ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary dysfunction and sleep abnormalities are common in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) and are associated with worse clinical outcomes. Whether spirometry abnormalities are associated with polysomnography (PSG) findings remains unclear.

Efficient Non-parametric Bayesian Hawkes Processes [PDF]
In this paper, we develop an efficient nonparametric Bayesian estimation of the kernel function of Hawkes processes. The non-parametric Bayesian approach is important because it provides flexible Hawkes kernels and quantifies their uncertainty.

ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

Approximate Kernel-Based Conditional Independence Tests for Fast Non-Parametric Causal Discovery
Constraint-based causal discovery (CCD) algorithms require fast and accurate conditional independence (CI) testing. The Kernel Conditional Independence Test (KCIT) is currently one of the most popular CI tests in the non-parametric setting, but many ...

Non Parametric Estimates of Option Prices Using Superhedging
We propose a new non parametric technique to estimate the CALL function based on the superhedging principle. Our approach does not require absence of arbitrage and easily accommodates bid/ask spreads and other market imperfections.

Uniform convergence rates and uniform adaptive estimation in mixtures of regressions [PDF]
In this thesis, we develop theoretical tools to examine estimators in non-parametric regression models in regard of uniform convergence rates and uniform adaptivity with respect to the smoothness of the parameter functions.

Germline TP53 Mutations Causing Diamond–Blackfan Anemia: A French Report
ABSTRACT Diamond–Blackfan anemia is a rare congenital erythroblastopenia typically caused by mutations in ribosomal protein genes. Recently, gain‐of‐function mutations in TP53 have been identified as a novel cause of Diamond–Blackfan anemia. We report two French patients who both harbored a heterozygous TP53 deletion (NM_000546.5: c.1077delA; p ...

Gaussian Control Barrier Functions: Non-Parametric Paradigm to Safety
Inspired by the success of control barrier functions (CBFs) in addressing safety, and the rise of data-driven techniques for modeling functions, we propose a non-parametric approach for online synthesis of CBFs using Gaussian Processes (GPs). A dynamical

ABSTRACT Background Survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often exhibit early deficits in muscle and movement competence, which can compromise long‐term health. Integrative neuromuscular training (INT), a multifaceted approach combining fundamental movement activities with strength exercises, may help address these deficits during ...

A Novel Non-Parametric Spatiotemporal Scan Statistic: An Application to Detect Disease Outbreaks
The majority of the widely used scan statistics are based on distributional assumptions. Contrary to the existing methods, with a new perspective in clustering, the Mann-Whitney Scan Statistic was introduced to detect clusters in continuous data indexed ...
