  2. Locus (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locus_(mathematics)

    Each curve in this example is a locus defined as the conchoid of the point P and the line l.In this example, P is 8 cm from l. In geometry, a locus (plural: loci) (Latin word for "place", "location") is a set of all points (commonly, a line, a line segment, a curve or a surface), whose location satisfies or is determined by one or more specified conditions.

  3. Second Generation Multiplex Plus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Generation...

    The genetic markers (or loci) used by SGM Plus are all short tandem repeats (STRs). The markers used are: VWA, D8S1179, D21S11, D18S51, TH01, FGA, D3S1358, D16S539, D2S1338 and D19S433. Where a marker's designation begins with D, the digits immediately following the D indicate the chromosome that contains the marker.

  4. STR analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STR_analysis

    From country to country, different STR-based DNA-profiling systems are in use. In North America, systems that amplify the CODIS 20 core loci are almost universal, whereas in the United Kingdom the DNA-17 17 loci system (which is compatible with The National DNA Database) is in use. Whichever system is used, many of the STR regions used are the ...

  5. Root locus analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_locus_analysis

    Spirule. In control theory and stability theory, root locus analysis is a graphical method for examining how the roots of a system change with variation of a certain system parameter, commonly a gain within a feedback system.

  6. Locus (genetics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locus_(genetics)

    In genetics, a locus (pl.: loci) is a specific, fixed position on a chromosome where a particular gene or genetic marker is located. [1] Each chromosome carries many genes, with each gene occupying a different position or locus; in humans, the total number of protein-coding genes in a complete haploid set of 23 chromosomes is estimated at ...

  7. Method of loci - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_loci

    The method of loci is a strategy for memory enhancement, which uses visualizations of familiar spatial environments in order to enhance the recall of information. The method of loci is also known as the memory journey , memory palace , journey method , memory spaces , or mind palace technique .

  8. Problem of Apollonius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_of_Apollonius

    This special case of Apollonius' problem is also known as the four coins problem. [47] The three given circles of this Apollonius problem form a Steiner chain tangent to the two Soddy's circles. Figure 12: The two solutions (red) to Apollonius' problem with mutually tangent given circles (black), labeled by their curvatures.

  9. Locus heterogeneity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locus_heterogeneity

    Heterogenous loci involved in formation of the same phenotype often contribute to similar biological pathways. [1] The role and degree of locus heterogeneity is an important consideration in understanding disease phenotypes and in the development of therapeutic treatment for these diseases.
