Building a map of restriction sites from double-digest gel data can be a complex and frustrating task, especially when many DNA fragments are detected or when the gel results are ambiguous. 'Double Digester' is an interactive, graphical computer program which helps researchers understand and resolve such data. It explicitly represents the experimental data, the associated uncertainties, the researcher's hypotheses and possible map interpretations. Alternative solutions are frequently possible, and the differences between them may help determine which additional experiments might resolve ambiguities. Initial use has confirmed the benefits of this approach, and has suggested ways in which it can be refined and extended. Double Digester meets the need for a practical tool to help build restriction maps, and also illustrates how a computer-based tool can confront experimental uncertainty in an integrated fashion.

In practical supply chain operations, efficient order allocation significantly enhances the overall efficiency of the supply chain. Real production environments are plagued by numerous uncertainties, such as unpredictable customer orders, which greatly amplify the complexity of solving practical allocation problems. This study focuses on the problem of allocating orders to parallel machines with varying efficiencies under uncertain and high-dimensional conditions.

Agriculture is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions, highlighting the urgent need for effective carbon reduction strategies. This study presents an innovative integrated model that employs Fermatean Neutrosophic Set in conjunction with the Weighted Influence Nonlinear Gauge System and the Analytic Hierarchy Process combined with the Entropy Weight Method to assess key factors influencing agricultural carbon reduction. Our study delineates the hierarchical importance of factors influencing carbon emissions, with carbon emission reduction policy (τ4) emerging as the paramount factor, attributed a value of 0.

In this work, we develop a novel Bayesian approach to study the adsorption and desorption of CO onto a Pd(111) surface, a process of great importance in natural sciences. The motivation for this work comes from the recent availability of time-resolved infrared spectroscopy data and the need for model interpretability and uncertainty quantification in chemical processes. The objective is to learn the relevant parameters that characterize the process: coverage with time, rate constants, activation energies, and pre-exponential factors.

Dual-impulse behaviors of rolling bearings have been widely researched for quantitative diagnosis. However, it is challenging to accurately extract entry and exit moments of the fault from noise-contaminated raw signals. To address this issue, a novel quantitative diagnosis method based on digital twin model is proposed to assess the fault severity from the original signal waveform.
