Distributed Particle Filter for Target Tracking: With Reduced Sensor Communications

open access: yesSensors, 2016
For efficient and accurate estimation of the location of objects, a network of sensors can be used to detect and track targets in a distributed manner. In nonlinear and/or non-Gaussian dynamic models, distributed particle filtering methods are commonly ...

Social context prevents heat hormetic effects against mutagens during fish development

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study shows that sublethal heat stress protects fish embryos against ultraviolet radiation, a concept known as ‘hormesis’. However, chemical stress transmission between fish embryos negates this protective effect. By providing evidence for the mechanistic molecular basis of heat stress hormesis and interindividual stress communication, this study ...

Maintaining symmetry of simulated likelihood functions [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper suggests solutions to two different types of simulation errors related to Quasi-Monte Carlo integration. Likelihood functions which depend on standard deviations of mixed parameters are symmetric in nature.

Resonance Searches with Machine Learned Likelihood Ratios [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
We demonstrate the power of machine-learned likelihood ratios for resonance searches in a benchmark model featuring a heavy Z' boson. The likelihood ratio is expressed as a function of multivariate detector level observables, but rather than being calculated explicitly as in matrix-element-based approaches, it is learned from a joint likelihood ratio ...

Spot‐14 and its paralog Spot‐14R regulate expression of metabolic and thermogenic pathway genes in murine brown and beige adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Spot‐14 and Spot‐14R play distinct roles in regulating metabolism in brown and beige adipocytes. While both influence lipid and glucose pathways, Spot‐14 uniquely controls thermogenic gene expression. This dual regulation balances energy storage and heat production, highlighting potential therapeutic targets for obesity and metabolic disorders. Spot 14

Classification by means of B-spline potential functions with applications to remote sensing [PDF]

open access: yes
A method is presented for using B-splines as potential functions in the estimation of likelihood functions (probability density functions conditioned on pattern classes), or the resulting discriminant functions.

Is profile likelihood a true likelihood? An argument in favor [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Profile likelihood is the key tool for dealing with nuisance parameters in likelihood theory. It is often asserted, however, that profile likelihood is not a 'true' likelihood. One implication is that likelihood theory lacks the generality of e.g. Bayesian inference, wherein marginalization is the universal tool for dealing with nuisance parameters ...

Interaction vesicles as emerging mediators of host‐pathogen molecular crosstalk and their implications for infection dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interaction extracellular vesicles (iEVs) are hybrid vesicles formed through host‐pathogen communication. They facilitate immune evasion, transfer pathogens' molecules, increase host cell uptake, and enhance virulence. This Perspective article illustrates the multifunctional roles of iEVs and highlights their emerging relevance in infection dynamics ...

Statistical inference of unified hybrid censoring scheme for generalized inverted exponential distribution with application to COVID-19 data

open access: yesAIP Advances
Using a unified hybrid censoring scheme, this study explores statistical inferences for products with lifetimes following the generalized inverted exponential distribution. The model’s parameters are estimated using the maximum likelihood approach.

MLEP: an R package for exploring the maximum likelihood estimates of penetrance parameters

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2012
Background Linkage analysis is a useful tool for detecting genetic variants that regulate a trait of interest, especially genes associated with a given disease.
