Suitability of shallow (one-hidden-layer) networks with translation-invariant kernel units for function approximation and classification tasks is investigated. It is shown that a critical property influencing the capabilities of kernel networks is how the Fourier transforms of kernels converge to zero. The Fourier transforms of kernels suitable for multivariable approximation can have negative values but must be almost everywhere nonzero.

Seven test data sets were analyzed: linear coupling of autoregressive models, a unidirectional connection of two Hénon systems, a unidirectional connection of chaotic systems of Rössler and Lorenz type and of two different Rössler systems, an example of bidirectionally connected two-species systems, a fishery model as an example of two correlated observables without a causal relationship, and an example of mediated causality. We tested not only 20000 points long clean time series but also noisy and short variants of the data.

Both continuous and discrete-time systems are considered. Two methods of detection are assessed-the method based on conditional mutual information-the CMI method (also known as the transfer entropy method) and the method of convergent cross mapping-the CCM method.

Identification of proteins resembling the tumor biology can improve the diagnosis, prediction, treatment selection, and targeting of therapy. Since the beginning of the post-genomic era, the focus of molecular biology gradually moved from genomes to proteins and proteomes and to their functionality.
