?-SEIHRD mathematical model of Covid19-stability analysis using fast-slow decomposition

ABSTRACT: In general, a mathematical model that contains many linear/nonlinear differential equations, describing a phenomenon, does not have an explicit hierarchy of system variables. That is, the identification of the fast variables and the slow variables of the system is not explicitly clear. The decomposition of a system into fast and slow subsystems is usually based on intuitive ideas and knowledge of the mathematical model being investigated. In this study, we apply the singular perturbed vector field (SPVF) method to the COVID-19 mathematical model of to expose the hierarchy of the model. This decomposition enables us to rewrite the model in new coordinates in the form of fast and slow subsystems and, hence, to investigate only the fast subsystem with different asymptotic methods. In addition, this decomposition enables us to investigate the stability analysis of the model, which is important in case of COVID-19. We found the stable equilibrium points of the mathematical model and compared the results of the model with those reported by the Chinese authorities and found a fit of approximately 96 percent.

Comparison of slow and fast neocortical neuron migration using a new in vitro model.

Project description:BackgroundMutations, toxic insults and radiation exposure are known to slow or arrest the migration of cortical neurons, in most cases by unknown mechanisms. The movement of migrating neurons is saltatory, reflecting the intermittent movement of the nucleus (nucleokinesis) within the confines of the plasma membrane. Each nucleokinetic movement is analogous to a step. Thus, average migration speed could be reduced by lowering step frequency and/or step distance.ResultsTo assess the kinetic features of cortical neuron migration we developed a cell culture system that supports fiber-guided migration. In this system, the majority of fiber-apposed cells were neurons, expressed age-appropriate cortical-layer specific markers and migrated during a 30 min imaging period. Comparison of the slowest and fastest quartiles of cells revealed a 5-fold difference in average speed. The major determinant of average speed in slower cells (6-26 microm/hr) was step frequency, while step distance was the critical determinant of average speed in faster cells (>26 microm/hr). Surprisingly, step distance was largely determined by the average duration of the step, rather than the speed of nucleokinesis during the step, which differed by only 1.3-fold between the slowest and fastest quartiles.ConclusionSaltatory event frequency and duration, not nucleokinetic speed, are the major determinants of average migration speed in healthy neurons. Alteration of either saltatory event frequency or duration should be considered along with nucleokinetic abnormalities as possible contributors to pathological conditions.

Fast modal decomposition for optical fibers using digital holography.

Project description:Eigenmode decomposition of the light field at the output end of optical fibers can provide fundamental insights into the nature of electromagnetic-wave propagation through the fibers. Here we present a fast and complete modal decomposition technique for step-index optical fibers. The proposed technique employs digital holography to measure the light field at the output end of the multimode optical fiber, and utilizes the modal orthonormal property of the basis modes to calculate the modal coefficients of each mode. Optical experiments were carried out to demonstrate the proposed decomposition technique, showing that this approach is fast, accurate and cost-effective.

Using slow frame rate imaging to extract fast receptive fields.

Project description:In functional imaging, large numbers of neurons are measured during sensory stimulation or behavior. This data can be used to map receptive fields that describe neural associations with stimuli or with behavior. The temporal resolution of these receptive fields has traditionally been limited by image acquisition rates. However, even when acquisitions scan slowly across a population of neurons, individual neurons may be measured at precisely known times. Here, we apply a method that leverages the timing of neural measurements to find receptive fields with temporal resolutions higher than the image acquisition rate. We use this temporal super-resolution method to resolve fast voltage and glutamate responses in visual neurons in Drosophila and to extract calcium receptive fields from cortical neurons in mammals. We provide code to easily apply this method to existing datasets. This method requires no specialized hardware and can be used with any optical indicator of neural activity.

Variance decomposition using an IRT measurement model.

Project description:Large scale research projects in behaviour genetics and genetic epidemiology are often based on questionnaire or interview data. Typically, a number of items is presented to a number of subjects, the subjects' sum scores on the items are computed, and the variance of sum scores is decomposed into a number of variance components. This paper discusses several disadvantages of the approach of analysing sum scores, such as the attenuation of correlations amongst sum scores due to their unreliability. It is shown that the framework of Item Response Theory (IRT) offers a solution to most of these problems. We argue that an IRT approach in combination with Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) estimation provides a flexible and efficient framework for modelling behavioural phenotypes. Next, we use data simulation to illustrate the potentially huge bias in estimating variance components on the basis of sum scores. We then apply the IRT approach with an analysis of attention problems in young adult twins where the variance decomposition model is extended with an IRT measurement model. We show that when estimating an IRT measurement model and a variance decomposition model simultaneously, the estimate for the heritability of attention problems increases from 40% (based on sum scores) to 73%.

Multiple scales analysis of slow-fast quasi-linear systems.

