TRENTOOL : an open source toolbox to estimate neural directed interactions with transfer entropy
(2011)
To investigate directed interactions in neural networks we often use Norbert Wiener's famous definition of observational causality. Wiener’s definition states that an improvement of the prediction of the future of a time series X from its own past by the incorporation of information from the past of a second time series Y is seen as an indication of a causal interaction from Y to X. Early implementations of Wiener's principle – such as Granger causality – modelled interacting systems by linear autoregressive processes and the interactions themselves were also assumed to be linear. However, in complex systems – such as the brain – nonlinear behaviour of its parts and nonlinear interactions between them have to be expected. In fact nonlinear power-to-power or phase-to-power interactions between frequencies are reported frequently. To cover all types of non-linear interactions in the brain, and thereby to fully chart the neural networks of interest, it is useful to implement Wiener's principle in a way that is free of a model of the interaction [1]. Indeed, it is possible to reformulate Wiener's principle based on information theoretic quantities to obtain the desired model-freeness. The resulting measure was originally formulated by Schreiber [2] and termed transfer entropy (TE). Shortly after its publication transfer entropy found applications to neurophysiological data. With the introduction of new, data efficient estimators (e.g. [3]) TE has experienced a rapid surge of interest (e.g. [4]). Applications of TE in neuroscience range from recordings in cultured neuronal populations to functional magnetic resonanace imaging (fMRI) signals. Despite widespread interest in TE, no publicly available toolbox exists that guides the user through the difficulties of this powerful technique. TRENTOOL (the TRansfer ENtropy TOOLbox) fills this gap for the neurosciences by bundling data efficient estimation algorithms with the necessary parameter estimation routines and nonparametric statistical testing procedures for comparison to surrogate data or between experimental conditions. TRENTOOL is an open source MATLAB toolbox based on the Fieldtrip data format. ...
Der (...) Beitrag setzt sich strukturell auf drei Ebenen mit Rolf Hochhuths Dramenpoetik auseinander. Erstens wird die gegenläufige Beziehung zwischen ihrem historisch-adäquaten Gestaltungsanspruch und ihrer literarisch-symbolhaften Überformung analysiert. Zweitens wird Hochhuths Verhältnis zu den für ihn poetologisch bedeutsamen Vorgängern Lessing und Schiller untersucht. Drittens geht es um die Frage, welche Konsequenzen sich aus der in den »Guerillas« formulierten Darstellungsabsicht ziehen lassen, der realen Wirklichkeit durch die Projektion einen neuen (literarischen) Wirklichkeit entgegenzutreten.
The focus of the discussion at the conference on September 23, 2004 was on the long-term impact on capital markets and pension systems. The speakers tried to identify the direction and magnitude of potential changes as well as the likelihood of an eventual asset meltdown. The conference's objective was to combine insights from academia with those from the financial community in order to provide a more comprehensive outlook on capital market developments.

Over the past two decades the “one drug – one target – one disease” concept became the prevalent paradigm in drug discovery. The main idea of this approach is the identification of a single protein target whose inhibition leads to a successful treatment of the examined disease. The predominant assumption is that highly selective ligands would avoid unwanted side effects caused by binding to secondary non-therapeutic targets. In recent years the results of post-genomic and network biology showed that proteins rarely act in isolated systems but rather as a part of a highly connected network [1]. In addition this connectivity leads to more robust systems that cannot be interfered by the inhibition of a single target of that network and consequently might not lead to the desired therapeutic effect [2]. Furthermore studies prove that robust systems are rather affected by weak inhibitions of several parts than by a complete inhibition of a single selected element of that system [3]. Therefore there is an increasing interest in developing drugs that take effect on multiple targets simultaneously but is concurrently a great challenge for medicinal chemists. There has to be a sufficient activity on each target as well as an adequate pharmacokinetic profile [4]. Early design strategies tried to link the pharmacophors of known inhibitors, however these methods often lead to high molecular weight and low ligand efficacy. We present a new rational approach based on a retrosynthetic combinatorial analysis procedure [5] on approved ligands of multiple targets. These RECAP fragments are used to design a large combinatorial library containing molecules featuring chemical properties of each ligand class. The molecules are further validated by machine learning models, like random forests and self-organizing maps, regarding their activity on the targets of interest.
