0.0 stars

This online interface processes MSA using four different modes. The 'Resolve' mode provides tokenization and morphological analysis of the inserted text while the 'Inflect' mode lets users inflect words into the forms required by context. The 'Derive' mode allows users to derive words of similar meaning but different grammatical category. The 'Lookup' mode can lookup lexical entries by the citation form and nests of entries by the root; it also allows users to search in the English translations.

A hypothetical scenario is introduced in which the class is asked to apply their understanding of the forces that drive natural selection to prepare a proposal along with an environmental consulting company to help clean up an area near their school that is contaminated with trichloroethylene (TCE). Students use the Avida-ED software application to test hypotheses for evolving (engineering) a strain of bacteria that can biodegrade TCE, resulting in a non-hazardous clean-up solution. Conduct this design challenge activity after completion of the introduction to digital evolution activity, Studying Evolution with Digital Organisms.

Introduction to Computers and Engineering Problem Solving

0.0 stars

This course presents the fundamentals of object-oriented software design and development, computational methods and sensing for engineering, and scientific and managerial applications. It cover topics, including design of classes, inheritance, graphical user interfaces, numerical methods, streams, threads, sensors, and data structures. Students use Java programming language to complete weekly software assignments.
How is 1.00 different from other intro programming courses offered at MIT?
1.00 is a first course in programming. It assumes no prior experience, and it focuses on the use of computation to solve problems in engineering, science and management. The audience for 1.00 is non-computer science majors. 1.00 does not focus on writing compilers or parsers or computing tools where the computer is the system; it focuses on engineering problems where the computer is part of the system, or is used to model a physical or logical system.
1.00 teaches the Java programming language, and it focuses on the design and development of object-oriented software for technical problems. 1.00 is taught in an active learning style. Lecture segments alternating with laboratory exercises are used in every class to allow students to put concepts into practice immediately; this teaching style generates questions and feedback, and allows the teaching staff and students to interact when concepts are first introduced to ensure that core ideas are understood. Like many MIT classes, 1.00 has weekly assignments, which are programs based on actual engineering, science or management applications. The weekly assignments build on the class material from the previous week, and require students to put the concepts taught in the small in-class labs into a larger program that uses multiple elements of Java together.

Rating
0.0 stars

Student groups use the Java programming language to implement the algorithms for optical character recognition (OCR) that they developed in the associated lesson. They use different Java classes (provided) to test and refine their algorithms. The ultimate goal is to produce computer code that recognizes a digit on a scoreboard. Through this activity, students experience a very small part of what software engineers go through to create robust OCR methods. This software design lesson/activity set is designed to be part of a Java programming class.

Let's Take a Slice of Pi

Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

Working as a team, students discover that the value of pi (3.1415926...) is a constant and applies to all different sized circles. The team builds a basic robot and programs it to travel in a circular motion. A marker attached to the robot chassis draws a circle on the ground as the robot travels the programmed circular path. Students measure the circle's circumference and diameter and calculate pi by dividing the circumference by the diameter. They discover the pi and circumference relationship; the circumference of a circle divided by the diameter is the value of pi.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Amplicon sequencing has made the business of identifying bacteria directly from environmental samples routine work, but there’s much room for improvement. Long-read sequencing technologies have helped cover the information gaps that plague short-read sequencing, but obtaining accurate results from complex metagenomes remains a challenge. A new study reports how LoopSeq can help boost microbial detection accuracy. Building on previous synthetic long-read (SLR) technologies, LoopSeq uses barcode-based molecular counting to construct accurate long reads from short-read sequences. Experiments confirmed that LoopSeq produces long reads with low error rates. In fact, LoopSeq produced more error-free reads of different lengths compared with other commercially available long-read technologies, and in a real-world test of six samples of US retail meat. LoopSeq could differentiate between strains within species of bacteria identified by the CDC as potential foodborne pathogens..."

The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Advances in genomic laboratory and bioinformatics techniques have allowed us to infer microbial ecology information from genomes. This ability has led to great advances in microbiome science; however, there is not yet a standard comprehensive workflow for functional annotation. Some software tools annotate metabolic functions, but the new tool 'METABOLIC' improves upon this and expands into biogeochemical pathways like the carbon cycle. METABOLIC takes sequence inputs from isolates, metagenome-assembled genomes, or single-cell genomes. The data can be processed through two workflow scales: genome and/or community. The genome-scale workflow annotates the genomes and validates motifs of conserved protein residues. It also analyzes metabolic pathways and calculates the microbial contributions to individual biogeochemical processes and cycles. The community-scale workflow adds to this by first determining the genome abundance in the microbiome..."
