A large‐scale retrospective study in metastatic breast cancer patients using circulating tumour DNA and machine learning to predict treatment outcome and progression‐free survival

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
There is an unmet need in metastatic breast cancer patients to monitor therapy response in real time. In this study, we show how a noninvasive and affordable strategy based on sequencing of plasma samples with longitudinal tracking of tumour fraction paired with a statistical model provides valuable information on treatment response in advance of the ...

A logistic model of periodic chemotherapy

open access: yesApplied Mathematics Letters, 1995
AbstractA logistic differential equation with a time-varying periodic parameter is used to model the growth of cells, in particular cancer cells, in the presences of chemotherapeutic drugs. The chemotherapeutic effects are modeled by a periodic parameter that modifies the growth rate of the cell tissue. A negative growth rate represents the detrimental

Time Series Analysis for Longitudinal Survey Data Under Informative Sampling and Nonignorable Missingness

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2022
The analysis of longitudinal survey data is often complicated when informative sampling or nonignorable missing data exists. Existing methods that can handle both informative sampling and nonignorable missing data are only limited to the situation of no

Logistic wavelets and logistic function: An application to model the spread of SARS-CoV-2 virus infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In the present paper, we model the cumulative number of persons reported to be infected by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, in a country or a region, by a sum of logistic functions. For a given logistic function, using Eulerian numbers, we find the zeros of its successive derivatives and their relationship with the saturation level of this function.

Estimation of the parameters of a stochastic logistic growth model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We consider a stochastic logistic growth model involving both birth and death rates in the drift and diffusion coefficients for which extinction eventually occurs almost surely.

Learning Logistic Circuits

open access: yes, 2019
This paper proposes a new classification model called logistic circuits. On MNIST and Fashion datasets, our learning algorithm outperforms neural networks that have an order of magnitude more parameters.

Novel CT radiomics models for the postoperative prediction of early recurrence of resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma: A single‐center retrospective study in China

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess the predictive capability of CT radiomics features for early recurrence (ER) of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Methods Postoperative PDAC patients were retrospectively selected, all of whom had undergone preoperative CT imaging and surgery. Both patients with resectable or borderline‐resectable pancreatic cancer met

A descriptive and validation study of a predictive model of severity of SARS-COV-2 infection

open access: yesAdvances in Laboratory Medicine, 2021
The strain the SARS-COV-2 pandemic is putting on hospitals requires that predictive values are identified for a rapid triage and management of patients at a higher risk of developing severe COVID-19. We developed and validated a prognostic model of COVID-
