The method of the local parabolic approximation for rough surface scattering
(Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1993-10)A method for evaluation of scattering from rough surfaces which is similar to the Kirchhoff approximation is considered. However, it is based on a local parabolic approximation of the surface irregularities rather than a ... -
The SSA+ for scattering from dielectric surfaces at very low grazing angles
(Taylor and Francis, 2011-02)In this paper we develop an extension of the small slope approximation (SSA) for scattering from randomly rough Dirichlet surfaces, which includes some multiple scattering. This extension is designated by SSA+. We focus ... -
Using an optimal set of features with a machine learning-based approach to predict effector proteins for Legionella pneumophila
(PLoS ONE, 2019)Type IV secretion systems exist in a number of bacterial pathogens and are used to secrete effector proteins directly into host cells in order to change their environment making the environment hospitable for the bacteria. ... -
Using protein clusters from whole proteomes to construct and augment a dendrogram
(Advances in Bioinformatics, 2013-01)In this paper we present a new ab initio approach for constructing an unrooted dendrogram using protein clusters, an approach that has the potential for estimating relationships among several thousands of species based on ... -
Validation of mixed-genome microarrays as a method for genetic discrimination
(Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2007-03)Comparative genomic hybridizations have been used to examine genetic relationships among bacteria. The microarrays used in these experiments may have open reading frames from one or more reference strains (whole-genome ... -
Whole proteome clustering of 2,307 Proteobacterial genomes reveals conserved proteins and significant annotation issues
(Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019)We clustered 8.76 M protein sequences deduced from 2,307 completely sequenced Proteobacterial genomes resulting in 707,311 clusters of one or more sequences of which 224,442 ranged in size from 2 to 2,894 sequences. To our ... -
Whole-proteome analysis of twelve species of Alphaproteobacteria links four pathogens
(Pathogens, 2013-01)Thousands of whole-genome and whole-proteome sequences have been made available through advances in sequencing technology, and sequences of millions more organisms will become available in the coming years. This wealth of ...
