Noise Variance Estimation In Signal Processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We present a new method of estimating noise variance. The method is applicable for 1D and 2D signal processing. The essence of this method is estimation of the scatter of normally distributed data with high level of outliers. The method is applicable

Sex, Diet, and the Social Environment: Factors Influencing Hair Cortisol Concentration in Free-Ranging Black Bears (Ursus americanus). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Increasingly, measures of glucocorticoid levels (e.g., cortisol), key components of the neuroendocrine stress axis, are being used to measure past hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) activity to index psychological and physiological stress exhibited by ...

Chronological Age Prediction: Developmental Evaluation of DNA Methylation-Based Machine Learning Models

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Epigenetic clock, a highly accurate age estimator based on DNA methylation (DNAm) level, is the basis for predicting mortality/morbidity and elucidating the molecular mechanism of aging, which is of great significance in forensics, justice, and social ...

Robust Estimation for a Generalised Ratio Model

open access: yesAustrian Journal of Statistics, 2021
It is known that data such as business sales and household income need data transformation prior to regression estimate as the data has a homoscedastic error. However, data transformations make the estimation of mean and total unstable.

Unbiased Instrumental Variables Estimation Under Known First-Stage Sign [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We derive mean-unbiased estimators for the structural parameter in instrumental variables models with a single endogenous regressor where the sign of one or more first stage coefficients is known.

Confidence intervals for median absolute deviations [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in statistics. Simulation and computation, 2019
The median absolute deviation (MAD) is a robust measure of scale that is simple to implement, easy to interpret and often reported as a measure of dispersion when data is skewed. However, confidence intervals either for a single MAD or for the comparison

Unraveling the Molecular Mechanisms of Glioma Recurrence: A Study Integrating Single‐Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Glioma recurrence severely impacts patient prognosis, with current treatments showing limited efficacy. Traditional methods struggle to analyze recurrence mechanisms due to challenges in assessing tumor heterogeneity, spatial dynamics, and gene networks.
