Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Sampling using a ‘bank’ of clues [PDF]
, 2010 An easy-to-implement form of the Metropolis Algorithm is described which, unlike most standard techniques, is well suited to sampling from multi-modal distributions on spaces with moderate numbers of dimensions (order ten) in environments typical of ...

Stochastic Enumeration with Importance Sampling [PDF]
Methodology and Computing in Applied Probability, 2018 Many hard problems in the computational sciences are equivalent to counting the leaves of a decision tree, or, more generally, summing a cost function over the nodes. These problems include calculating the permanent of a matrix, finding the volume of a convex polyhedron, and counting the number of linear extensions of a partially ordered set.

Halton Sampling for Image Registration Based on Mutual Information
, 2008 Mutual information is a widely used similarity measure for aligning multimodal medical images. At its core, it relies on the computation of a discrete joint histogram, which itself requires image samples for its estimation.

Fully Bayesian Experimental Design for Pharmacokinetic Studies
Entropy, 2015 Utility functions in Bayesian experimental design are usually based on the posterior distribution. When the posterior is found by simulation, it must be sampled from for each future dataset drawn from the prior predictive distribution.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Embryonal tumors comprise the majority of malignant central nervous system (CNS) neoplasms diagnosed in children under 3 years of age. Compared with their counterparts in older children, these tumors exhibit distinct molecular biology and a more aggressive clinical phenotype, while their management is complicated by the heightened ...
