Bridging the Gap in Neuroblastoma Care: Consensus‐Based Statements With Recommendations for Improved Patient and Caregiver Experiences

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuroblastoma's complex, heterogeneous biology poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, often requiring caregivers to absorb complex information and participate in time‐sensitive decisions. However, caregivers often feel unprepared to evaluate options.

Subdomain separability in global optimization

open access: yesJournal of Global Optimization, 2022
AbstractWe introduce a generalization of separability for global optimization, presented in the context of a simple branch and bound method. Our results apply to continuously differentiable objective functions implemented as computer programs. A significant search space reduction can be expected to yield an acceleration of any global optimization ...

Application of data mining in a global optimization algorithm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A hybrid global optimization algorithm is developed in this research. The probability of finding the globaloptimal solution is increased by reducing the search space.

Experimental Study of Excessive Local Refinement Reduction Techniques for Global Optimization DIRECT-Type Algorithms

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
This article considers a box-constrained global optimization problem for Lipschitz continuous functions with an unknown Lipschitz constant. The well-known derivative-free global search algorithm DIRECT (DIvide RECTangle) is a promising approach for such ...

Improvement of Sickle Cell Disease Care Mitigates the Healthcare Utilization Induced by Increased Prevalence: Experience of a Tertiary Pediatric Center

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) has undergone major changes in the last decades. Its prevalence has been steadily increasing and numerous advances have been made in the management of the disease. However, the effect in real‐life setting of these major changes is unknown, particularly in a Canadian environment. Procedure We aimed to assess

Novelty search for global optimization

open access: yesApplied Mathematics and Computation, 2019
Novelty search is a tool in evolutionary and swarm robotics for maintaining the diversity of population needed for continuous robotic operation. It enables nature-inspired algorithms to evaluate solutions on the basis of the distance to their k-nearest neighbors in the search space.

Globally optimal regions and boundaries [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Seventh IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision, 1999
We propose a new form of energy functional for the segmentation of regions in images, and an efficient method for finding its global optima. The energy can have contributions from both the region and its boundary, thus combining the best features of region- and boundary-based approaches to segmentation. By transforming the region energy into a boundary

A Family of Hybrid Stochastic Conjugate Gradient Algorithms for Local and Global Minimization Problems

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
This paper contains two main parts, Part I and Part II, which discuss the local and global minimization problems, respectively. In Part I, a fresh conjugate gradient (CG) technique is suggested and then combined with a line-search technique to obtain a ...

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...
