Relative humidity and its effect on aerosol optical depth in the vicinity of convective clouds

Environmental Research Letters, 2013
The hygroscopic growth of aerosols is controlled by the relative humidity (RH) and changes the aerosols’ physical and hence optical properties. Observational studies of aerosol–cloud interactions evaluate the aerosol concentration using optical ...

Simulation-Based Analysis of Intelligent Maintenance Systems and Spare Parts Supply Chains Integration

Journal of Intelligent Systems, 2019
Production systems are composed of increasingly complex components with unique specifications. Therefore, since holding safety stocks of each component would be prohibitive, maintenance activities rely on the proper delivery of spare parts, making it ...

Can the United States achieve 90–90–90?

Current Opinion in HIV and AIDS, 2019
To summarize recent trends in knowledge of HIV status, care and viral suppression, and the status of implementation of relevant contextual requirements for the United States to achieve the 90-90-90 goals. Recently, the US government announced a plan to decrease HIV incidence by over 90% by 2030.

90-90-90-Plus: Maintaining Adherence to Antiretroviral Therapies [PDF]

AIDS Patient Care and STDs, 2017
Medication adherence is the "Plus" in the global challenge to have 90% of HIV-infected individuals tested, 90% of those who are HIV positive treated, and 90% of those treated achieve an undetectable viral load. The latter indicates viral suppression, the goal for clinicians treating people living with HIV (PLWH). The comparative importance of different

Hyper-parameter optimization for support vector machines using stochastic gradient descent and dual coordinate descent

EURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2020
We developed a gradient-based method to optimize the regularization hyper-parameter, C, for support vector machines in a bilevel optimization framework. On the upper level, we optimized the hyper-parameter C to minimize the prediction loss on validation ...

The 90 90 90 strategy to end the HIV Pandemic by 2030: Can the supply chain handle it?

Journal of the International AIDS Society, 2016
Introduction UNAIDS “90‐90‐90” strategy calls for 90% of HIV‐infected individuals to be diagnosed by 2020, 90% of whom will be on anti‐retroviral therapy (ART) and 90% of whom will achieve sustained virologic suppression.

Getting to 90–90–90: Experiences from the MaxART Early Access to ART for All (EAAA) Trial in Eswatini

Current HIV/AIDS Reports, 2020
The MaxART Consortium-led by the Eswatini Ministry of Health-implemented multiple interventions between 2012 and 2017 to achieve UNAIDS 90-90-90 targets. We summarize key findings from community outreach strategies in support of the first 90 goal, and from the Early Access to ART for All (EAAA) trial on the implementation of a "Treat All" strategy to ...

On estimating the number of people with known HIV positive status

BMC Research Notes, 2020
Objective In 2014, the Joint United Nations Program on HIV and AIDS (UNAIDS) and partners set the ‘90-90-90 targets’. Many countries are facing the challenge of estimating the first 90. Our objective was to propose an alternative modelling procedure, and
