On the Accuracy of Measurements of Probabilities of Loss in Telephone Systems

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1949
Summary For a simple type of telephone system, expressions are obtained for the first few moments of the distributions of the number of lost calls and of the total time for which the system is blocked by congestion. It is believed that the results will be valuable when planning experiments to determine corresponding quantities in more ...

In vitro and in silico modelling of ROS1‐positive non‐small cell lung cancer reveals fusion‐dependent tyrosine kinase inhibitor responses

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Drug resistance limits treatment success in a subset of lung cancers driven by ROS1 gene alterations. Using patient‐derived cells and computer simulations, we studied three key mutations and how they affect five targeted drugs. The mutations reduced drug effectiveness in different ways by altering protein structure and behavior.

Probability of loss reversal in Australia

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Management, 2016
Investors in loss firms assess the likelihood of these firms reverting to profit (i.e. loss reversal). This research examines the factors useful for predicting future loss reversal in the Australian market. Specifically, it focuses on loss firms’ investment activities, in addition to factors examined in previous US literature.

Circulating microRNA signatures of cachexia and cancer in Canis familiaris as a comparative oncology model for human disease

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of cachexia and sex‐specific cancer in senior dogs. In 25 client‐owned dogs, four circulating miRNAs (miR‐15a, miR‐15b, miR‐16, miR‐140) were downregulated in cachexia, with miR‐16 the strongest individual biomarker (AUC = 0.899).

Probability Distortion and Loss Aversion in Futures Hedging [PDF]

open access: yes
We analyze how the introduction of probability distortion and loss aversion in the standard hedging problem changes the optimal hedge ratio. Based on simulated cash and futures prices for soybeans, our results indicate that the optimal hedge changes ...

An experimental investigation of insurance decisions in low probability and high loss risk situations

open access: yes, 2014
This experimental study investigates insurance decisions in low-probability, high-loss risk situations. Results indicate that subjects consider the probability of loss (loss size) when they make buying decisions (paying decisions).

PV system sizing using observed time series of solar radiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Sizing represents an important part of photovoltaic system design. This paper describes a sizing procedure based on the observed time series of solar radiation. Using a simple geometrical construction, the sizing curve is determined as a superposition of

Intrapatient tumour heterogeneity and clonal evolution in an autopsy study of metastatic salivary gland cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumour heterogeneity and clonal evolution of metastatic salivary gland cancer were evaluated in two patients with adenoid carcinoma and one patient with myoepithelial carcinoma. Radiology‐guided autopsy enabled multi‐region sampling (total samples n = 149), followed by whole‐genome sequencing and phylogenetic reconstruction (17 tumour samples, 4–7 per ...

Predictive and prognostic biomarkers of Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin therapy failure in bladder cancer patients: A systematic review

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
High‐risk bladder cancer is typically treated with Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin (BCG), but 30–40% of patients relapse. No FDA‐ or CE‐approved biomarkers currently predict or prognosticate BCG failure. We systematically reviewed the literature and identified 72 eligible studies, revealing several promising biomarkers associated with BCG treatment response ...

Minimizing transmission loss using inspired ant colony optimization and Markov Chain Monte Carlo in underwater WSN environment

open access: yesJournal of Ocean Engineering and Science, 2019
In Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs), the most important challenging issues are propagation delay, high error probability, high latency, high communication cost, limited bandwidth, limited memory, low packet delivery ratio, and transmission ...
