Evaluating the Performance of Explanation Methods on Ordinal Regression CNN Models
This paper introduces an evaluation procedure to validate the efficacy of explanation methods for Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models in... -
Explanation in Evo-Devo
Evo-devo is a multidisciplinary field that investigates the interplay between evolutionary and developmental processes and brings together different... -
Theoretical Explanation for the Variability in Platelet Activation through the GPVI Receptor
Abstract—One of the key receptors on the surface of platelets, non-nuclear cells responsible for preventing blood loss when blood vessels are...

Reproductive timing as an explanation for skewed parentage assignment ratio in a bisexually philopatric population
AbstractIn mammals, reproductive success can often be directly observed for females, but not males. Early-life correlates of female reproductive...

Molecular explanation of Wnt/βcatenin antagonist pyrvinium mediated calcium equilibrium changes in aging cardiovascular disorders
The symptoms of ageing are somewhat different and can lead to the altered role of the cardiovascular system at the levels of genetic, biochemical,...

An explanation for the decreased severity of liver malfunction in Niemann-Pick C1 disease with age
Niemann-Pick C disease frequently presents as severe cholestatic disease in infants. However, it progressively becomes less of a problem as children...

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) codon adapts well to the gene expression profile of liver cancer: an evolutionary explanation for HBV’s oncogenic role
Due to the evolutionary arms race between hosts and viruses, viruses must adapt to host translation systems to rapidly synthesize viral proteins....

An evolutionary explanation for ineffective altruism
We donate billions to charities each year, yet much of our giving is ineffective. Why are we motivated to give but not to give effectively? Building...

The Organism in Evolutionary Explanation: From Early Twentieth Century to the Extended Evolutionary Synthesis
In recent years there have been a number of calls for integrating developmental and organismal phenomena into evolutionary theory. This so-called... -
The importance of spatial configuration of neighbouring land cover for explanation of surface temperature of individual patches in urban landscapes
ContextRelationships between spatial configuration of urban form and land surface temperature (LST) in the excess heat mitigation context are studied...

Intra-protein interactions of SARS-CoV-2 and SARS: a bioinformatic analysis for plausible explanation regarding stability, divergency, and severity
The current nightmare for the whole world is COVID-19. The occurrence of concentrated pneumonia cases in Wuhan city, Hubei province of China, was...

Little Evidence to Support the Risk–Disturbance Hypothesis as an Explanation for Responses to Anthropogenic Noise by Pygmy Marmosets (Cebuella niveiventris) at a Tourism site in the Peruvian Amazon
The risk–disturbance hypothesis states that animals react to human stressors in the same way as they do to natural predators. Given increasing...

Early manifestation of aging-related vascular dysfunction in human penile vasculature—A potential explanation for the role of erectile dysfunction as a harbinger of systemic vascular disease
Advanced age is related to functional alterations of human vasculature, but erectile dysfunction precedes systemic manifestations of vascular...

An updated explanation of ancestral karyotype changes and reconstruction of evolutionary trajectories to form Camelina sativa chromosomes
BackgroundBelonging to lineage I of Brassicaceae, Camelina sativa is formed by two hybridizations of three species (three sub-genomes). The three...

Complexities in viral replication strategies as a potential explanation for prevalence of asymptomatic carriers in Covid-19 infections: analytical observation on SARS-Cov2 genome characteristics
Analytical observations (in silico) indicate molecular features of SARS-Cov2 genome that potentially explains the high prevalence of asymptomatic...

The general anesthetic etomidate and fenamate mefenamic acid oppositely affect GABAAR and GlyR: a structural explanation
GABA and glycine act as inhibitory neurotransmitters in the CNS. Inhibitory neurotransmission is mediated via activation of ionotropic GABA A and...

The inherence bias in preschoolers’ explanations for achievement differences: replication and extension
Two studies examined how preschoolers ( N = 610; French) explain differences in achievement. Replicating and extending previous research, the results...