Goethe und Schiller als "klassische Autoren" zu bezeichnen, wie im Titel dieses Vortrags geschehen, ist durchaus nicht selbstverständlich. Ebenso wie ihre Reklamation als "Nationalautoren" gehört ihre Einreihung unter die Klassiker der Wirkungsgeschichte ihres Werkes, und zwar speziell der deutschen Rezeption an. In England werden Goethe und Schiller unter die Romantiker gezählt, in Frankreich wird nahezu ausschließlich die mehr als hundert Jahre frühere französische Literatur von Corneille (1606-1684) bis Racine (1639-1699) als "klassisch" bezeichnet. [...] Der Begriff des "Klassischen" schwankt durch diese Rückbindung an die Antike zwischen stiltypologischer und historischer Bedeutung, d.h. zwischen der Bezeichnung mustergültiger und harmonisch proportionierter Literatur einerseits, und dem Bezug auf die griechische und römische Antike andererseits. Darin liegt das Problem jeder nachantiken Klassik, die sich zwar von den antiken Vorbildern lösen will, um selbst mustergültig werden zu können, zugleich aber an den antiken Autoren gemessen wird. Goethe selbst hat in seinem Aufsatz "literarischer Sansculottismus" während der Hochphase der "Weimarer Klassik" (1795) die Ansicht vertreten, in Deutschland seien die Voraussetzungen nicht gegeben, unter denen klassische Autoren entstehen könnten.
[Erhard Schütz skizziert vier Phasen:] 1. Das Doppel von sozialdemokratischer Selbstbildproduktion und bildungsbürgerlicher Einhegungsbeschwörung (ca. 1850–1917) 2. Das Doppel von Hegemonial-Konkurrenz in der Arbeiterbewegung und neusachlicher Funktionalitätsfaszination (ca. 1917–1933) 3. Das Doppel von Produktionsverherrlichung als politischer Systemfeier und industriepopularisierender Sachliteratur (ca. 1933–1961) 4. Das Doppel von industrieweltlichem Sozialrealismus und politischer Systemagitation. (ca. 1961–1987) Arbeiterliteratur im engeren Sinne fundiert sich zunächst entscheidend in einer vom Industrieproletariat ausgehenden, gesellschaftlichen Zukunftsperspektive. Sie ist in diesem strikteren Sinne Teil von Arbeiterkultur. Arbeiterkultur war – zugespitzt – geprägt durch Arbeitsplatz, Familie und Verein. Als solches ist sie natürlich auch Gegenstand von Arbeiterliteratur gewesen. Aber Arbeiterliteratur ist darüber hinaus durch die Arbeiterkultur formbestimmt. Sie ist in diesem Sinne weder ein Ausdruck der sozialen Lage der Arbeiter noch der Reflex eines Klassenbewußtseins. Ihre Spezifik besteht zunächst vielmehr darin, den, wie Klaus-Michael Bogdal es ausdrückt, "Prozeß der Subjektkonstituierung der Arbeiter" zu verstärken und zu sichern, "indem sie einen wirksamen Code der Ich-Rede zur Verfügung stellt". Arbeiter-Schriftsteller bedienten sich mit der Literatur eines Bereichs, der traditionell als besonders intensi-ver und höchster Ausdruck von Subjektivität galt, um darin ein "kollektives Arbeiter-Subjekt" zu imaginieren. Oder anders gesagt: In der historischen Arbeiterliteratur konstituierte sich in Literatur, im Medium emphatischer Subjektivität, ein Schreiben in transindividuell-sozietärer Perspektive. Das prägt vor allem die frühe Phase der Arbeiterliteratur im 19. Jahrhundert.
