, Sna is necessary and sufficient for impaired Hippo signalling-induced cell proliferation and tissue overgrowth. Second, Sna is necessary and sufficient for the expression of Hippo pathway target genes. Third, genetic epistasis data indicate Sna acts downstream of Yki in the Hippo signalling. Finally, Sna is physiologically required for tissue growth in normal development. Mechanistically, Yki activates the transcription of sna, whose protein product binds to Scalloped (Sd) and promotes Sd-dependent cell proliferation. Thus, this study uncovered a previously unknown physiological function of Sna in normal tissue development and revealed the underlying mechanism by which Sna modulates Hippo signalling-mediated cell proliferation and tissue growth.

description: We discuss the influence of anomalous tbar-t-G couplings on total and differential tbar-t production cross sections in hadron-hadron collisions. We study in detail the effects of a chromoelectric and a chromomagnetic dipole moment, d' and μ', of the top quark. In the d'-μ' plane, we find a whole region where the anomalous couplings give a zero net contribution to the total top production rate. In differential cross sections, the anomalous moments have to be quite sizable to give measurable effects. We estimate the values of d' and μ' which are allowed by the present Tevatron experimental results on top production. A chromoelectric dipole moment of the top violates CP invariance. We discuss a simple CP-odd observable which allows for a direct search for CP violation in top production.

description: There have been several reports of exotic nuclear fragments, with highly unusual charge to mass ratio, in cosmic ray experiments. Although there exist experimental uncertainties which make them, at best, only candidate "exotic" events, it is important to understand what they could be, if they are eventually confirmed. Among other possible explanations, some authors have interpreted them to be lumps of strange quark matter (strangelets). A major problem with such an interpretation is that to reach the earth's surface, they must possess an unusually high penetrability through the terrestrial atmosphere. We show that a recently proposed mechanism for the propagation of strangelets through the earth's atmosphere, together with a proper account of charge capture and ionisation loss, would solve this problem. We also argue that this could lead to viable strategies for definitive detection of strange quark matter in cosmic ray flux using a ground based large area array of passive detectors.

description: The Approach-Avoidance Job Crafting Scale (AAJCS) builds on our adjusted version of a hierarchical structure of job crafting by Zhang and Parker from 2019. In developing and validating the new AAJCS, we, first, developed the German items in a stepwise procedure (pilot study). Second, we tested the factor structure and reliability (Study 1). Third, we replicated previous results and tested the construct validity (Study 2). Fourth, we ensured the criterion validity of the AAJCS (Study 3). The results suggested the existence of two independent factors, namely, approach and avoidance crafting, rather than a global job crafting factor. Furthermore, approach and avoidance crafting each consist of four job crafting dimensions, thus reflecting the hierarchical structure of job crafting. Within these dimensions, aspects of previous job crafting concepts are integrated. The distinction between approach and avoidance crafting became apparent in the comparison of their criterion validities as follows: Approach crafting was positively related to work-related outcomes, while avoidance crafting was negatively associated with work engagement and performance. Furthermore, approach and avoidance crafting exhibited incremental validity with regard to predict work engagement and performance beyond previous job crafting concepts. Approach crafting was positively associated while avoidance crafting was negatively associated with work engagement and performance.

description: Multivariate data arise frequently in biomedical and health studies where multiple response variables are collected across subjects. Unlike a univariate procedure fitting each response separately, a multivariate regression model provides a unique opportunity in studying the joint evolution of various response variables. In this paper, we propose two estimation procedures that improve estimation efficiency for the regression parameter by accommodating correlations among the response variables. The proposed procedures do not require knowledge of the true correlation structure nor does it estimate the parameters associated with the correlation. Theoretical and simulation results confirm that the proposed estimators are more efficient than the one obtained from the univariate approach. We further propose simple and powerful inference procedures for a goodness-of-fit test that possess the chi-squared asymptotic properties. Extensive simulation studies suggest that the proposed tests are more powerful than the Wald test based on the univariate procedure. The proposed methods are also illustrated through the mother’s stress and children’s morbidity study.
The Effect of Streptococcus pneumoniae infection on Peroxisomal Fatty Acid Oxidation
Creators: name: Foulke, Marilyn L. Dury
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 1980

