Determining and characterizing immunological self/non-self
The immune system has the ability to discriminate self from non-self proteins and also make appropriate immune responses to pathogens. A fundamental problem is to understand the genomic differences and similarities among the sets of self peptides and non-self peptides. The sequencing of human, …

Mechanistic insights into how collective effects mediate the T cell response
… factors are thought to contribute to this self/non-self discrimination, based on a theoretical paper and experiments, a generalized mechanistic framework has emerged over the past decade to describe the remarkable robustness of self/non-self discrimination in spite of the presence of …

Bio-Inspired Mechanism for Aircraft Assessment Under Upset Conditions
… immune systems paradigm and a hierarchical multi-self strategy, a set of algorithms for aircraft sub-systems failure detection, identification, evaluation and flight envelope estimation has been developed and implemented. Data from a six degrees-of-freedom flight simulator were used to define a …

Studies on Real-Valued Negative Selection Algorithms for Self-Nonself Discrimination
… With the adaptive learning ability and a self-organization and robustness nature, the immunology based AIS algorithms have successfully been applied to solve many engineering problems in recent years, such as computer network security analysis, fault detection, and data mining. The …

A selfless response to an illusory world : a comparative study of Śāntideva and Śaṅkara
… scholars have consistently divided them along self/non-self (ātman/anātman) lines. The key to the comparison is thus the notion of individuated self (jīva) rather than the less personal ātman. Once the full implications of Advaita metaphysics are understood, whereby all consciousness is …

Stochastic regulation of signaling in lymphocytes
… models: genetic toggle switches (GTS) and self/non-self peptide-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) discrimination models. In the GTS model, we introduce dynamical disorder in rate coefficients and study its influences in optimal transition paths, transition rates, and the stationary …

Chiasma: Plural Selves on Ink and Paper
… is reinforced in the destabilization of the self during sex. I'm trying to capture a moment when both bodies opens up to each other. There are two figures depicted, yet the figures are one in the same. I can not possibly paint or express how another woman feels, I can not even paint how or …
