Density Estimation Through Convex Combinations of Densities: Approximation and Estimation Bounds [PDF]

open access: yesNeural Networks, 1997
We consider the problem of estimating a density function from a sequence identically distributed observations x(i) taking value in X subset R(d). The estimation procedure constructs a convex mixture of "basis" densities and estimates the parameters using the maximum likelihood method.

Cascaded Multi-Task Learning of Head Segmentation and Density Regression for RGBD Crowd Counting

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
In this paper we propose a novel regression based RGBD crowd counting method. Compared with previous RGBD crowd counting methods which mainly exploit depth cue to facilitate person/head detection, our approach adopts density map regression and is more ...

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Marshall's lemma for convex density estimation

open access: yes, 2007
Marshall's [Nonparametric Techniques in Statistical Inference (1970) 174--176] lemma is an analytical result which implies $\sqrt{n}$--consistency of the distribution function corresponding to the Grenander [Skand. Aktuarietidskr.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Information geometric density estimation

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2015
We investigate kernel density estimation where the kernel function varies from point to point. Density estimation in the input space means to find a set of coordinates on a statistical manifold. This novel perspective helps to combine efforts from information geometry and machine learning to spawn a family of density estimators.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Note—Estimating Geographic Customer Densities Using Kernel Density Estimation [PDF]

open access: yesMarketing Science, 1989
This paper shows how kernel density estimation may be used to estimate flexibly the geographic distribution of customers in a market. In addition it shows how a density-based product positioning methodology may be applied to site selection, using the estimated geographic customer density to help locate a new or (relocated) store or distribution center.

A comparison of density estimation methods for monitoring marked and unmarked animal populations

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Effective monitoring of wildlife populations forms the foundation of modern‐day conservation biology. Without reliable estimates of population size, it is not possible to determine population trends, a key requirement in determining species status under ...