description: Previous data on rats inoculated with S. pneumoniae have shown decreased hepatic ketogenesis as measured by the production of ketone bodies from livers perfused with oleic acid. However, no differences were observed in the ability of isolated mitochondria to oxidize long- chain fatty acids. Since peroxisomes are also involved in the oxidation of long-chain fatty acids, the possibility of their involvement in the intrahepatic control of ketogenesis during S. pneumoniae infection was examined. Liver homogenates from 46-h fasted- control and fasted-infected rats were fractionated by isopycnic sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Fractions were characterized by the following marker enzymes: 5'-nucleotidase (plasma membranes); glutamate dehydrogenases (mitochondria); N-acetyl--glucosaminidase (lysosomes); NADPH cytochrome c reductase (endoplasmic reticulum); and catalase (peroxisomes). KCN-insensitive oxidation of palmitoyl-CoA and fatty acid ligase were measured. A 50% decrease in catalase activity was found in the peroxisomal-rich fractions of infected rats compared to controls but no change was observed in the palmitoyl-CoA oxidizing system or fatty acid ligase. Hence, neither the palmitoyl-CoA oxidizing system nor the fatty acid ligase of the peroxisomal-rich fraction appear to be responsible for the reduced rate of ketone body formation associated with infectious illness.

The Stellar Orbital Structure in Axisymmetric Galaxy Models with Supermassive Black Hole Binaries

description: It has been well-established that particular centrophilic orbital families in non-spherical galaxies can, in principle, drive a black hole binary to shrink its orbit through three-body scattering until the black holes are close enough to strongly emit gravitational waves. Most of these studies rely on orbital analysis of a static SMBH-embedded galaxy potential to support this view; it is not clear, however, how these orbits transform as the second SMBH enters the center, so our understanding of which orbits actually interact with a SMBH binary is not ironclad. Here, we analyze two flattened galaxy models, one with a single SMBH and one with a binary, to determine which orbits actually do interact with the SMBH binary and how they compare with the set predicted in single SMBH-embedded models. We find close correspondence between the centrophilic orbits predicted to interact with the binary and those that are actually scattered by the binary, in terms of energy and Lz distribution, where Lz is the z component of a stellar particle's angular momentum. Of minor note: because of the larger mass, the binary SMBH has a radius of influence about 4 times larger than in the single SMBH model, which allows the binary to draw from a larger reservoir of orbits to scatter. Of the prediction particles and scattered particles, nearly half have chaotic orbits, 40% have fx:fy=1:1 orbits, 10% have other resonant orbits.
DEVELOPMENT OF AN ENZYME-LINKED IMMUNOSORBENT ASSAY (ELISA) TO SCREEN FOR AUTOANTIBODIES TO EXTRACTABLE NUCLEAR ANTIGENS
Creators: name: Flynn, Deborah A.
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 1997

description: The purpose of this study was to determine whether it is possible to coat six different autoantigens simultaneously on a polystyrene microtiter plate for use in an Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay (ELISA), and still maintain the sensitivity and specificity to qualify as a diagnostic test for autoimmune disease. When compared to the traditional Ouchterlony test, the Extractable Nuclear Antigen (ENA), ELISA demonstrated high sensitivity (100.0%) and specificity (97.7%). The overall relative agreement was 98.7%. Precision, or reproducibility, was determined by testing 5 positive sera and 2 negative sera ten times per plate on three replicates. The mean intra-assay coefficient of variation for the positive sera was 5.04%, and the mean inter-assay coefficient of variation was 6.46%. The linearity of the assay was demonstrated by testing two-fold serial dilutions of five different sera and comparing the values to the log2 of the dilution. The mean r value was 0.980. The solid phase ENA plates were shown to have a shelf life of one year. To determine efficacy, sera were obtained from 440 Lupus patients in a cohort at Johns Hopkins and assayed on the ENA ELISA to determine the prevalence of autoantibodies detected in a Lupus population. The prevalence was 61.4% positive for autoantibodies to ENAs. Overall, the data in this thesis demonstrates that the ENA ELISA is equivalent to traditional methods of screening for autoantibodies in sera of patients with autoimmune disease. In addition ELISA tests have the advantages of an objective reading method, automation, time efficiency, and a high degree of sensitivity and specificity.

