Branching Processes

The Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1948
This paper is concerned with a simple mathematical model for a branching stochastic process. Using the language of family trees we may illustrate the process as follows. The probability that a man has exactly $r$ sons is $p_r, r = 0, 1, 2, \cdots$. Each of his sons (who together make up the first generation) has the same probabilities of having a given

Branching processes for QuickCheck generators [PDF]

ACM SIGPLAN Notices, 2018
In QuickCheck (or, more generally, random testing), it is challenging to control random data generators' distributions---specially when it comes to user-defined algebraic data types (ADT). In this paper, we adapt results from an area of mathematics known as branching processes, and show how they help to analytically predict (at compile-time) the ...

Branching Random Walks in a Random Killing Environment with a Single Reproduction Source

Mathematics
We consider a continuous-time branching random walk on Z in a random non-homogeneous environment. The process starts with a single particle at initial time t=0.

A Branching-Process-Based Method to Check Soundness of Workflow Systems

IEEE Access, 2016
Workflow nets (WF-nets) as a class of Petri nets are widely used to model and analyze workflow systems. Soundness is an important property of WF-nets, which guarantees that the systems are deadlock- and livelock-free and each task has a chance to be ...

Mapping Childhood Cancer Care Services in Oceania: Methodological Lessons From the SIOP Global Mapping Programme

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The International Paediatric Oncology Society Global Mapping Programme aims to collect data on global paediatric oncology services by continent, with Africa and Latin America completed. This study reports on the methodology and lessons learned for Oceania, a unique continent with resource disparity across countries, multiple small island ...

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...

Total progeny in the near-critical multi-type Galton-Watson processes with immigration

Математичні Студії
In this paper, we study Galton-Watson branching processes with immigration. These processes are an extension of the classical Galton-Watson model, incorporating an additional mechanism where new individuals, called immigrants, enter the population ...

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

Probability of early infection extinction depends linearly on the virus clearance rate

Royal Society Open Science
We provide an in silico study of stochastic viral infection extinction from a pharmacokinetical viewpoint. Our work considers a non-specific antiviral drug that increases the virus clearance rate, and we investigate the effect of this drug on early ...

On supercritical branching processes with emigration

Journal of Applied Probability, 2022
AbstractWe study supercritical branching processes under the influence of an independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) emigration component. We provide conditions under which the lifetime of the process is finite or has a finite expectation.
