A Survey on Error Exponents in Distributed Hypothesis Testing: Connections with Information Theory, Interpretations, and Applications

Author(s): Espinosa S; Silva JF; Céspedes S;

A central challenge in hypothesis testing (HT) lies in determining the optimal balance between Type I (false positive) and Type II (non-detection or false negative) error probabilities. Analyzing these errors' exponential rate of convergence, known as e ...

Evidence of isochorismate channeling between the Escherichia coli enterobactin biosynthetic enzymes EntC and EntB

Author(s): Bin X; Pawelek PD;

Enterobactin is a high-affinity iron chelator produced and secreted by Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium to scavenge scarce extracellular Fe3+ as a micronutrient. EntC and EntB are the first two enzymes in the enterobactin biosynthetic pathway. Is ...

A unified stochastic SIR model driven by Lévy noise with time-dependency

Author(s): Easlick T; Sun W;

We propose a unified stochastic SIR model driven by Lévy noise. The model is structural enough to allow for time-dependency, nonlinearity, discontinuity, demography, and environmental disturbances. We present concise results on the existence and uniqueness ...

Myelin basic protein mRNA levels affect myelin sheath dimensions, architecture, plasticity, and density of resident glial cells

Author(s): Bagheri H; Friedman H; Hadwen A; Jarweh C; Cooper E; Oprea L; Guerrier C; Khadra A; Collin A; Cohen-Adad J; Young A; Victoriano GM; Swire M; ...

Myelin basic protein (Mbp) is essential for both elaboration and maintenance of CNS myelin, and its reduced accumulation results in hypomyelination. How different Mbp mRNA levels affect myelin dime ...

Otilonium Bromide Exhibits Potent Antifungal Effects by Blocking Ergosterol Plasma Membrane Localization and Triggering Cytotoxic Autophagy in Candida Albicans

Author(s): Zhen C; Wang L; Feng Y; Whiteway M; Hang S; Yu J; Lu H; Jiang Y;

Candidiasis, which presents a substantial risk to human well-being, is frequently treated with azoles. However, drug-drug interactions caused by azoles inhibiting the human CYP3A4 enzyme, together with increasing resistance of Candida species to azoles, rep ...

Neural correlates of impulsivity in amphetamine use disorder

Author(s): Kaboodvand N; Shabanpour M; Guterstam J;

Impulsivity is a trait associated with several psychiatric conditions, not least addictive disorders. While the neural mechanisms behind certain aspects of impulsivity have been studied extensively, there are few imaging studies examining this neurocircuitr ...

Mechanisms and controlling factors of heavy metals removal by electroflocculation in estuarine environments

Author(s): Hadikhani R; Karbassi A; Tajziehchi S; Mehdizadeh Y;

Estuaries play a crucial role in preventing the influx of metals from rivers into seas, thereby offering potential insights for the water purification industry. This study seeks to identify the key parameters (including pH, electricity conductivity (EC), an ...
