Outcomes of Live Virus Vaccination in Patients With Vascular Anomalies Being Treated With Sirolimus
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Live vaccination in patients with vascular anomalies (VA) receiving sirolimus remains controversial due to immunosuppressive effects and theoretical risks. Procedure This single‐center retrospective study included patients with VA less than 4 years old at the start of sirolimus therapy who were incompletely vaccinated.

Importance Sampling for Minibatches
, 2016 Minibatching is a very well studied and highly popular technique in supervised learning, used by practitioners due to its ability to accelerate training through better utilization of parallel processing power and reduction of stochastic variance. Another popular technique is importance sampling -- a strategy for preferential sampling of more important ...

Hyperdynamics Importance Sampling [PDF]
, 2002 Sequential random sampling (‘Markov Chain Monte-Carlo') is a popular strategy for many vision problems involving multimodal distributions over high-dimensional parameter spaces. It applies both to importance sampling (where one wants to sample points according to their ‘importance' for some calculation, but otherwise fairly) and to global optimization (

Faster Coordinate Descent via Adaptive Importance Sampling [PDF]
, 2017 Coordinate descent methods employ random partial updates of decision variables in order to solve huge-scale convex optimization problems. In this work, we introduce new adaptive rules for the random selection of their updates.

Metropolis‐Hastings Importance Sampling Estimator [PDF]
PAMM, 2017 AbstractBased on the proposed states of the Metropolis‐Hastings (MH) algorithm we construct a MH Importance Sampling estimator for the approximation of expectations. The new approximation scheme is asymptotically correct and numerical experiments indicate that it can outperform the classical MH Markov chain Monte Carlo estimator.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary dysfunction and sleep abnormalities are common in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) and are associated with worse clinical outcomes. Whether spirometry abnormalities are associated with polysomnography (PSG) findings remains unclear.
