Based on the Hurst exponent as an index of health of the heart we show how the state of the nervous system may tune it in health and disease.

In-vitro microtubule motility assays, in which motors attached to a surface move microtubules along it, have been used traditionally to study motor function. However, the way in which microtubule-microtubule interactions affect microtubule movement remains largely unexplored. To address this question, time-lapse image series of in-vitro microtubule motility assays were obtained using total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy. Categorized as a general problem of multiple object tracking (MOT), particular challenges arising in this project include low feature diversity, dynamic instability, sudden changes in microtubules motility patterns, as well as their instantaneous appearance/disappearance. This work describes a new application of piecewise-stationary multiple motion model Kalman smoother (PMMS) for modeling individual microtubules motility trends. To both evaluate the capability of this procedure and optimize its hyper-parameters, a large dataset simulating the series of time-lapse images was used first. Next, we applied it to the sequence of frames from the real data. Results of our analyses provide a quantitative description of microtubule velocity which, in turn, enumerates the occurrence of microtubule-microtubule interactions per frame.","PeriodicalId":119149,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Quantitative Methods","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122727629","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sparked by the analysis of resting-state fMRI data, there has recently been a resurgence of interest in the validity of some of the p-values evaluated with the widely used software SPM. The default parametric p-values reported in SPM are based on the application of results from random field theory to statistical parametric maps, a framework we refer to as RFP. While RFP was established almost two decades ago and has since been applied in a plethora of fMRI studies, there does not exist a unified documentation of the mathematical and computational underpinnings of RFP as implemented in current versions of SPM. Here, we provide such a documentation with the aim of contributing to contemporary efforts towards higher levels of computational transparency in functional neuroimaging.","PeriodicalId":119149,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Quantitative Methods","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129886411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An important practical problem is identifying the precise mechanism by which the breakdown of immune tolerance as a result of immune response to infection leads to autoimmunity. In this paper, we develop a mathematical model of immune response to a viral infection, which includes T cells with different activation thresholds, regulatory T cells (Tregs), and a cytokine mediating immune dynamics. Particular emphasis is made on the role of time delays associated with the processes of infection and mounting the immune response. Stability analysis of various steady states of the model allows us to identify parameter regions associated with different types of immune behaviour, such as, normal clearance of infection, chronic infection, and autoimmune dynamics. Numerical simulations are used to illustrate different dynamical regimes, and to identify basins of attraction of different dynamical states. An important result of the analysis is that not only the parameters of the system, but also the initial level of infection and the initial state of the immune system determine the progress and outcome of the dynamics.","PeriodicalId":119149,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Quantitative Methods","volume":"267 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115683714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The simulation was conducted by means of the discretization in curvilinear coordinates of the geometry of Igap'o I Lake, together with finite difference and finite element methods. The evaluation of the proposed numerical model for water quality was performed by comparing the experimental values of BOD5 with the numerical results. The evaluation of the model showed quantitative results compatible with the actual behavior of Igap'o I Lake in relation to the simulated parameter. The qualitative analysis of the numerical simulations provided a better understanding of the dynamics of the BOD5 concentration at Igap'o I Lake, showing that such concentrations in the central regions of the lake have values above those allowed by Brazilian law. The results can help to guide choices by public officials, as: (i) improve the identification mechanisms of pollutant emitters on Lake Igap'o I, (ii) contribute to the optimal treatment of the recovery of the polluted environment and (iii) provide a better quality of life for the regulars of the lake as well as for the residents living on the lakeside.","PeriodicalId":119149,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Quantitative Methods","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125200242","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The growth processes are controlled by diffusible proteins, so-called morphogens. Many different patterning mechanisms have been proposed. The stereotypic branching program during lung development can be recapitulated by a receptor-ligand based Turing model. Our group has previously used the Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) framework for solving the receptor-ligand Turing model on growing lung domains. However, complex mesh deformations which occur during lung growth severely limit the number of branch generations that can be simulated. A new Phase-Field implementation avoids mesh deformations by considering the surface of the modelling domains as interfaces between phases, and by coupling the reaction-diffusion framework to these surfaces. In this paper, we present a rigorous comparison between the Phase-Field approach and the ALE-based simulation.","PeriodicalId":119149,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Quantitative Methods","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115202330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One example is the pulsing soft coral (Heteroxenia fuscescens). Pulsing corals live in colonies, where each polyp actively pulses through contraction and relaxation of their tentacles. The pulses are typically out of phase and without a clear pattern. These corals live in lagoons and bays found in the Red Sea and Indian Ocean where they at times experience strong ambient flows. In this paper, $3D$ fluid-structure interaction simulations are used to quantify the effects of ambient flow on the exchange currents produced by the active contraction of pulsing corals. We find a complex interaction between the flows produced by the coral and the background flow. The dynamics can either enhance or reduce the upward jet generated in a quiescent medium. The pulsing behavior also slows the average horizontal flow near the polyp when there is a strong background flow. The dynamics of these flows have implications for particle capture and nutrient exchange.","PeriodicalId":119149,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Quantitative Methods","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117066867","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