The multiplicity fluctuations in A+A collisions at SPS and RHIC energies are studied within the HSD transport approach. We find a dominant role of the fluctuations in the nucleon participant number for the final fluctuations. In order to extract physical fluctuations one should decrease the fluctuations in the participants number. This can be done considering very central collisions. The system size dependence of the multiplicity fluctuations in central A+A collisions at the SPS energy range – obtained in the HSD and UrQMD transport models – is presented. The results can be used as a ‘background’ for experimental measurements of fluctuations as a signal of the critical point. Event-by-event fluctuations of the K/p , K/p and p/p ratios in A+A collisions are also studied. Event-by-event fluctuations of the kaon to pion number ratio in nucleus-nucleus collisions are studied for SPS and RHIC energies. We find that the HSD model can qualitatively reproduce the measured excitation function for the K/p ratio fluctuations in central Au+Au (or Pb+Pb) collisions from low SPS up to top RHIC energies. The forward-backward correlation coefficient measured by the STAR Collaboration in Au+Au collisions at RHIC is also studied. We discuss the effects of initial collision geometry and centrality bin definition on correlations in nucleus-nucleus collisions. We argue that a study of the dependence of correlations on the centrality bin definition as well as the bin size may distinguish between these ‘trivial’ correlations and correlations arising from ‘new physics’. 5th International Workshop on Critical Point and Onset of Deconfinement - CPOD 2009, June 08 - 12 2009 Brookhaven National Laboratory, Long Island, New York, USA
Using faculty-librarian partnerships to ensure that students become information fluent in the 21st century In the 21st century educators in partnership with librarians must prepare students effectively for productive use of information especially in higher education. Students will need to graduate from universities with appropriate information and technology skills to enable them to become productive citizens in the workplace and in society. Technology is having a major impact on society; in economics e-business is moving to the forefront; in communication e-mail, the Internet and cellular telephones have reformed how people communicate; in the work environment computers and web utilizations are emphasized and in education virtual learning and teaching are becoming more important. These few examples indicate how the 21st century information environment requires future members of the workforce to be information fluent so they will have the ability to locate information efficiently, evaluate information for specific needs, organize information to address issues, apply information skillfully to solve problems, use information to communicate effectively, and use information responsibly to ensure a productive work environment. Individuals can achieve information fluency by acquiring cultural, visual, computer, technology, research and information management skills to enable them to think critically.
Teaching information literacy: substance and process This presentation explores the concept of information literacy within the broader context of higher education. It argues that, certain assertions in the library literature notwithstanding, the concepts associated with information literacy are not new, but rather very closely resemble the qualities traditionally considered to characterize a well-educated person. The presentation also considers the extent to which the higher education system does indeed foster the attributes commonly associated with information literacy. The term information literacy has achieved the immediacy it currently enjoys within the library community with the advent of the so-called "information age" The information age is commonly touted in the literature, both popular and professional, as constituting nothing short of a revolution. Academic librarians and other educators have of course felt called upon to make their teaching reflect both the growing proliferation of information formats and the major transformations affecting the process of information seeking. Faced with so much novelty and uncertainty, it is no surprise that many have felt that these changes call for a revolution in teaching. It is within this context that the concept of information literacy has flourished. It is argued in this presentation, however, that by treating information literacy as an essentially new specialty that owes much of its importance to the plethora of electronic information, we risk obscuring some of the most fundamental and enduring educational values we should be imparting to our students. Much of the literature on information literacy assumes - rather than argues - that recent changes in the way we approach education are indications of progress. Indeed, much of the self-narrative that institutions produce (in bulletins, mission statements, web sites, etc.) endorses an approach to education that will result in lifelong learners who are critical consumers of information. After critically examining the degree to which such statements of educational approach reflect reality, this presentation concludes by considering the effects of certain changes in the culture of higher education. It considers particularly the transformation - at least in North America - of the traditional model of higher education as a public good to a market-driven business model. It poses the question of whether a change of this significance might in fact detract from, rather than promote, the development of information literate students.
