Mass models of galaxy clusters from a non-parametric weak-lensing reconstruction
The Open Journal of AstrophysicsWe study the CLASH sample of galaxy clusters using a new deprojection method for weak gravitational lensing observations. This method is non-parametric, allowing us to infer mass profiles, or equivalently circular velocities, without having to assume a ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.LUNAR is a liver‐specific long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that is highly expressed in normal liver but becomes epigenetically silenced in hepatocellular carcinoma through promoter hypermethylation. Loss of LUNAR is associated with NOTCH activation, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and metastasis, whereas restoring LUNAR restrains metastatic progression ...

Multivariate Interval-Censored Survival Data: Parametric, Semi-parametric and Non-parametric Models
, 2014 Interval censoring means that an event time is only known to lie in an interval (L,R], with L the last examination time before the event, and R the first after.

Pharmacological chromatin remodeling enhances response to estrogen therapy in ER+ breast cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Estrogen therapy elicits clinical benefit in ~ 30% of patients with endocrine‐resistant estrogen receptor (ER)‐positive breast cancer. Based on findings that ER transcriptional activation underlies response to estrogen therapy, we tested the effects of epigenetic dysregulation via pharmacological inhibition of histone deacetylases (HDACi).

Efficient Estimation of Copula-based Semiparametric Markov Models [PDF]
This paper considers efficient estimation of copula-based semiparametric strictly stationary Markov models. These models are characterized by nonparametric invariant (one-dimensional marginal) distributions and parametric bivariate copula functions ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Partial inhibition of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) can paradoxically promote tumor growth, rather than simply producing a weaker antitumor effect than that observed with strong FAK suppression. In breast cancer and melanoma models, targeting p110δ PI3K, particularly in macrophages, counteracted these tumor‐promoting effects, highlighting the importance ...

Quantile Non‑parametric Additive Models
Acta Universitatis Lodziensis. Folia Oeconomica, 2019 Quantile regression allows us to assess different possible impacts of covariates on different quantiles of a response variable. Additive models for quantile functions provide an attractive framework for non‑parametric regression applications focused on functions of the response instead of its central tendency. Total variation smoothing penalties can be
