Transparency Of Execution Using Epigenetic Networks (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Dethlefs, N., & Turner, A. (2017, September). Transparency Of Execution Using Epigenetic Networks. Presented at 14th European Conference on Artificial Life, ECAL 2017, Lyon, France

This paper describes how the recurrent connectionist architecture epiNet, which is capable of dynamically modifying its topology, is able to provide a form of transparent execution. EpiNet, which is inspired by eukaryotic gene regulation in nature, i... Read More about Transparency Of Execution Using Epigenetic Networks.

Galactic chemical evolution (2017)
Book Chapter
Mollá, M., Cavichia, O., Costa, R. D. D. D., Gibson, B. K., & Díaz, Á. I. (in press). Galactic chemical evolution. In Highlights of Spanish astrophysics IX. Sociedad Española de Astronomía

We analyze the evolution of oxygen abundance radial gradients resulting from our chemical evolution models calculated with different prescriptions for the star formation rate (SFR) and for the gas infall rate, in order to assess their respective role... Read More about Galactic chemical evolution.

In the local Universe, the growth of massive galaxy clusters mainly operates through the continuous accretion of group-scale systems. The infalling group in Abell 2142 is the poster child of such an accreting group, and as such, it is an ideal target...

Density functional theory with Grimme's empirical correction, DFT-D3, has been used to examine the adsorption of a carbon dioxide molecule by different sets of zeolitic imidazolate framework materials (ZIF-1 to -4, -6 to -10, and -zni). We have calcu... Read More about Theoretical study of the CO2 adsorption by Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks (ZIFs).

Student difficulties regarding symbolic and graphical representations of vector fields (2017)
Journal Article
Bollen, L., van Kampen, P., Baily, C., Kelly, M., & De Cock, M. (2017). Student difficulties regarding symbolic and graphical representations of vector fields. Physical Review Physics Education Research, 13(2), Article 020109. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevPhysEducRes.13.020109

The ability to switch between various representations is an invaluable problem-solving skill in physics. In addition, research has shown that using multiple representations can greatly enhance a person’s understanding of mathematical and physical con...
