Landslides triggered by the 12 January 2010 Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Mw = 7.0 earthquake: visual interpretation, inventory compiling, and spatial distribution statistical analysis [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2014 The 12 January 2010 Port-au-Prince, Haiti, earthquake (Mw= 7.0) triggered tens of thousands of landslides. The purpose of this study is to investigate the correlations of the occurrence of landslides and the thicknesses of their erosion with topographic,

Flexible distribution functions, higher-order preferences and optimal portfolio allocation [PDF]
, 2019 In this paper we show that flexible probability distribution functions, in addition to been able to capture stylized facts of financial returns, can be used to identify pure higher-order effects of investors' optimizing behavior.

Order Statistics Properties of the Two Parameter Lomax Distribution [PDF]
, 2015 In this paper we study the distribution of order statistics of the two parametric Lomax distribution. We consider the single and product moment of order statistics from Lomax distribution. Also, we establish some recurrence relation for single moments ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.This pilot study investigates the potential of Generative AI to provide formative feedback to students. ChatGPT was prompted to provide feedback on Year 1 Bioscience essays, which were evaluated against established good feedback practices. GenAI‐authored feedback had useful elements, but was limited in scope. GenAI may have potential to provide instant,

Elevated Connectivity During Language Processing Is Associated With Cognitive Performance in SeLECTS
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Self‐Limited Epilepsy with Centrotemporal Spikes (SeLECTS) is associated with language impairments despite seizures originating in the motor cortex, suggesting aberrant cross‐network interactions. Here we tested whether functional connectivity in SeLECTS during language tasks predicts language performance.

RNA Sequencing Resolves Cryptic Pathogenic Variants in Mitochondrial Disease
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Mitochondrial diseases are the most common inherited metabolic disorders, characterized by pronounced clinical and genetic heterogeneity that complicates molecular diagnosis. Although DNA‐based sequencing approaches have become standard in genetic testing, up to half of patients remain without a definitive diagnosis.

T1 Over Squared Proton Density Ratio to Characterize Multiple Sclerosis Lesions
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Differentiating remyelinated from demyelinated lesions in MS remains challenging without histological confirmation. This study introduces the T1‐to‐PD2 ratio (TPR) imaging approach and evaluates its ability to characterize MS lesions alongside other quantitative MRI (qMRI) metrics. Methods Thirty individuals with MS (mean age: 47.5 ±

Stage‐Specific Patterns of Imaging and Non‐Motor Biomarkers in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Advancements in disease‐modifying therapies for spinocerebellar ataxia Type 3 (SCA3) underscore the need for robust biomarkers to monitor disease progression and evaluate treatment efficacy. Although motor phenotypes have been well characterized, less is known about non‐motor and imaging‐based features across different disease stages.

Some limit behavior for linear combinations of order statistics [PDF]
, 2021 summary:In the present paper, we establish the moderate and large deviations for the linear combinations of uniform order statistics. As applications, the moderate and large deviations for the $k$-th order statistics from uniform distribution, Gini mean ...

Depth functions based on a number of observations of a random vector [PDF]
, 2007 We present two statistical depth functions given in terms of the random variable defined as the minimum number of observations of a random vector that are needed to include a fixed given point in their convex hull.
