Homophily‐adjusted social influence estimation
Abstract Homophily and social influence are two key concepts of social network analysis. Distinguishing between these phenomena is difficult, and approaches to disambiguate the two have been primarily limited to longitudinal data analyses. In this study, we provide sufficient conditions for valid estimation of social influence through cross‐sectional ...

The SIR Model in a Moving Population: Propagation of Infection and Herd Immunity
ABSTRACT In a collection of particles performing independent random walks on Zd$\mathbb {Z}^d$ we study the spread of an infection with SIR dynamics. Susceptible particles become infected when they meet an infected particle. Infected particles heal and are removed at rate ν$\nu$.

A complex computing problem can be solved efficiently on a system with multiple computing nodes by dividing its implementation code into several parallel processing modules or tasks that can be formulated as directed acyclic graph (DAG) problems. The DAG

Despite the immunomodulatory mechanism of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), systemic glucocorticoids are commonly used in advanced non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Evidence regarding their effects on ICI outcomes is inconsistent, in part due to confounding by indication and immortal time bias.

LCA Queries in Directed Acyclic Graphs [PDF]
We present two methods for finding a lowest common ancestor (LCA) for each pair of vertices of a directed acyclic graph (dag) on n vertices and m edges. The first method is surprisingly natural and solves the all-pairs LCA problem for the input dag on n vertices and m edges in time O(nm). As a corollary, we obtain an O(n2)-time algorithm for finding

Dynamic Economic Relationships Among U.S. Soy Product Markets: Using a Cointegrated Vector Autoregression Approach with Directed Acyclic Graphs [PDF]
This paper applies a combined methodology of a recently developed directed acyclic graph (DAG) analysis with Johansen and Juselius' methods of the cointegrated vector autoregression (VAR) model to a monthly U.S.

Pain and fever are common in pregnancy. Dipyrone is widely used in Europe, Latin America, and parts of Asia, but is banned in other countries due to concerns about agranulocytosis. Evidence on its safety in pregnancy remains limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate whether maternal dipyrone use during the first‐ and third‐trimesters is ...

Exposure–response (E–R) analyses of sunitinib in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) have supported concentration‐guided dose escalation. However, such analyses may be biased when exposure metrics incorporate post‐baseline dose modifications, time‐varying apparent clearance, or baseline factors that influence both pharmacokinetics and clinical ...
