Loss formulations for assumption-free neural inference of SDE coefficient functions by Marc Vaisband, Valentin von Bornhaupt, Nina Schmid, Izdar Abulizi, Jan Hasenauer

“…Abstract Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) are one of the most commonly studied probabilistic dynamical systems, and widely used to model complex biological processes. Building upon the previously introduced idea of performing inference of dynamical systems by parametrising their coefficient functions via neural networks, we propose a novel formulation for an optimisation objective that combines simulation-based penalties with pseudo-likelihoods. …”

Prediction of Functionally Important Phospho-Regulatory Events in Xenopus laevis Oocytes. by Jeffrey R Johnson, Silvia D Santos, Tasha Johnson, Ursula Pieper, Marta Strumillo, Omar Wagih, Andrej Sali, Nevan J Krogan, Pedro Beltrao

“…The degree of conservation of kinase-protein interactions was found to be predictive of functionally relevant regulatory interactions. Finally, using comparative protein structure models, we find that phosphosites within structured domains tend to be located at positions with high conformational flexibility. …”

Encounter Risk Analysis of Rainfall and Tide in Shenzhen Based on Copula Function by SHI Yunyun, YAO Hangbin, WAN Donghui, ZHENG Xinqian

“…The disasters of encounter of extreme rainstorm and high tide level will aggravate the flood in coastal cities.In order to explore the impact of the encounter of rainstorm and tide on flood control and drainage in coastal cities,based on the annual maximum 1 day rainfall and its corresponding tide level data of Chiwan Station in Shenzhen from 1967 to 2018,the Copula function is used to construct a joint distribution model of annual maximum 1 day rainfall and its corresponding tide level,and the co-occurrence risk,the flood control risk,the condition risk and the combination risk of rain and tide in Shenzhen are calculated and analyzed.The results show that the risk of the encounter of rain and tide in Shenzhen is small,and the co-occurrence and combination risk probability of rainfall whose return period greater than 100 years and tidal level whose return period greater than 200 years are only 0.12% and 0.09%.The probability of the occurrence of rainfall or tide exceeding the standard magnitude is 1.09%,and its return period is less than 100 years.When the rainfall exceeds the standard magnitude,the probability of encountering an over-standard tide level is greater,with a probability of 12.33%.At the same time,with the increase of rainfall,the risk will also increase.Therefore,in the planning and design of flood and tide prevention and drainage in cities,the focus should be on attention and prevention.…”

Calculating response functions of coupled oscillators using quantum phase estimation by Sven Danz, Mario Berta, Stefan Schröder, Pascal Kienast, Frank K. Wilhelm, Alessandro Ciani

“…Our proposed quantum algorithm operates in the standard s-sparse, oracle-based query access model. For a network of N oscillators with maximum norm ∥H∥_{max}, and when the eigenvalue tolerance ɛ is much smaller than the minimum eigenvalue gap, we use O(log(Ns∥H∥_{max}/ɛ) algorithmic qubits and obtain a rigorous worst-case query complexity upper bound O(s∥H∥_{max}/(δ^{2}ɛ)) up to logarithmic factors, where δ denotes the desired precision on the coefficients appearing in the response functions. …”
