In mathematics and, in particular, functional analysis, convolution is a mathematical operation on two functions f and g, producing a third function that is typically viewed as a modified version of one of the original functions, giving the area overlap between the two functions as a function of the amount that one of the original functions is translated.

Hexameters also have a primary caesura — a break in sense, much like the function of a comma in prose — at one of several normal positions: After the first syllable in the third foot ( the " masculine " caesura ); after the second syllable in the third foot if the third foot is a dactyl ( the " feminine " caesura ); after the first syllable of the fourth foot ; or after the first syllable of the second foot ( the latter two often occur together in a line, breaking it into three separate units ).

“ This doctrine is rooted in Aristotle's conception of the soul, and has antecedents in Hobbes's conception of the mind as a ‘ calculating machine ’, but it has become fully articulated ( and popularly endorsed ) only in the last third of the 20th century .” In so far as it mediates stimulus and response, a mental function is analogous to a program that processes input / output in automata theory.

We can use the three-dimensional theory to solve this problem if we regard u as a function in three dimensions that is independent of the third dimension.

The primary reason for this reluctance to upgrade is that many XMMS plugins ( written by third parties ) are dependent on the older version of GTK + to properly function ( e. g. about boxes and configuration dialogs ).

Given this relationship of public capital and productivity, public capital becomes a third input in the standard, neoclassical production function:

Others argue that NGOs are often imperialist in nature, that they sometimes operate in a racialized manner in third world countries, and that they fulfill a similar function to that of the clergy during the high colonial era.

The third fire had the function of protecting the offerers from attacks of evil spirits and was placed to the South, considered a dangerous direction.

Asymmetric information creates incentives for the party with more information to cheat the party with less information ; as a result, a number of market structures have developed, including warranties and third party authentication, which enable markets with asymmetric information to function.

If a risk averse consumer has a utility function over consumption x, and if is differentiable, then the consumer is not prudent unless the third derivative of utility is positive, that is,.

Included in a number of the structural features that can be recognized in all protein tyrosine kinases are an ATP binding site, three residues that are thought to be associated with the function of the third phosphate group ( often called the gamma-phosphate group ) of an ATP molecule bound to the enzyme, and a possible catalytic site of the enzyme that is an amino acid.

The third important theory of hippocampal function relates the hippocampus to space.

Carl Friedrich Gauss introduced the square bracket notation for the floor function in his third proof of quadratic reciprocity ( 1808 ).

Dolly was born on 5 July 1996 to three mothers ( one provided the egg, another the DNA and a third carried the cloned embryo to term ).

**** Osteolaemus tetraspis, dwarf crocodile ( There has been controversy whether or not this is actually two species ; recent ( 2010 ) DNA analysis indicate three distinct species: O. tetraspis, O. osborni, and a third currently unnamed.

Jeffreys has opposed the current use of DNA profiling, where the government has access to that database, and has instead proposed a database of all people's DNA, whose access would be controlled by an independent third party.

DNA vaccines are third generation vaccines, and are made up of a small, circular piece of bacterial DNA ( called a plasmid ) that has been genetically engineered to produce one or two specific proteins ( antigens ) from a pathogen.

In August 2007, a study by ITV television show Undercover Mothers found that a third of steaks served in Hungry Horse and two thirds served in Wetherspoon public houses in the United Kingdom were from Zebu or Zebu cross-breeds, as indicated by the presence of Zebu DNA markers in the meat ( and not that the steaks were 67 % zebu as reported in papers such as the Daily Mail ).

The early view that " black " and " white " mantas were different species was also discounted through a study of mitochondrial DNA in 2001, which however did reveal some general geographic patterns: Based on limited sampling, west Pacific mantas formed one clade, east Pacific and some Caribbean mantas formed a second clade, and finally the remaining Caribbean mantas formed a third clade.

However, her work was published third, in the series of three DNA Nature articles, led by the paper of Watson and Crick which only hinted at her contribution to their hypothesis.

The third and most compelling piece of evidence is the fact that traces of DNA on the bullet came from someone with a DNA sequence possessed by only 1 % of the Swedish population.

In the third volume of the series, it was revealed that the U. S. Government had created the android Serpentor ( or, as he is called here, Serpent O. R., standing for Organic Robot ) using DNA from great historical war leaders and parts from Megatron.

Studies of the third generation are important because DES might be associated with epigenetic changes, which involve changes to the way genes behave ( not involving the DNA itself ) that may be heritable from one generation to another.

This was the first general election in which the Democratic National Alliance, a third party offered a full slate of candidates along with the two major parties ; however, the DNA lost the only seat it held in the prior parliament ( that of Branville McCartney, its founder and only MP ) and elected no candidates.

The third type of DNA damage reversed by cells is certain methylation of the bases cytosine and adenine.

The third floor is known as the “ Chromosome Forest ” which shows the sequencing of human DNA.

In the transcription factor ETS wHTH folds into a helix-turn-helix motif on a four-stranded anti-parallel beta-sheet scaffold arranged in the order α1-β1-β2-α2-α3-β3-β4 where the third helix is the DNA recognition helix.

In May 1953, Varsity was only the third newspaper in the world to carry a report on James Watson and Francis Crick's discovery of the structure of DNA, after The News Chronicle and The New York Times.

Following additional tests published in a third article, the authors stated they thought their research suggested the changes were “… due to degeneration of large numbers of egg chambers after DNA fragmentation of their constituent cells …”.

The third subgroup of ABC proteins do not function as transporters, but are rather involved in translation and DNA repair processes.

S is dominant to s. DNA studies have not yet confirmed the existence of all four alleles, with some research suggesting the existence of at least two alleles ( S and s < sup > p </ sup >) and other research suggesting the possible existence of a third allele ( s < sup > i </ sup >).

Base triads in a DNA triple helix structureThis non-Watson-Crick base-pairing allows the third strands to wind around the duplexes, which are assembled in the Watson-Crick pattern, and form triple-stranded helices such as ( poly ( dA )• 2poly ( dT )) and ( poly ( rC )• 2poly ( rC )).

California currently maintains the third largest DNA database in the world ( naturally, as CODIS contains all states ' database information ).
