The analysis of indexed astronomical time series – XI. The statistics of oversampled white noise periodograms
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
The distribution of the maxima of periodograms is considered in the case where the time
series is made up of regularly sampled, uncorrelated Gaussians. It is pointed out that if there
is no oversampling, then for large ...
A uniquely African focus: bioinformatics is a field that has grown exponentially in the past few years, and it is becoming increasingly important to collaborate as the field continues to gather momentum
(2015)
Bioinformatics is a field that has grown exponentially in the past few years, and it is becoming increasingly important to collaborate as the field continues to gather momentum.
Multicolour time series photometry of four short-period weak-lined T Tauri stars
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
The paper describes continuous photometric monitoring of four pre-main-sequence stars,
probable members of young stellar associations. Measurements, covering at least four nights
per star, were obtained by cycling through ...
A detection threshold in the amplitude spectra calculated from Kepler data obtained during K2 mission.
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
We present our analysis of simulated data in order to derive a detection threshold which can
be used in the pre-whitening process of amplitude spectra. In case of ground-based data of
pulsating stars, this threshold is ...
Local ownership, exercise of ownership and moving from passive to active entitlement: a practice-led inquiry on a rural community network
(CCIRDT, 2015)
In this paper, we aim to shed light on local ownership from a double practical and
theoretical perspective, and examine its meaning as well as the factors that are bound to
influence its development in community based ...
Potential beneficial effects of Tulbaghia violacea William Henry Harvey (Alliaceae) on cardiovascular system - A review
(Pharmacotherapy Group, University of Benin, 2015)
Tulbaghia violacea William Henry Harvey (Harv. Alliaceae) is a small bulbous herb belonging to the
family Alliaceae. It is used in South Africa to treat fever, colds, asthma, paralysis, and hypertension.
Meanwhile, ...
Multicolour time series photometry of the T Tauri star CVSO 30
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
Five consecutive runs of at least five hours, and two shorter runs, of V(RI)C time series
photometry of CVSO 30 are presented. No evidence could be seen for planetary transits,
previously claimed in the literature for ...
The analysis of indexed astronomical time series – XII. The statistics of oversampled Fourier spectra of noise plus a single sinusoid
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
With few exceptions, theoretical studies of periodogram properties focus on pure noise time
series. This paper considers the case in which the time series consists of noise together with a
single sinusoid, observed at ...
Inferring bona fide transfrags in RNA-Seq derived-transcriptome assemblies of non-model organisms
(BioMed Central, 2015)
Background: De novo transcriptome assembly of short transcribed fragments (transfrags) produced from sequencing-by-synthesis technologies often results in redundant datasets with differing levels of unassembled, partially ...
Self-similarity of human protein interaction networks: a novel strategy of distinguishing proteins
(2015)
The successful determination of reliable protein interaction networks (PINs) in several species in the
post-genomic era has hitherto facilitated the quest to understanding systems and structural properties of
such networks. ...
