Advanced Science, EarlyView.Compared to a healthy random nanofibrous fibronectin microenvironment, a fibrotic aligned nanofibrous fibronectin microenvironment employs a specific integrin, α5β1 integrin, to activate early pro‐fibrotic fibroblast behaviors and later fibrotic fibroblast tissue formation with cell/F‐actin alignment, α‐SMA expression, and cell‐driven aligned ...

Estimation of semiparametric stochastic frontiers under shape constraints with application to pollution generating technologies [PDF]
A number of studies have explored the semi- and nonparametric estimation of stochastic frontier models by using kernel regression or other nonparametric smoothing techniques. In contrast to popular deterministic nonparametric estimators, these approaches

Compact Tabletop Magnetic Resonance Elastography for Mapping Soft Tissue Viscoelasticity
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This work introduces a compact, low‐cost tabletop magnetic resonance elastography platform for high‐resolution viscoelastic mapping in soft‐tissue specimens. Using this method in human colorectal liver metastases, we demonstrate fully automated biomechanical profiling of treatment response and show that heterogeneity‐based metrics outperform ...

On using nonparametric approaches for precipitation estimation
ITM Web of Conferences, 2018 Nonparametric density estimation methods have been used for precipitation estimation for decades. The new approach for estimating the density proposed recently by Geenens and Wang appears to offer advantages over them as far as their behavior in the tail

Nonparametric Inference in Mixture Cure Models
Proceedings, 2018 A completely nonparametric method for the estimation of mixture cure models is proposed. Nonparametric estimators for the cure probability (incidence) and for the survival function of the uncured population (latency) are introduced.

Endogeneity in nonparametric and semiparametric regression models [PDF]
This paper considers the nonparametric and semiparametric methods for estimating regression models with continuous endogenous regressors. We list a number of different generalizations of the linear structural equation model, and discuss how two common ...