Twelve-Dimensional Supersymmetric Gauge Theory as the Large N Limit

Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Starting with the ordinary ten-dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory for the gauge group U(N), we obtain a twelve-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theory as the large N limit. The two symplectic canonical coordinates parametrizing the unitary N X N matrices for U(N) are identified with the extra coordinates in twelve dimensions in the $N\to\infty$ limit. Applying further a strong/weak duality, we get the `decompactified' twelve-dimensional theory. The resulting twelve-dimensional theory has peculiar gauge symmetry which is compatible also with supersymmetry. We also establish a corresponding new superspace formulation with the extra coordinates. By performing a dimensional reduction from twelve dimensions directly into three dimensions, we see that the Poisson bracket terms which are needed for identification with supermembrane action arises naturally. This result indicates an universal duality mechanism that the 't Hooft limit of an arbitrary supersymmetric theory promotes the original supersymmetric theory in (D-1,1) dimensions into a theory in (D,2) dimensions with an additional pair of space-time coordinates. This also indicates interesting dualities between supermembrane theory, type IIA superstring with D0-branes, and the recently-discovered twelve-dimensional supersymmetric theories.

description: A social practice theory informed by industrial ecology and circular economy concepts is used to understand the unsustainable electronic material flows through Australian households. The thesis argues that sustainability of electronic devices within households is a complex and interconnected process involving device-use in everyday household practices that support household day-to-day living. It also involves understanding how and why household practices inform device acquisition, retirement and divestment. Improvements in sustainability are, therefore, dependent on re-configuring everyday household practices whilst, at the same time, acknowledging household diversity and difference, ongoing contextual changes and ensuring social equity outcomes.
MACROPHAGE FUNCTION AND THE CYTOSKELETAL SYSTEM: INHIBITION OF PHAGOCYTIC UPTAKE BY THE CYTOSKELETAL DISRUPTIVE TERTIARY AMINE LOCAL ANESTHETICS
Creators: name: Fogler, William E.
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 1977

description: The macrophage participates in immunological phenomena which must be mediated through its cell periphery. Of these phenomena, the ability of the macrophage to actively phagocytise opsonized particles long has been familiar to students of inflammation and immune reactions. The phagocytic response of the macrophage to opsonized particles is initiated only after recognition between the macrophage membrane and the opsonized particle is established. The mechanism by which recognition at the cell surface is translated into the phagocytic response by the macrophage remains to be elucidated. Observations at the subcellular level have implicated the cytoskeletal system, an orderly array of subplasmalemmal microfilaments and microtubules, as a participant in the phagocytic response of macrophages. Recent observations on the pharmacologic ability of tertiary amine local anesthetics to disrupt the cytoskeletal system of various cell types resulting in cell surface rearrangement (Poste et al., 1975; Poste, Papahadjopoulos and Nicolson, 1975), has provided means by which to obtain data on the coordinated function of microfilaments and microtubules in phagocytising macrophages.

description: This article presents our theoretical musings on practicing decolonization as Christian Tongan academics, recorded and shared within our Australian collective during 2022-2023. We aim to discuss the strength and power that comes from our Indigenous inheritance of God and Tonga, living in diaspora of Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand (tu'a Tonga). Amidst this Indigenous strength, there are also subtleties and crescendos of coloniality taking place in and around us, as well as the complexities and vulnerabilities with which Tongan Christian academics grapple in their sense making and meaning making processes. The significance of this discussion is that Oceanian women’s opinions and experiences of decoloniality are not often considered, particularly within the contexts of academia. We pray this article offers insights into how we can successfully navigate simultaneous private, public, individual, and collective journeys, daily, as Christian academics in the decolonization of these various spaces. This is our contribution as Christian academics, as daughters of Tonga, and wives and mothers of Oceania.

