Information Theory Estimators for the First-Order Spatial Autoregressive Model

open access: yesEntropy, 2012
Information theoretic estimators for the first-order spatial autoregressive model are introduced, small sample properties are investigated, and the estimator is applied empirically. Monte Carlo experiments are used to compare finite sample performance of

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.

Reducing the bias of the maximum likelihood estimator for the Poisson regression model [PDF]

open access: yes
We derive expressions for the first-order bias of the MLE for a Poisson regression model and show how these can be used to adjust the estimator and reduce bias without increasing MSE.

Pre‐analytical optimization of cell‐free DNA and extracellular vesicle‐derived DNA for mutation detection in liquid biopsies

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pre‐analytical handling critically determines liquid biopsy performance. This study defines practical best‐practice conditions for cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and extracellular vesicle–derived DNA (evDNA), showing how processing time, storage conditions, tube type, and plasma input volume affect DNA integrity and mutation detection.

"Empirical Likelihood-Based Inference in Conditional Moment Restriction Models" [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper proposes an asymptotically efficient method for estimating models with conditional moment restrictions. Our estimator generalizes the maximum empirical likelihood estimator (MELE) of Qin and Lawless (1994).

Various methods of estimating constant-partially accelerated life tests of the Odd Kappa-Exponential distribution based on complete data

open access: yesResults in Engineering
This study aims to address a central issue in continuous partially accelerated life testing for complete failure data by developing and comparing eight estimating methods for the two-parameter Odd Kappa-Exponential distribution, which features a flexible

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Geodesic distances in the maximum likelihood estimator of intrinsic dimensionality

open access: yesNonlinear Analysis, 2011
While analyzing multidimensional data, we often have to reduce their dimensionality so that to preserve as much information on the analyzed data set as possible. To this end, it is reasonable to find out the intrinsic dimensionality of the data.

Large Deviations and Berry–Esseen Inequalities for Estimators in Nonlinear Nonhomogeneous Diffusions

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2007
Bounds on the large deviations probability of the maximum likelihood estimator and regular Bayes estimators, and Berry–Esseen type bound for the suitably normalized maximum likelihood estimator of a parameter appearing nonlinearly in the nonhomogeneous ...

Somatic mutational landscape in von Hippel–Lindau familial hemangioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The causes of central nervous system (CNS) hemangioblastoma in Von Hippel–Lindau (vHL) disease are unclear. We used Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) on familial hemangioblastoma to investigate events that underlie tumor development. Our findings suggest that VHL loss creates a permissive environment for tumor formation, while additional alterations ...
