A multilevel layout algorithm for visualizing physical and genetic interaction networks, with emphasis on their modular organization
The multilevel approach provided both biologically relevant and visually pleasant layout solutions in most network types, hence complementing the layout options available in Cytoscape. In particular, it could improve drawing of large-scale networks of yeast genetic interactions and human physical interactions. In more general terms, the biological evaluation framework developed here enables one to assess the layout solutions from any existing or future graph drawing algorithm as well as to optimize their performance for a given network type or structure.

Case Study: Sage Bionetworks and Amazon SWF - http://goo.gl/5Ml37 - Amazon Simple Workflow Service
>> http://synapse.sagebase.org/
Sage Bionetworks built an on-line environment, called Synapse. Synapse hosts clinical-genomic datasets and provides researchers with a platform for collaborative analyses. Amazon Simple Workflow Service (Amazon SWF) is a key technology leveraged in Synapse. Synapse relies on Amazon SWF to orchestrate complex, heterogeneous scientific workflows.
Open Integrated Workspace
Synapse is different from, and complementary to, other ongoing efforts. It is distinct from the data warehouses (e.g. NCBI, EBI) in that it goes beyond the repository database model to incentivize the creation of active community-based analysis and modeling groups. Synapse will incorporate existing tools such as, GenePattern, Taverna, Galaxy, and geWorkbench.

□ Fast and Robust Characterization of Time-Heterogeneous Sequence Evolutionary Processes Using Substitution Mapping
>> http://t.co/HZeJfaVi
Genes and genomes do not evolve similarly in all branches of the tree of life. Detecting and characterizing the heterogeneity in time, and between lineages, of the nucleotide (or amino acid) substitution process is an important goal of current molecular evolutionary research. Consequently, we show that the new approach is essentially as efficient as and extremely faster than (up to 25 000 times) existing methods, thus paving the way for a systematic survey of substitution process heterogeneity across genes and lineages.
Two improved mapping methods have been proposed: Bayesian Mutational Mapping (BMM, [9]) and Probabilistic Substitution Mapping (PSM). They both use Markov chains to model the substitution process and account for the uncertainty in the ancestral states.

【情報理論】なぜ一部のミームだけが急速に広まるのか （Scientific Reports）http://nature.asia/HzfOSH
The wide adoption of social media has increased the competition among ideas for our finite attention. We employ a parsimonious agent-based model to study whether such a competition may affect the popularity of different memes, the diversity of information we are exposed to, and the fading of our collective interests for specific topics.
Agents share messages on a social network but can only pay attention to a portion of the information they receive. In the emerging dynamics of information diffusion, a few memes go viral while most do not. The predictions of our model are consistent with empirical data from Twitter, a popular microblogging platform. Surprisingly, we can explain the massive heterogeneity in the popularity and persistence of memes as deriving from a combination of the competition for our limited attention and the structure of the social network, without the need to assume different intrinsic values among ideas.

□ Spinor representation for loop quantum gravity
>> http://t.co/N9qB4kVf
ARBITRARY GRAPHS AND CONTINUUM
"a framework to describe the behavior of gravitational dynamics at the Planck scale."
a quantization of the loop gravity phase space purely in terms of spinorial variables, which have recently been shown to provide a direct link between spin network states and simplicial geometries. The natural Hilbert space to represent these spinors is the Bargmann space of holomorphic square-integrable functions over complex numbers.
We show the unitary equivalence between the resulting generalized Bargmann space and the standard loop quantum gravity Hilbert space by explicitly constructing the unitary map. The latter maps SU(2)-holonomies, when written as a function of spinors, to their holomorphic part. We analyze the properties of this map in detail. We show that the subspace of gauge invariant states can be characterized particularly easy in this representation of loop gravity. Furthermore, this map provides a tool to efficiently calculate physical quantities since integrals over the group are exchanged for straightforward integrals over the complex plane.

天動説の時代とは違うけれど、気候変動論が「十分に疑わしい」もので、温暖化を否定するデータや解釈が「平等に公表されているのなら」、その二項対立には量的拮抗がみられるはずである。だけどそうなっていない理由として考えられるのは3つだけ。『大多数のメソッドが誤っている』『出版界と学会の圧力』そして『気候変動が起こっている』

In 1951-1980, it was only at most 0.2 percent of the globe’s land area that you had extremely hot summers. Now it is ten percent of global land area. And the change will be costly, even in North America. In 2011, the US was struck by 14 extreme weather events that caused more than $1 billion each in damages.