description: Interactions in a spin-polarized ultracold Fermi gas are governed by $p$-wave collisions and can be characterized by the $p$-wave scattering volume. Control of these collisions by Feshbach resonances is hampered by huge inelastic losses. Here, we suggest non-resonant light control of $p$-wave collisions, exploiting the anisotropic coupling of non-resonant light to the polarizability of the atoms. The $p$-wave scattering volume can be controlled by strong non-resonant light, in close analogy to the $s$-wave scattering length. For collision partners that are tightly trapped, the non-resonant light induces an energy shift directly related to the generalized scattering volume. This effect could be used to climb the ladder of the trap. We also show that controlling the generalized scattering volume implies control, at least roughly, over the orientation of the interparticle axis relative to the polarization direction of the light at short interatomic distances. Our proposal is based on an asymptotic model that explicitly accounts for the anisotropic dipole-dipole interaction which governs the ultracold collision dynamics at long-range.

IMAGES OF READING AND INTERPRETATION IN THE DIVINA COMMEDIA
Creators: name: Fornwalt, Jessica
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2016

description: Embargoed
description: This essay looks closely at imagery and allegorical interpretation in the Divina Commedia by Dante Alighieri. Specifically, this paper explores the images of reading within the work and what appears to be Dante's attempt to shape his readers. In this essay, images of reading from all three sections of the Commedia: Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. In Inferno, the images of blocked interpretation are discussed. It is in these images where Dante provides his readers with characters who are either unable to reach the allegorical interpretation, and these examples serve to educate the reader of the importance of being able to allegorically interpret images as they read the Commedia. In Purgatorio, the images of the Pilgrim's dreams are analyzed, looking specifically at the increasing capability of allegorical interpretation on the part of the Pilgrim. Finally, in Paradiso, the discussion focuses mainly on the shortcomings of human intellect. Here, examples of the Pilgrim's inability to interpret what he sees without divine intervention and how in retrospect, readers are able to more fully understand the allegory of the Commedia just as the Pilgrim is able to fully understand everything in the moment of his epiphany at the end of the poem.
THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN ENZYME-LINKED IMMUNOSORBENT ASSAY(ELISA) FOR THE DETECTION OF ANTIBODIES TO TREPONEMA PALLIDUM SUBSPECIES PALLIDUM
Creators: name: Flanders, Susan C.

description: An enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for the detection of specific antibodies to Treponema pallidum subspecies pallidum, the causative agent of syphilis. When compared to a commercial (DCL) Syphilis G ELISA, the newly developed Syphilis ELISA was found to have a relative sensitivity of 98.7%, a relative specificity of 99.5%, and overall agreement of 99.3%. The assay was also shown to have a relative sensitivity of 92.7%, a relative specificity of 99.5%, and 97.5% agreement when compared to the FTA-ABS Assay, the current assay of choice for the confirmation of treponemal antibodies produced in response to syphilis infection. The Syphilis ELISA showed excellent intra-assay and inter-assay reproducibility. There was < 10% intra-assay coefficient of variation when a set of six serum samples with different antibody levels were run on the Syphilis ELISA, and replicated at least eight times within each assay. There was < 20% inter-assay coefficient of variation when the same six samples were run on the Syphilis ELISA on three separate days. Accelerated stability testing was initiated on the solid phase antigen coated plates used in the Syphilis ELISA. The data accumulated showed that the antigen coated plates were stable at least eight weeks when stored at 2-8°C. Accelerated stability testing was also completed for eight weeks with plates stored at 22-25°C, 37°C, and 45°C. The data generated showed that there was acceptable stability at both 37°C, and 45°C for at least eight weeks. Overall, it was shown that a sensitive, specific ELISA was developed for the detection of antitreponemal antibodies. The Syphilis ELISA demonstrated sensitivity and specificity comparable to that of the DCL Syphilis G Assay and the FTA-ABS test. The Syphilis ELISA will be a rapid, objective alternative for the confirmation of a syphilis infection.

