Solving Non-Uniqueness in Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering Using Multidendrograms

In agglomerative hierarchical clustering, pair-group methods suffer from a problem of non-uniqueness when two or more distances between different clusters coincide during the amalgamation process. The traditional approach for solving this drawback has been to take any arbitrary criterion in order to break ties between distances, which results in different hierarchical classifications depending on the criterion followed. In this article we propose a variable-group algorithm that consists in grouping more than two clusters at the same time when ties occur. We give a tree representation for the results of the algorithm, which we call a multidendrogram, as well as a generalization of the Lance andWilliams’ formula which enables the implementation of the algorithm in a recursive way.

A NEW DESCRIPA NEW DESCRIPTOR OF AMINO ACIDS BASED ON THE THREEDIMENSIONAL VECTOR OF ATOMIC INTERACTION FIELD

QUANTITATIVE STRUCTURE ACTIVITY RELATIONSHIP (QSAR) IS A VERY IMPORTANT TOPIC FOR MANY SCIENTIFIC FIELDS AND CAN BE TERMED AS QUANTITATIVE SEQUENCE ACTIVITY MODELS(QSAM)[1] WHEN REFERRED TO THE RESEARCH ON RELATION- SHIPS BETWEEN STRUCTURES AND ACTIVITIES OF BIOLOGICAL MOLECULES, SUCH AS PROTEINS, AND NUCLEIC ACIDS. HOW- EVER, IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO ESTABLISH A QSAM MODEL,…     

苯在Ru-Zn/Ru（0001）合金表面上的吸附——密度泛函研究

为了理解苯在Ru-Zn合金催化剂上的部分加氢催化机理,采用密度泛函方法对苯在Ru-Zn/Ru（0001）面上的吸附进行理论研究。计算结果表明,当苯的碳原子或者共轭双键直接位于表面Zn原子的atop位时,其吸附热较Ru（0001）面上的类似吸附状态下降约60%.Zn原子与苯环C原子之间的排斥作用导致苯环的成键轨道与表面Ru原子的价层轨道之间的空间对称性下降,从而不利于苯与合金表面的键合。当吸附位离开Zn原子时,邻近Zn原子对于苯的吸附基本没有影响。

The Frontier Movement and The American Values and Beliefs

This paper briefly accounts the background of American values and beliefs. It analyses the essence of the American ideals and points out that the American values are exaggerated and glamorized by the American upper class. They are in a sense, a dose of anaesthetic and a kind of hypocrisy.
