    A system of serial computation for classified rules prediction in non-regular ontology trees

    No full text
    Objects or structures that are regular take uniform dimensions. Based on the concepts of regular models, our previous research work has developed a system of a regular ontology that models learning structures in a multiagent system for uniform pre-assessments in a learning environment. This regular ontology has led to the modelling of a classified rules learning algorithm that predicts the actual number of rules needed for inductive learning processes and decision making in a multiagent system. But not all processes or models are regular. Thus this paper presents a system of polynomial equation that can estimate and predict the required number of rules of a non-regular ontology model given some defined parameters

    Mapping of nanoparticles diffusion in cells

    No full text
    We mapped the diffusion of particles in the cytoplasm. To do so, we electroporated QDs-SB particles in cells as shown in Debayle et al 2019. Here we were using RPE1 cells. We present the recording of three cells and the scripts that we used to generate some maps of diffusion in the cell. The scripts were made to use the output tracks from Slimfast 1.103e but can be adapted by changeing the beginning of the script. Some functions were found in Matlab Central and their corresponding license is in their respective folders.</p

    Diffusion of nanoparticles in the cell cytoplasm

    No full text
    In Etoc 2018, we presented the diffusive behavior inside the cytosol of living cells for different kind of nanometric sized nanoparticles. We showed that the passivation of the particles is the main parameter that regulate the diffusion properties of particles smaller than 70nm not only in Hela cells but also in RPE1 and MSC cells. Here we open the data for the MSC cells. Experiments consists in the recording of small subregions of the cytoplasm located at the periphery of the cell. A README file is included in the archive with the recording parameters. DATA were recorded by Elie BALLOUL Scripts were written by Mathieu COPPEY, Fred ETOC and modified by Elie BALLOUL.(to use polyfit instead of ezyfit) We also make available the scripts that we used to generate the maps. Some functions were found in Matlab Central and their corresponding license is in their respective folders.</p

    Using Sea-Level Data to Constrain the Contribution of the Greenland Ice Sheet to Contemporary and Recent Sea-Level Change

    Due to the potentially wide-reaching impacts on climate and sea-level change of a declining Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS), the mass balance of the past decade has caused concern that the ice sheet is reacting to increased temperatures of the industrial era and that the ice sheet is in the initial stages of deglaciation. Global mean sea-level has been rising at a rate of 1.8 +/- 0.5 mm/yr over the past 50 years (Bindoff et al. 2007), and this has accelerated to 3.1 +/-0.1mm/yr (Cazenave et al., 2008) over the past decade. This study shows that although the surface mass balance of the GrIS can react quickly to changes in temperature, overall the ice sheet is in near balance over the period 1866-2005. During 1866-2005, the contribution from the GrIS to eustatic sea-level change is not larger than the error attached to current estimates of global mean sea-level rise. A novel type of relative sea-level data gathered from salt marshes in the south west of Greenland cover the period from ~1200 to 1800AD and show that a major slowdown in local sea-level rise from ~3mm/yr to ~0mm/yr occurred around 1500-1600 AD, with no significant departure from a 0mm/yr trend thereafter. Large contributions to sea-level change from steric changes and cryospheric sources outside of Greenland are ruled out as major drivers of this deceleration in sea-level fall. Modelling results indicate that the slowdown in relative sea-level is most likely due to the combined contribution of dynamic-related ice loss from Jakobshavn Isbrae and a delayed earth response to mass loss during a period of elevated temperatures from ~1000-1500AD. When considering the saltmarsh sea-level data for the 20th century within the context of the complete time series, the magnitude of ice loss in west Greenland for the past decade does not appear to be anomalous. This analysis suggests that similar mass loss has been sustained for several centuries prior to 1500AD
