Abstract:
The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for predicting the dispersion of hazardous and noxious substances and, more specifically, provides an apparatus and a method for predicting the dispersion of hazardous and noxious substances, the method: checking the components of the hazardous and noxious substances having leaked into the ocean, so as to classify the hazardous and noxious substances into a corresponding classification set among twelve classification sets by means of at least one of vapor pressure, the degradation in water, or density; dividing the classification sets, in which the hazardous and noxious substances are classified, into one dispersion model among an air dispersion model, a seawater dispersion model, and an air/seawater dispersion model according to the dispersion characteristics thereof; acquiring, from a weather center server, the state information of a sea area, which is set to be different according to the divided dispersion models; and predicting a danger radius for the dispersion of the hazardous and noxious substances by using the acquired state information of the sea area, and outputting the same.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed to determine that a cannabis plant has been cultivated under desired cultivation conditions. Quantitative processes are disclosed, based on stable carbon isotope ratio analysis, and using modeling constraints and Bayesian approaches to produce a likelihood that a cannabis plant was cultivated under desired conditions (e.g., indoors), and provide a quantitative estimate of the average CO2 concentration in the growth environment.
Abstract:
A device for analyzing measurement data having a plurality of data sets, each data set being assigned to a respective one of a plurality of measurements, each data set having multiple features being indicative of different fractions of a fluidic sample, the device comprising a cluster determining unit configured for determining feature clusters by clustering features from different data sets presumably relating to the same fraction, a spread determining unit configured for determining for at least a part of the feature clusters a spread of the features within a respective feature cluster, and a display unit configured for displaying at least the part of the feature clusters together with a graphical indication of the corresponding spread.
Abstract:
A system and method for analyzing chemical data including a processor and one or more classifiers, stored in memory and coupled to the processor, which further includes an indication predictive module configured to predict whether a given chemical treats a particular indication or not and a side effect predictive module configured to predict whether a given chemical causes a side-effect or not. A correlation engine is configured to determine one or more correlations between one or more indications and one or more side effects for the given chemical and a visualization tool is configured to analyze the one or more correlations and to output results of the analysis.
Abstract:
Certain embodiments of the invention may include systems and methods for identifying drug targets using biological networks. According to an example embodiment of the invention, a method is provided for predicting the effects of drug targets on treating a disease. The method can include constructing a structure of a Bayesian network based at least in part on knowledge of drug inhibiting effects on a disease; associating a set of parameters with the constructed Bayesian network; determining values of a joint probability distribution of the Bayesian network via an automatic procedure; deriving a mean Bayesian network with one or more averaged parameters based at least in part on the joint probability values; and calculating a quantitative prediction based at least in part on the mean Bayesian network.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for determining the selection criteria that in its embodiments can distinguish compounds that successfully meet an objective from those that do not, determine the importance of selection criterion in selecting test compounds that have a high probability of achieving an objective and automatically apply the selection criteria to select test compounds with a high chance of meeting an objective.
Abstract:
A method for partitioning a molecular subset is described. The partitioning method takes into account molecular structure and its manner of storage and transmission, transformations to be applied to the molecular subset and their implementation, and constraints imposed by the implementation of the partitioning method. Using this method, a molecular subset can be stored, transmitted, and processed more efficiently. The resulting efficiency makes it possible to design and run applications which require complex molecular processing, such as rational drug discovery, virtual library design, etc.
