TL;DR: This paper addresses the inconsistency of the EKF-based SLAM algorithm that stems from non-observability of the origin and orientation of the global reference frame and proves on the non-linear two-dimensional problem with point landmarks that this type of inconsistency is remedied using the Invariant EKf.
Abstract: In this paper we address the inconsistency of the EKF-based SLAM algorithm that stems from non-observability of the origin and orientation of the global reference frame. We prove on the non-linear two-dimensional problem with point landmarks observed that this type of inconsistency is remedied using the Invariant EKF, a recently introduced variant ot the EKF meant to account for the symmetries of the state space. Extensive Monte-Carlo runs illustrate the theoretical results.

TL;DR: It is established that MRE11A, RAD50, and NBN are intermediate-risk breast cancer susceptibility genes, and like ATM and CHEK2, their spectrum of pathogenic variants includes a relatively high proportion of missense substitutions.
Abstract: The MRE11A-RAD50-Nibrin (MRN) complex plays several critical roles related to repair of DNA double-strand breaks. Inherited mutations in the three components predispose to genetic instability disorders and the MRN genes have been implicated in breast cancer susceptibility, but the underlying data are not entirely convincing. Here, we address two related questions: (1) are some rare MRN variants intermediate-risk breast cancer susceptibility alleles, and if so (2) do the MRN genes follow a BRCA1/BRCA2 pattern wherein most susceptibility alleles are protein-truncating variants, or do they follow an ATM/CHEK2 pattern wherein half or more of the susceptibility alleles are missense substitutions? Using high-resolution melt curve analysis followed by Sanger sequencing, we mutation screened the coding exons and proximal splice junction regions of the MRN genes in 1,313 early-onset breast cancer cases and 1,123 population controls. Rare variants in the three genes were pooled using bioinformatics methods similar to those previously applied to ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2, and CHEK2, and then assessed by logistic regression. Re-analysis of our ATM, BRCA1, and BRCA2 mutation screening data revealed that these genes do not harbor pathogenic alleles (other than modest-risk SNPs) with minor allele frequencies >0.1% in Caucasian Americans, African Americans, or East Asians. Limiting our MRN analyses to variants with allele frequencies of <0.1% and combining protein-truncating variants, likely spliceogenic variants, and key functional domain rare missense substitutions, we found significant evidence that the MRN genes are indeed intermediate-risk breast cancer susceptibility genes (odds ratio (OR) = 2.88, P = 0.0090). Key domain missense substitutions were more frequent than the truncating variants (24 versus 12 observations) and conferred a slightly higher OR (3.07 versus 2.61) with a lower P value (0.029 versus 0.14). These data establish that MRE11A, RAD50, and NBN are intermediate-risk breast cancer susceptibility genes. Like ATM and CHEK2, their spectrum of pathogenic variants includes a relatively high proportion of missense substitutions. However, the data neither establish whether variants in each of the three genes are best evaluated under the same analysis model nor achieve clinically actionable classification of individual variants observed in this study.

TL;DR: An algorithm for modeling biological networks in a discrete framework with continuous time based on continuous time Markov process applied on a Boolean state space, which allows to describe kinetic phenomena which were difficult to handle in the original models.
Abstract: Mathematical modeling is used as a Systems Biology tool to answer biological questions, and more precisely, to validate a network that describes biological observations and predict the effect of perturbations. This article presents an algorithm for modeling biological networks in a discrete framework with continuous time.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed an approach that complements life cycle assessment with a sensitivity study to account for the variability in real occupancy scenarios, but does not require monitoring results so that it can be performed during the design phase.

TL;DR: This paper presents a survey on the multi-trip vehicle routing problem (MTVRP) and on related routing problems where vehicles are allowed to perform multiple trips and gives an unified view on mathematical formulations and surveys exact and heuristic approaches.
Abstract: This paper presents a survey on the Multi-Trip Vehicle Routing Problem (MTVRP) and on related routing problems where vehicles are allowed to perform multiple trips. The first part of the paper focuses on the MTVRP. It gives an unified view on mathematical formulations and surveys exact and heuristic approaches. The paper continues with variants of the MTVRP and other families of routing problems where multiple trips are sometimes allowed. For the latter, it specially insists on the motivations for having multiple trips and the algorithmic consequences. The expected contribution of the survey is to give a comprehensive overview on a structural property of routing problems that has seen a strongly growing interest in the last few years and that has been investigated in very difierent areas of the routing literature.
