Discovering topic structures of a temporally evolving document corpus [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 In this paper we describe a novel framework for the discovery of the topical content of a data corpus, and the tracking of its complex structural changes across the temporal dimension. In contrast to previous work our model does not impose a prior on the rate at which documents are added to the corpus nor does it adopt the Markovian assumption which ...

Oxysterols in Vascular Cells and Role in Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Implication of Oxysterols and Phytosterols in Aging and Human
Diseases, 1440, Springer International Publishing, pp.213-229, 2024, Advances
in Experimental Medicine and BiologyAtherosclerosis is a major cardiovascular complication of diseases associated with elevated oxidative stress such as type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. In these situations, low density lipoproteins (LDL) undergo oxidation. Oxidized LDL display proatherogenic activities through multiple and complex mechanisms which lead to dysfunctions of vascular ...
