Long non-coding RNAs: Mechanism of action and functional utility [PDF]

open access: yesNon-coding RNA Research, 2016
Recent RNA sequencing studies have revealed that most of the human genome is transcribed, but very little of the total transcriptomes has the ability to encode proteins.

Comparison of utility measures and auditory performance in children with cochlear implants and hearing aids in India: a cross-sectional study [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology
Objectives: Hearing loss significantly impacts auditory function and quality of life in children. Assessing Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) using utility measures provides valuable insight into the effectiveness of interventions such as Cochlear ...

Health-related quality of life in adults with epidermolysis bullosa: a cross-sectional study in seven European countries using EQ-5D-5L [PDF]

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases
Background Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a rare genetic disorder that causes extreme skin fragility, chronic pain, and functional impairment, with major psychosocial and economic consequences.

Estimating health state utilities in Duchenne muscular dystrophy using the health utilities index and EQ-5D-5L

open access: yesJournal of Patient-Reported Outcomes, 2023
Background The progression of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is characterized by loss of ambulation, respiratory insufficiency, cardiomyopathy, and early mortality. DMD profoundly impacts health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL).

Common Mathematical Foundations of Expected Utility and Dual Utility Theories [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We show that the main results of the expected utility and dual utility theories can be derived in a unified way from two fundamental mathematical ideas: the separation principle of convex analysis, and integral representations of continuous linear ...

Schwinger-Dyson approach to Liouville Field Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We discuss Liouville field theory in the framework of Schwinger-Dyson approach and derive a functional equation for the three-point structure constant.

Time Functions as Utilities [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Mathematical Physics, 2010
Every time function on spacetime gives a (continuous) total preordering of the spacetime events which respects the notion of causal precedence. The problem of the existence of a (semi-)time function on spacetime and the problem of recovering the causal structure starting from the set of time functions are studied.

Understanding complex functional wiring patterns in major depressive disorder through brain functional connectome

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry, 2021
Brain function relies on efficient communications between distinct brain systems. The pathology of major depressive disorder (MDD) damages functional brain networks, resulting in cognitive impairment.

A Utile Function Optimizer

open access: yes2007 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation, 2007
We recast the problem of unconstrained continuous evolutionary optimization as inference in a fixed graphical model. This approach allows us to address several pervasive issues in optimization, including the traditionally difficult problem of selecting an algorithm that is most appropriate for a given task.
