The comparative analysis of statistics, based on the likelihood ratio criterion, in the automated annotation problem

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>This paper discusses the problem of automated annotation. It is a continuation of the previous work on the A⁴-algorithm (Adaptive algorithm of automated annotation) developed by Leontovich and others.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>A number of new statistics for the automated annotation of biological sequences is introduced. All these statistics are based on the likelihood ratio criterion.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>Some of the statistics yield a prediction quality that is significantly higher (up to 1.5 times higher) in comparison with the results obtained with the A⁴-procedure.</p

Magnetically intercalated multilayer silicene

Silicene, a Si-based analogue of graphene, is predicted to exhibit topological electronic phases with exotic properties capable to revolutionize electronics. In particular, the silicene structure is highly advantageous for spintronics. However, lack of synthetic routes to free-standing and magnetically functionalized silicene compounds prevents experimental corroboration of the predictions. Here we synthesize EuSi2, multilayer silicene intercalated with inherently magnetic Eu atoms, on SrSi2/Si(001) templates. The resulting films are formed by crystallites of two mutually orthogonal orientations. The structure is firmly established with electron diffraction, X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy. The compound EuSi2 exhibits non-trivial magnetic and transport properties. The data are compared with those for EuSi2 films grown on SrSi2/Si(111) templates
