Outcome indistinguishability [PDF]
Prediction algorithms assign numbers to individuals that are popularly understood as individual "probabilities" -- what is the probability of 5-year survival after cancer diagnosis? -- and which increasingly form the basis for life-altering decisions. Drawing on an understanding of computational indistinguishability developed in complexity theory and ...

Neutrophils constitute a critical part of innate immunity and are well known for their ability to phagocytose and kill invading microorganisms. The microbicidal processes employed by neutrophils are highly effective at killing most ingested bacteria and fungi.

Characterization of the non-classical relation between measurement outcomes represented by non-orthogonal quantum states [PDF]
Quantum mechanics describes seemingly paradoxical relations between the outcomes of measurements that cannot be performed jointly. In Hilbert space, the outcomes of such incompatible measurements are represented by non-orthogonal states. In this paper, we investigate how the relation between outcomes represented by non-orthogonal quantum states differs

Background Classic Galactosemia (CG) is a rare, autosomal recessive condition. Newborn screening and a timely galactose-restricted diet can resolve acute symptoms and decrease fatalities, but significant chronic, progressive morbidities remain and ...

Background Classic Galactosemia is a rare, autosomal recessive disease in which galactose is not metabolized properly due to severe deficiency/absence of the galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT) enzyme, converting to an aberrant and toxic ...

Despite an increased focus and urgency for CE/CME professionals to effectively and systematically assess the impact of their educational interventions, the community has struggled to do so. This struggle is in large part due to the lack of a standardised

Assessing Outcome-to-Outcome Interference in Sibling Fixed Effects Models [PDF]
Sibling fixed effects (FE) models are useful for estimating causal treatment effects while offsetting unobserved sibling-invariant confounding. However, treatment estimates are biased if an individual's outcome affects their sibling's outcome. We propose a robustness test for assessing the presence of outcome-to-outcome interference in linear two ...
