A better algorithm for random k-SAT
Get PDFLet Φ be a uniformly distributed random k-SAT formula with n variables and m clauses. We present a polynomial time algorithm that finds a satisfying assignment of Φ with high probability for constraint densities m/n < (1 − εk)2k ln(k)/k, where εk → 0. Previously no efficient algorithm was known to find satisfying assignments with a nonvanishing probability beyond m/n = 1.817 · 2k/k [A. Frieze and S. Suen, J. Algorithms, 20 (1996), pp. 312–355]

The Condensation Phase Transition in the Regular k-SAT Model
Get PDFMuch of the recent work on phase transitions in discrete structures has been inspired by ingenious but non-rigorous approaches from physics. The physics predictions typically come in the form of distributional fixed point problems that mimic Belief Propagation, a message passing algorithm. In this paper we show how the Belief Propagation calculation can be turned into a rigorous proof of such a prediction, namely the existence and location of a condensation phase transition in the regular k-SAT model

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

SOFRALIK ZEYTİNLERDE BİYOJEN AMİN MİKTARLARININ BELİRLENMESİ
No full textBu çalışmada Yüksek Performanslı Sıvı Kromotografisi (HPLC) yöntemi kullanılarak piyasadan temin edilen 40 adet çeşitli tipteki sofralık yeşil ve siyah zeytin örneklerindeki biyojen amin miktarları belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca örneklerde toplam mezofilik aerobik bakteriler (TMAB), enterobakteri ve maya-küf sayımları da yapılmıştır. Zeytin örneklerinde belirlenen TMAB sayım sonuçları; açık tipteki siyah zeytin örneklerinde 3,52-6,83 log kob/g, vakum paketlenmiş siyah zeytin örneğinde 4,00 log kob/g, açık tipteki yeşil zeytin örneklerinde < 2-5,88 log kob/g olarak bulunurken, sterilize ve pastörize siyah zeytin örneklerinde ve pastörize yeşil zeytin örneklerinde < 2 log kob/g olarak saptanmıştır. Tüm örneklerde enterobakteri sayım sonuçları 2 log kob/g' dan düşük olarak belirlenmiştir. Maya sayım sonuçlarının açık tipteki siyah zeytin örneklerinde 3,30-6,65 log kob/g, vakum paketlenmiş siyah zeytin örneğinde 3,39 log kob/g ve açık tipteki yeşil zeytin örneklerinde < 2-5,82 log kob/g aralığında değişim gösterdiği, pastörize ve sterilize siyah zeytin örnekleri ile pastörize yeşil zeytin örneklerinde ise 2 log kob/g' dan daha az olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Araştırmada yalnızca 3 adet açık tipteki siyah zeytin örneğinde 3,11-3,85 log kob/g aralığında küf bulunurken, diğer örneklerde küf bulgusuna rastlanmamıştır. Zeytinlerde en yüksek konsantrasyona sahip biyojen aminler, sırasıyla, triptamin (6,705 mg/kg 9 nolu örnek), tiramin (6,230 mg/kg 2 nolu örnek) ve feniletilamin (2,295 mg/kg 2 nolu örnek) olarak belirlenmiştir. Belirlenen değerler içerisinde en düşük konsantrasyon aralığına sahip biyojen aminin histamin, rastlanma sıklığı en düşük biyojen aminin ise spermin olduğu görülmüştür. Analiz edilen tüm örneklerin biyojen amin değerleri ile mikrobiyolojik bulguları arasında düzenli bir artış veya azalma olmadığı, zeytin örneklerinin siyah, yeşil, açık, pastörize, sterilize veya vakum paketli olmalarının biyojen amin oluşumunda büyük değişikliklere yol açmadığı, ve zeytin örneklerinde belirlenen feniletilamin, putresin, histamin, tiramin ve toplam biyojen amin miktarlarının toksik limitlerin altında olduğu anlaşılmıştır