description: Among several analytic approximations for the growth of density fluctuations in the expanding Universe, Zel'dovich approximation in Lagrangian coordinate scheme is known to be unusually accurate even in mildly non-linear regime. This approximation is very similar to the Padé approximation in appearance. We first establish, however, that these two are actually different and independent approximations with each other by using a model of spheroidal mass collapse. Then we propose Padé-prescribed Zel'dovich-type approximations and demonstrate, within this model, that they are much accurate than any other known nonlinear approximations.

description: The next--to--leading order inclusive cross section for large-$p_\perp$ photoproduction of charm quarks at HERA is calculated in two different approaches. In the first approach the charm quarks are treated as massive objects which are strictly external to the proton and the photon while in the second approach the charm mass is neglected and the $c$ quark is assumed to be one of the active flavours in the proton and photon structure functions. We present single-inclusive distributions in transverse momentum and rapidity including direct and resolved photons. The cross section in the massless approach is found to be significantly larger than in the massive scheme. The deviation originates from several contributions which are disentangled. We argue that large-$p_\perp$ photoproduction of charm quarks at HERA will be sensitive to the charm content of the photon structure function.

Exponential bounds for the tail probability of the supremum of an inhomogeneous random walk

description: Let $\{ξ_1,ξ_2,\ldots\}$ be a sequence of independent but not necessarily identically distributed random variables. In this paper, the sufficient conditions are found under which the tail probability $\mathbb{P}(\sup_{n\geqslant0}\sum_{i=1}^nξ_i>x)$ can be bounded above by $\varrho_1\exp\{-\varrho_2x\}$ with some positive constants $\varrho_1$ and $\varrho_2$. A way to calculate these two constants is presented. The application of the derived bound is discussed and a Lundberg-type inequality is obtained for the ultimate ruin probability in the inhomogeneous renewal risk model satisfying the net profit condition on average.

description: We have reexamined the electromagnetic corrections to the weak interaction rates for the transformation of neutrons to protons, and protons to neutrons, in the early universe, before freeze-out. We derive compact expressions for these rates in terms of thermal expectation values of products of fields, and we give explicit constructions of the terms to order e^2. We disagree in several respects with results in the literature.

description: Rare diseases (RDs) affect fewer than 5 people in 10,000. Due to this low prevalence, individual European Union (EU) member states and registries have difficulties constructing databases large enough to perform valid research. Interoperability (I) between registries would support the construction of these databases; therefore, the EU defined 16 common data elements to be registered by all RD registries. We aimed to make this common set FAIR for the registry of vascular anomalies (VASCA), to also ensure findability (F), accessibility (A), and reusability (R). FAIR datasets allow for pooling of data from multiple sources, providing researchers with more data for their research. In this demonstration, we show how an online data capture tool (Castor EDC) allows real-time FAIRification of collected registry data. A semantic model and Twig template are used to automatically transform data, upon entry into the eCRF (electronic Case Report Form), into RDF (Resource Description Framework) triples, a machine-readable format, to make the data FAIR. This implementation can be re-used and adapted for eCRFs of other registries or clinical studies.

description: Membrane source-probe dynamics is investigated in the framework of the finite N-sector DLCQ M theory compactified on a transverse two-torus for an arbitrary size of the longitudinal dimension. The non-perturbative two fermion terms in the effective action of the matrix theory, the (2+1)-dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, that are related to the four derivative F^4 terms by the supersymmetry transformation are obtained, including the one-loop term and full instanton corrections. On the supergravity side, we compute the classical probe action up to two fermion terms based on the classical supermembrane formulation in an arbitrary curved background geometry produced by source membranes satisfying the BPS condition; two fermion terms correspond to the spin-orbit couplings for membranes. We find precise agreement between two approaches when the background space-time is chosen to be that of the DLCQ M theory, which is asymptotically locally Anti-de Sitter.

