We enumerate all local minima of the energy landscape for model rigid adsorbates characterized by three or four equivalent binding sites (e.g., thiol groups) on a close-packed (111) surface of a face-centered-cubic crystal. We show that the…

Statistical detection of a rare class of objects in a two-class classification problem can pose several challenges. Because the class of interest is rare in the training data, there is relatively little information in the known class…

Lipophilicity is one of the factors determining the permeability of the cell membrane to a drug molecule. Hence, accurate lipophilicity prediction is an essential step in the development of new drugs. In this paper, we introduce a novel…

We apply a number of atomic decomposition schemes across the standard QM7 dataset -- a small model set of organic molecules at equilibrium geometry -- to inspect the possible emergence of trends among contributions to atomization energies…

The accurate classification of lymphoma subtypes using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained tissue is complicated by the wide range of morphological features these cancers can exhibit. We present LymphoML - an interpretable machine learning…

Plasmonic metasurfaces are promising as enablers of nanoscale nonlinear optics and flat nonlinear optical components. Nonlinear optical responses of such metasurfaces are determined by the nonlinear optical properties of individual…

Polymer materials have the characteristic feature that they are multiscale systems by definition. Already the description of a single molecules involves a multitude of different scales, and cooperative processes in polymer assemblies are…

Lattice protein models, as the Hydrophobic-Polar (HP) model, are a common abstraction to enable exhaustive studies on structure, function, or evolution of proteins. A main issue is the high number of optimal structures, resulting from the…

We study the localisation of lattice polymer models near a permeable interface in two dimensions. Localisation can arise due to an interaction between the polymer and the interface, and can be altered by a preference for the bulk solvent on…

In a similar way in which the folding of single--domain proteins provide an important test in the study of self--organization, the folding of homodimers constitute a basic challenge in the quest for the mechanisms which are at the basis of…

When an object moves smoothly across a field of view, the identify of the object is unchanged, but the activation pattern of the photoreceptors on the retina changes drastically. One of the major computational roles of our visual system is…

An approach to lesion recognition is described that for lesion localization uses an ensemble of segmentation techniques and for lesion classification an exhaustive structural analysis. For localization, candidate regions are obtained from…

We consider the adsorption of a random heteropolymer onto an interface within the model by Garel et al. [1] by taking into account self-interactions between the monomers. Within the replica trick and by using a self-consistent preaveraging…

We consider integrable models, or in general any model defined by an $R$-matrix, on random surfaces, which are discretized using random Manhattan lattices. The set of random Manhattan lattices is defined as the set dual to the lattice…

Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are one of the most fundamental and widely used statistical tools for modeling discrete time series. In general, learning HMMs from data is computationally hard (under cryptographic assumptions), and…
