Modeling of Tumor Growth Based on Adomian Decomposition Method
Modeling of a growing tumor over time is extremely difficult. This is due to the complex biological phenomena underlying cancer growth. Existing models mostly based on numerical methods and could desc...

An Extended Directed Graph of DNA Sequences
In this paper we extend the 2-D directed graphical representation for DNA sequences. The main purpose is to making a directed graph corresponding to a DNA sequence which hasn't any complete coincidenc...

Geneticrecombination following a genetic transfer event can produce heterogeneous phylogenetichistories within sets of genes that share a common ancestralorigin. Delineating recombination events will enhance our understanding in genomeevolution. However, the task of detecting recombination is not trivialdue to effect of more-recent evolutionary changes that can obscuresuch event from detection. In this paper, we demonstrate theuse of a two-phase strategy for detecting recombination events ona large-scale dataset. ©2008 American Institute of Physics
