Examining decision-making at the computational level thus provides a crucial link between the architecture of biological decision circuits and the form of empirical choice behavior.
Here, we propose that deviations from optimality arise from biological decision mechanisms that have evolved to maximize choice performance within intrinsic biophysical constraints.
It's not a biological decision," Simone told The Huffington Post at Build Series.
However, it is not clear how inhibition of one or a few genes has profound effect in biological decision-making.
Simple switches and oscillators have been shown to map to the core processes of biological decision-making, implemented by two- or three-gene network motifs and characterized by their behaviour around the systems' fixed points [ 17- 22].
Foremost, it is unclear if these biological and decision-making deficits represent premorbid conditions, the sequelae of chronic cocaine use, or perhaps even polysubstance abuse, as most cocaine-dependent subjects had also abused at least one other drug during their lifetime.
We included terms such as bioterrorism, biological warfare, decision support system, detection, diagnosis, radiology information systems, and public health.
In order to find the substructures most associated with biological activity, decision trees (Rusinko et al., 1999, 2002; van Rhee, 2003; Young and Hawkins, 1995) were used to partition compounds in the Chembridge Diverse Set E library based on the presence or absence of highly discriminating substructures chosen from the set of 4860 substructures.
As an engineered cell line, NK-92 cells may behave more reproducibly than primary NK, but this must be balanced with the objective for biological relevance in decisions on which NK cells to use in assay.
For software to help researchers make appropriate design decisions, biological parts must be described using an unambiguous language, such as SBOL-semantic.
