OTClean: Data Cleaning for Conditional Independence Violations using Optimal Transport [PDF]

open access: yesProc. ACM Manag. Data
Ensuring Conditional Independence (CI) constraints is pivotal for the development of fair and trustworthy machine learning models. In this paper, we introduce OTClean, a framework that harnesses optimal transport theory for data repair under CI ...

A dose response model for Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Dose-response models (DRMs) are used to predict the probability of microbial infection when a person is exposed to a given number of pathogens. In this study, we propose a new DRM for Staphylococcus aureus (SA), which causes skin and soft-tissue ...

Volcanic hazard assessment for the Canary Islands (Spain) using extreme value theory [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2011
The Canary Islands are an active volcanic region densely populated and visited by several millions of tourists every year. Nearly twenty eruptions have been reported through written chronicles in the last 600 yr, suggesting that the probability of a new ...

Reliability analysis for high-lift device based on Copula function and Bayesian updating

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2018
In order to improve the reliability analysis accuracy of the aircraft high-lift, an approach based on the Copula function theory and Bayesian updating is proposed. Considering the influence of the random variables’ correlation in the process of updating,

Information Structures for Causally Explainable Decisions

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
For an AI agent to make trustworthy decision recommendations under uncertainty on behalf of human principals, it should be able to explain why its recommended decisions make preferred outcomes more likely and what risks they entail.

A stepwise emergence of evolution in the RNA world

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How did biological evolution emerge from chemical reactions? This perspective proposes a gradual scenario of self‐organization among RNA molecules, where catalytic feedback on random mixtures plays the central role. Short oligomers cross‐ligate, and self‐assembly enables heritable variations. An event of template‐externalization marks the transition to

Insights into pegRNA design from editing of the cardiomyopathy‐associated phospholamban R14del mutation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA) secondary structure and reverse transcriptase template length affect prime editing efficiency in correcting the phospholamban R14del cardiomyopathy‐associated mutation. Insights support the design of structurally optimized enhanced pegRNAs for precise gene therapy.

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...
