Topology basic element

The artificial neural network (ANN) is a system imitating the operation of a biological neural network. It is composed of the set of basic elements (artificial neurons) that are mutually connected. In general, to describe the ANN operation at least three basic properties should be known namely a neuron model (transfer function), the network topology and the method of training. 

SafeCap offers a fairly compact core DSL. The basic element of a SafeCap schema is the definition of railway topology. The main concepts of the DSL are tracks, nodes, ambits (train detection units), routes, lines and rules. The SafeCap DSL is a formal language a schema is interpreted as a hybrid transition model - a model mixing continuous and discrete behaviours. The discrete part is employed to derive static verification conditions (theorems) and, as a supplementary technique, to help discover transition traces leading to the violation of safety conditions. The continuous part refines the discrete part with the notions of train acceleration/decelerafion, point switching and driver reaction times, and so on. 

Fig. 3. An example of fold topologies predicted from the maximization of secondary structure and the minimization of solvent-exposed hydrophobic residues. On the right is the basic three-dimensional packing of the secondary structure elements. Although no restrictions on the connectivity between these elements is shown, maximization of the secondary structure does imply some restrictions, such as those observed in most four-helix bundles and in all a/fi eight barrels. The top view on the right displays, as shaded, the buried hydrophobic sides of the amphipathic a helices and fi sheets.

In this book we shall be concerned only with a very limited. selection of the elements of topology, relevant to the basics of topological shape analysis of molecules. All the tools we shall use will be described in sufficient detail in the book. However, for readers interested in more details of the fundamentals, some introductory and advanced texts are listed among the references [113-122]. 

Overall connectivity indices vere proposed as a meaningful measure of topological complexity of molecules, since they satisfy two fundamental requirements to a complexity measure to increase with both the number of structural elements and their intercoimectedness the basic idea is that The higher the connectivity of molecular graph and its connected subgraphs, the more complex the molecule [Bonchev and Trinajstic, 1977]. 

We point out that the elasticity of the lamella, which is the basic topological element of the foam structure separating the disperse gaseous inclusions, must be substantially larger than the elasticity of the adsorption layer. 

At first glance, it may appear as though polarity disassociation between element voltage and current variables is an impossible circumstance. Not only is polarity disassociation possible, it is absolutely necessary if electrical circuits are to subscribe to the fundamental principle of conservation of power. This principle states that the net power dissipated by a circuit must be identical to the net power supplied to that circuit. A confirmation of this basic principle derives from a further consideration of the topology in Fig. 2.7. The electrical variables, v(t) and i (t), pertinent to the element delineated in this circuit are in associated reference polarity. Accordingly, the power pe t) dissipated by this element is positive and given by Eq. (2.14) namely.
