Cancer, Volume 132, Issue 8, 15 April 2026.ABSTRACT Background Cancer biobank studies can inform the natural history of cancer and possibilities for earlier detection. The authors investigated the detectability of a cell‐free DNA methylation‐based cancer signal in biobanked plasma samples from the large American Cancer Society Cancer Prevention Study 3.

Comparison of response surface methodology and the Nelder and Mead simplex method for optimization in microsimulation models [PDF]
Microsimulation models are increasingly used in the evaluation of cancer screening. Latent parameters of such models can be estimated by optimization of the goodness-of-fit.

Experiences with a simplified microsimulation for the Dallas/Fort Worth area
, 1997 We describe a simple framework for micro simulation of city traffic. A medium sized excerpt of Dallas was used to examine different levels of simulation fidelity of a cellular automaton method for the traffic flow simulation and a simple intersection ...

International Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2012 Background: Physicians have difficulty to subjectively estimate the cardiovascular risk of their patients. Using an estimate of global cardiovascular risk could be more relevant to guide decisions than using binary representation (presence or absence) of
