Modelling the length of time spent in an unemployment state in South Africa

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2018
The deteriorating global economic conditions have worsened the unemployment situation, especially among the youth in sub-Saharan Africa. Structural factors such as the length of time spent in unemployment and job sustainability have a considerable effect

Fast Non-parametric Action Recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this work we propose a method for action recognition which needs no intensive learning stage, and achieves state-of-the-art classification performance. Our work is based on a method presented in the context of image classification. Unlike that method, our approach is well-suited for working with large real-world problems, thanks to an efficient ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Genomic Selection for Drought Tolerance Using Genome-Wide SNPs in Maize

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Traditional breeding strategies for selecting superior genotypes depending on phenotypic traits have proven to be of limited success, as this direct selection is hindered by low heritability, genetic interactions such as epistasis, environmental-genotype

Non-parametric 3D Shape Warping [PDF]

open access: yes2010 20th International Conference on Pattern Recognition, 2010
A method is presented for non-rigid alignment of a source shape to a target shape through estimating and interpolating point-wise correspondences between their surfaces given as point clouds. The resulting mapping can be non-smooth and non-isometric, relate shapes across large variations, and find partial matches. It does not require a parametric model

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Parametric and non-parametric species delimitation methods result in the recognition of two new Neotropical woody bamboo species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Neotropical woody bamboo genus Otatea is one of five genera in the subtribe Guaduinae. Of the eight described Otatea species, seven are endemic to Mexico and one is also distributed in Central and South America.

On Two-Stage Non-Parametric Estimation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1963
Abstract : A two-sample, two-stage non-parametric estimation problem is studied. The parameter phi phi(F, G) under consideration is estimable (i.e., there exists an unbiased estimator which is a function of independent observations from two populations with cumulative distribution functions F(X) and G(Y). (Hence, it is called a two-sample problem.) The
