Learning the Parameters of Determinantal Point Process Kernels [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
Determinantal point processes (DPPs) are well-suited for modeling repulsion and have proven useful in many applications where diversity is desired. While DPPs have many appealing properties, such as efficient sampling, learning the parameters of a DPP is still considered a difficult problem due to the non-convex nature of the likelihood function.

Is plantar thermography a valid digital biomarker for characterising diabetic foot ulceration risk? [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Background: In the absence of prospective data on diabetic foot ulcers (DFU), cross-sectional associations with causal risk factors (peripheral neuropathy, and peripheral arterial disease (PAD)) could be used to establish the validity of plantar thermography for DFU risk stratification.

Ultrasonographic Identification of Pacinian Corpuscles in the Hand: A Pilot Study of Technique and Reliability

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Pacinian corpuscles are end organs of the sensory nervous system. The size and superficial location of Pacinian corpuscles allows them to be visualized with high‐resolution ultrasound. This pilot study sought to assess the reliability of Pacinian corpuscle counting in the hand using ultrasound.
