The influence of memory in multi-agent consensus

Multi-agent consensus problems can often be seen as a sequence of autonomous and independent local choices between a finite set of decision options, with each local choice undertaken simultaneously, and with a shared goal of achieving a global consensus state. Being able to estimate probabilities for the different outcomes and to predict how long it takes for a consensus to be formed, if ever, are core issues for such protocols. Little attention has been given to protocols in which agents can remember past or outdated states. In this paper, we propose a framework to study what we call memory consensus protocol. We show that the employment of memory allows such processes to always converge, as well as, in some scenarios, such as cycles, converge faster. We provide a theoretical analysis of the probability of each option eventually winning such processes based on the initial opinions expressed by agents. Further, we perform experiments to investigate network topologies in which agents benefit from memory on the expected time needed for consensus

Caracterização clínica e histopatológica e tipagem do papilomavírus humano das verrugas vulgares nos receptores de transplante renal Clinical and histopathological characterization and typing of the human papillomavirus in common warts of kidney transplant recipients

Os pacientes receptores de transplante renal apresentam elevada prevalência de lesões cutâneas por HPV. Foram estudados 20 receptores de transplante renal com diagnóstico de verruga vulgar. A detecção do HPV foi realizada pela polimerização em cadeia (PCR) com os primers MY09/MY11 e RK91. A tipagem do HPV foi feita por meio da restrição enzimática e do sequenciamento automatizado. Identificamos a presença do HPV em 10 pacientes (50%) e os tipos identificados foram: HPV-2, 27, 29, 34 e 57.<br>The prevalence of skin lesions caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) is high in kidney transplant patients. Twenty recipients of kidney transplants with a diagnosis of common warts were evaluated. HPV detection was performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using the MY09/MY11 and RK91 primers. HPV typing was performed by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis and direct sequencing. The presence of HPV was identified in 10 patients (50%) and the types identified were HPV-2, 27, 29, 34 and 57
