Optimizing sampling design to deal with mist-net avoidance in Amazonian birds and bats [PDF]

, 2013
Mist netting is a widely used technique to sample bird and bat assemblages. However, captures often decline with time because animals learn and avoid the locations of nets. This avoidance or net shyness can substantially decrease sampling efficiency.

Skill set profile clustering: the empty K-means algorithm with automatic specification of starting cluster centers [PDF]

, 2010
While students’ skill set profiles can be estimated with formal cognitive diagnosis models [8], their computational complexity makes simpler proxy skill estimates attractive [1, 4, 6].

Clustering documents with active learning using Wikipedia [PDF]

, 2008
Wikipedia has been applied as a background knowledge base to various text mining problems, but very few attempts have been made to utilize it for document clustering. In this paper we propose to exploit the semantic knowledge in Wikipedia for clustering,

Consensus clustering and functional interpretation of gene-expression data [PDF]

, 2004
Microarray analysis using clustering algorithms can suffer from lack of inter-method consistency in assigning related gene-expression profiles to clusters.

Dealing with non-metric dissimilarities in fuzzy central clustering algorithms [PDF]

, 2008
Clustering is the problem of grouping objects on the basis of a similarity measure among them. Relational clustering methods can be employed when a feature-based representation of the objects is not available, and their description is given in terms of ...

The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Targeting transcription factors associated with hemoglobinopathies: Lessons from successful interventions and implications for cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the transcription factors, repressive chromatin‐modifying complexes, and epigenetic mechanisms that control fetal hemoglobin repression. Notably, many regulators of γ‐globin silencing also function in transcriptional and epigenetic networks that drive cancer, highlighting opportunities to translate advances in hemoglobinopathy ...

Clustering Method for categorical and Numeric Data sets [PDF]

, 2011
Many issues concerned with clustering process are due to large datasets involves. In clustering computation become expensive when there are large data sets involved and work efficiently when there is limited number of cluster with relatively small data ...