Imprints of white dwarf recoil in the separation distribution of Gaia wide binaries

description: We construct from Gaia DR2 an extensive and very pure ($\lesssim 0.2\%$ contamination) catalog of wide binaries containing main-sequence (MS) and white dwarf (WD) components within 200 pc of the Sun. The public catalog contains, after removal of clusters and resolved higher-order multiples, $>$50,000 MS/MS, $>$3,000 WD/MS, and nearly 400 WD/WD binaries with projected separations of $50 \lesssim s/{\rm AU} < 50,000$. Accounting for incompleteness and selection effects, we model the separation distribution of each class of binaries as a broken power-law, revealing marked differences between the three populations. The separation distribution of MS/MS systems is nearly consistent with a single power-law of slope $-1.6$ over at least $500 < s/{\rm AU} < 50,000$, with marginal steepening at $s > 10,000$ AU. In contrast, the separation distributions of WD/MS and WD/WD binaries show distinct breaks at $\sim$ 3,000 AU and $\sim$1,500 AU, respectively: they are flatter than the MS/MS distribution at small separations and steeper at large separations. Using binary population synthesis models, we show that these breaks are unlikely to be caused by external factors but can be explained if the WDs incur a kick of $\sim$ 0.75 km s$^{-1}$ during their formation, presumably due to asymmetric mass loss. The data rule out typical kick velocities above 2km s$^{-1}$. Our results imply that most wide binaries with separations exceeding a few thousand AU become unbound during post-MS evolution.

Gravitational Microlensing with the Space Interferometry Mission
Creators: name: Paczynski, Bohdan
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Space Interferometry Mission (SIM), with its launch date planned for 2005, has as its goal astrometry with ~ 1 micro-arcsecond accuracy for stars as faint as 20th mag. If the SIM lives to expectations it can be used to measure astrometric displacements in the light centroid caused by gravitational microlensing in the events detected photometrically from the ground. The effect is typically ~ 0.1 mas, i.e. two orders of magnitude larger than planned SIM's accuracy. Therefore, it will be possible to determine the mass, the distance, and the proper motion of almost any MACHO capable of inducing a photometric microlensing event towards the galactic bulge or the Magellanic Clouds, even though no light from the MACHO has to be detected. For strong microlensing events in which the source is photometrically resolved, like the recent MACHO 95-30 event, SIM's astrometry combined with accurate ground based photometry will allow the determination of the angular stellar radii, and therefore the effective temperature of the source. The effective astrometric cross sections for gravitational lensing by nearby high proper motion stars and brown dwarfs are ~ (1'')^2 and the effective time scales are ~ 1 year. SIM will provide the only practical way to measure masses of single nearby objects with ~ 1% accuracy. The times of lensing events can be predicted years ahead of time.

Coleman-Weinberg Mechanism and Interaction of D3-Branes in Type 0 String Theory

Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: The low-energy theory on the world volume of parallel static D3-branes of type 0 strings is the Yang-Mills theory with six scalar fields in the adjoint representation. One-loop corrections in this theory induce Coleman-Weinberg effective potential, which can be interpreted as an interaction energy of D3-branes. The potential is repulsive at short distances and attractive at large ones. In the equilibrium, a large number of D3-branes forms a spherical shell with the radius proportional to the characteristic energy scale of the world-volume theory.

description: Current approaches to identifying drug-drug interactions (DDIs), which involve clinical evaluation of drugs and post-marketing surveillance, are unable to provide complete, accurate information, nor do they alert the public to potentially dangerous DDIs before the drugs reach the market. Predicting potential drug-drug interaction helps reduce unanticipated drug interactions and drug development costs and optimizes the drug design process. Many bioinformatics databases have begun to present their data as Linked Open Data (LOD), a graph data model, using Semantic Web technologies. The knowledge graphs provide a powerful model for defining the data, in addition to making it possible to use underlying graph structure for extraction of meaningful information. In this work, we have applied Knowledge Graph (KG) Embedding approaches to extract feature vector representation of drugs using LOD to predict potential drug-drug interactions. We have investigated the effect of different embedding methods on the DDI prediction and showed that the knowledge embeddings are powerful predictors and comparable to current state-of-the-art methods for inferring new DDIs. We have applied Logistic Regression, Naive Bayes and Random Forest on Drugbank KG with the 10-fold traditional cross validation (CV) using RDF2Vec, TransE and TransD. RDF2Vec with uniform weighting surpass other embedding methods.
