Optics-less smart sensors and a possible mechanism of cutaneous vision in nature [PDF]
, 2008 Optics-less cutaneous (skin) vision is not rare among living organisms, though its mechanisms and capabilities have not been thoroughly investigated. This paper demonstrates, using methods from statistical parameter estimation theory and numerical simulations, that an array of bare sensors with a natural cosine-law angular sensitivity arranged on a ...

Integrated machine learning pipeline for aberrant biomarker enrichment (i-mAB): characterizing clusters of differentiation within a compendium of systemic lupus erythematosus patients [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Clusters of differentiation (CD) are cell surface biomarkers that denote key biological differences between cell types and disease state. CD-targeting therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAB) afford rich trans-disease repositioning opportunities. Within a compendium of systemic lupus erythematous (SLE) patients, we applied the Integrated machine ...

How scientific literature has been evolving over the time? A novel statistical approach using tracking verbal-based methods [PDF]
JSM Proceedings (2014), Section on Statistical Learning and Data
Mining. Alexandria, VA. American Statistical Association. 1121-1131, 2016 This paper provides a global vision of the scientific publications related with the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), taking as starting point abstracts of articles. Through the time, abstracts have been evolving towards higher complexity on used terminology, which makes necessary the use of sophisticated statistical methods and answering questions ...

Classification on Large Networks: A Quantitative Bound via Motifs and Graphons [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 When each data point is a large graph, graph statistics such as densities of certain subgraphs (motifs) can be used as feature vectors for machine learning. While intuitive, motif counts are expensive to compute and difficult to work with theoretically. Via graphon theory, we give an explicit quantitative bound for the ability of motif homomorphisms to

A Guide to Screening for Autoimmune Diseases in Patients With Vulvar Lichen Sclerosus
Australasian Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.ABSTRACTBackgroundThe aetiology of vulvar lichen sclerosus (VLS) remains unknown. However, there is evidence that in addition to a genetic predisposition, autoimmunity contributes to the pathogenesis.ObjectivesThe objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of autoimmune disease and positive autoantibody serology in patients with VLS ...