Project description:This article illustrates the application of multiple scales analysis to two archetypal quasi-linear systems; i.e. to systems involving fast dynamical modes, called fluctuations, that are not directly influenced by fluctuation-fluctuation nonlinearities but nevertheless are strongly coupled to a slow variable whose evolution may be fully nonlinear. In the first case, fast waves drive a slow, spatially inhomogeneous evolution of their celerity field. Multiple scales analysis confirms that, although the energy E, the angular frequency ω and the modal structure of the waves evolve, the wave action E/ω is conserved in the absence of forcing and dissipation. In the second system, the fast modes undergo an instability that is saturated through a feedback on the slow variable. A new multi-scale analysis is developed to treat this case. The key technical point, confirmed by the analysis, is that the fluctuation energy and mode structure evolve slowly to ensure that the slow field remains in a state of near marginal stability. These two model systems appear to be generic, being representative of many if not all quasi-linear systems. In each case, numerical simulations of both the full and reduced dynamical systems are performed to highlight the accuracy and efficiency of the multiple scales approach. Python codes are provided as electronic supplementary material.

Demography: Fast and Slow.

Project description:Scientific ideas on the human population tend to be rooted in a "slow demography" paradigm, which emphasizes an inertial, predictable, self-contained view of population dynamics, mostly dependent on fertility and mortality. Yet, demography can also move fast. At the country level, it is crucial to empirically assess how fast demography moves by taking migratory movements into account, in addition to fertility and mortality. We discuss these ideas and present new estimates of the speed of population change, that is, country-level population turnover rates, as well as the share of turnover due to migration, for all countries in the world with available data between 1990 and 2020. Population turnover is inversely related to population size and development, and migratory movements tend to become important factors in shaping demography for both small and highly developed countries. Longitudinally, we analyze annual turnover data for Italy and Germany, documenting the changing speed of population change over time and its determinants. Accepting the "fast and slow" demography perspective has several implications for science and policy, which we discuss.

Slow-fast analysis of a multi-group asset flow model with implications for the dynamics of wealth.

Project description:The multi-group asset flow model is a nonlinear dynamical system originally developed as a tool for understanding the behavioral foundations of market phenomena such as flash crashes and price bubbles. In this paper we use a modification of this model to analyze the dynamics of a single-asset market in situations when the trading rates of investors (i.e., their desire to exchange stock for cash) are prescribed ahead of time and independent of the state of the market. Under the assumption of fast trading compared to the time-rate of change in the prescribed trading rates we decompose the dynamics of the system to fast and slow components. We use the model to derive a variety of observations regarding the dynamics of price and investors' wealth, and the dependence of these quantities on the prescribed trading rates. In particular, we show that strategies with constant trading rates, which represent the well-known constant-rebalanced portfolio (CRP) strategies, are optimal in the sense that they minimize investment risks. In contrast, we show that investors pursuing non-CRP strategies are at risk of loss of wealth, as a result of the slow system not being integrable in the sense that cyclic trading rates do not always result in periodic price variations.

Gene expression profiling of Fast vs. Slow Chinese Hamster Ovary cell lines using Wye3aHamster array

Project description:A 3rd generation Wye3aHamster microarray chip was used to carry out a differential expression microarray study of a panel of 30 slow- and fast-growing production cell lines, identifying a priority list of 240 transcripts (110 Up; 130 Down) that passed a statisical filter (ANOVA p-value <0.05, 1.3 fold-change) when the samples were grouped into fast versus slow and pairwise compared and a minimum Pearson Correlation Coefficent (PCC) of >0.7 when growth rate was used as a continuous variable (i.e. included genes have to satisfy BOTH criteria, not just one). This yielded a list of 240 genes. The 240-member genelist yielded 223 Annotated IDs, 203 of which are Unique and all of which are associated with contributing to a high rate of growth in production CHO cell lines.

Increasing temperatures reduce invertebrate abundance and slow decomposition.

Project description:Decomposition is an essential ecosystem service driven by interacting biotic and abiotic factors. Increasing temperatures due to climate change can affect soil moisture, soil fauna, and subsequently, decomposition. Understanding how projected climate change scenarios will affect decomposition is of vital importance for predicting nutrient cycling and ecosystem health. In this study, we experimentally addressed the question of how the early stages of decomposition would vary along a gradient of projected climate change scenarios. Given the importance of biodiversity for ecosystem service provisioning, we measured the effect of invertebrate exclusion on red maple (Acer rubrum) leaf litter breakdown along a temperature gradient using litterbags in warming chambers over a period of five weeks. Leaf litter decomposed more slowly in the warmer chambers and in the litterbag treatment that minimized invertebrate access. Moreover, increasing air temperature reduced invertebrate abundance and richness, and altered the community composition, independent of exclusion treatment. Using structural equation models, we were able to disentangle the effects of average air temperature on leaf litter loss, finding a direct negative effect of warming on the early stages of decomposition, independent of invertebrate abundance. This result indicates that not only can climate change affect the invertebrate community, but may also directly influence how the remaining organisms interact with their environment and their effectiveness at provisioning ecosystem services. Overall, our study highlights the role of biodiversity in maintaining ecosystem services and contributes to our understanding of how climate change could disrupt nutrient cycling.
