Blume-Emery-Griffiths dynamics in social networks (2008)

Yang, Yao-Hui, Chen, Yong, Qin, Shao-Meng

We introduce the Blume-Emery-Griffiths (BEG) model in a social networks to describe the three-state dynamics of opinion formation. It shows that the probability distribution function of the time...

Topological defects in two-dimensional crystals (2008)

Chen, Yong, Qi, Wei-Kai

By using topological current theory, we study the inner topological structure of the topological defects in two-dimensional (2D) crystal. We find that there are two elementary point defects...

Effect of memory on the prisoner's dilemma game in a square lattice (2008)

Qin, Shao-Meng, Chen, Yong, Zhao, Xiao-Ying, Shi, Jian

We have studied the effect of memory on evolution of the prisoner's dilemma game using square lattice networks. Based on extensive simulations, we found that the density of cooperators was enhanced...

Nitrite does not provide additional protection to thrombolysis in a rat model of stroke with delayed reperfusion (2007)

Schatlo, Bawarjan, Henning, Erica C., Pluta, Ryszard M., Latour, Lawrence L., Golpayegani, Nahal, Merrill, Marsha J., ...

An adjuvant therapy to prolong the therapeutic window for stroke patients is urgently needed. This randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled study investigated adjuvant intravenous sodium nitrite with...

Detection of subthreshold pulses in neurons with channel noise (2007)

Chen, Yong, Yu, Lianchun, Qin, Shao-Meng

Neurons are subject to various kinds of noise. In addition to synaptic noise, the stochastic opening and closing of ion channels represents an intrinsic source of noise that affects the signal...

AlphaCP1 mediates stabilization of hTERT mRNA by autocrine human growth hormone (2007)

Emerald, B. Starling, Chen, Yong, Zhu, Tao, Zhu, Zhe, Lee, Kok-Onn, Gluckman, Peter D., ...

We herein demonstrate that autocrine human growth hormone production in human mammary carcinoma cells results in increased telomerase activity as a result of specific up-regulation of telomerase...

Description of dynamics of stock prices by a Langevin approach (2005)

Huang, Zi-Gang, Chen, Yong, Zhang, Yong, Wang, Ying-Hai

We present a time-dependent Langevin description of dynamics of stock prices. Based on a simple sliding-window algorithm, the fluctuation of stock prices is discussed in the view of a time-dependent...

On the Rhetoric of Defining Confucianism as a "Religion": A Hermeneutic Reading of the Controversy on Confucian Religiosity and its Significance to the Understanding of Chinese Tradition and Modernity (2005)

Chen, Yong

This project examines how the controversy on Confucian religiosity has shaped the conceptualization of Confucianism and of religion, and how it has contributed to the understanding of Chinese...

Constructing a language model based on data mining techniques for a Chinese character recognition system (2005)

Chen, Yong

(Uncorrected OCR) Abstract of thesis entitled Constructing a Language Model Based on Data Mining Techniques for a Chinese Character Recognition System Submitted by Chen, Yong For the degree of Doctor...

Atomic Force Microscope Imaging of the Aggregation of Mouse Immunoglobulin G Molecules (2003)

Jiye Cai, Yao Chen, Qingcai Xu, Yong Chen, Tao Zhao, Xiaoyan Wang, ...

Mouse immunoglobulin G (Ig G1 and the mixture of Ig G1 and Ig G2) deposited on mica were imaged with an atomic force microscope at room temperature and ambient pressure. At a concentration around...

A Recently Active Miniature Inverted-Repeat Transposable Element, Chunjie, Inserted Into an Operon Without Disturbing the Operon Structure in Geobacter uraniireducens Rf4

Chen, Yong, Zhou, Fengfeng, Li, Guojun, Xu, Ying

Miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs) are short DNA transposons with terminal inverted repeat (TIR) signals and have been extensively studied in plants and other eukaryotes. But...

A Dynamic Model of Household Location, Regional Growth and Endogenous Natural Amenities with Cross-Scale Interactions

Irwin, Elena G., Jayaprakash, Ciriyam, Chen, Yong

We develop a coupled model of regional migration and lake ecology to study the influence of ecological-economic interactions and relative time scales on transient and asymptotic dynamics. Cross-scale...

Divergent Time Scales in a Coupled Ecological-Economic Model of Regional Growth

Chen, Yong, Jayaprakash, Ciriyam, Irwin, Elena G.

This paper establishes a coupled human-ecological model where slow-varying migration is interacting with fast-varying nutrient dynamics in lake ecology. The nonlinearity and fast-slow dynamics built...
