Graded Persistence Diagrams and Persistence Landscapes [PDF]
Discrete & Computational Geometry, 2021 We introduce a refinement of the persistence diagram, the graded persistence diagram. It is the Mobius inversion of the graded rank function, which is obtained from the rank function using the unary numeral system. Both persistence diagrams and graded persistence diagrams are integer-valued functions on the Cartesian plane.

Economics & Human Biology, 2021 We ask whether mortality from historical pandemics has any predictive content for mortality in the Covid-19 pandemic. We find strong persistence in public health performance. Places that performed worse in terms of mortality in the 1918 influenza pandemic also have higher Covid-19 mortality today.

Persister cells in Burkholderia thailandensis [PDF]
, 2016 Persister cells are able to survive in the presence of high concentrations of antibiotic, and re-grow once the antibiotic has been removed. Unlike conventional antibiotic resistance, the antibiotic tolerance of persister cells is due to phenotypic ...

Persistence and anti-persistence in treadmill walking [PDF]
Gait & Posture, 2021 Abstract Background Long-range persistent correlations in stride time (ST) and length (SL) are the fundamental traits of treadmill gait. Our recent work showed that the ST and SL time series’ statistical properties originated from the superposition of large-scale trends and small-scale fluctuations ...

Bacterial drug tolerance under clinical conditions is governed by anaerobic adaptation but not anaerobic respiration [PDF]
, 2014 Non-inherited antibiotic resistance is a phenomenon whereby a subpopulation of genetically identical bacteria displays phenotypic tolerance to antibiotics. We show that, compared to E. coli, the clinically relevant genus Burkholderia displays much higher

PERSISTENCE IN CONVERGENCE [PDF]
Macroeconomic Dynamics, 2013 In this paper, we examine the convergence hypothesis using a long memory framework that allows for structural breaks and does not rely on a benchmark country. We find that even though the long memory framework of analysis is much richer than the simple I(1)/I(0) alternative, a simple absolute divergence and rapid convergence dichotomy produced by the ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Background: Persisters are important reasons for persistent infections, and they can lead to antibiotic treatment failure in patients and consequently chronic infection.

Understanding Cancer Persister Cell Vulnerabilities and Mutagenesis [PDF]
, 2021 The landscape of cancer treatment options has grown to include more precise and less invasive strategies. However, acquired drug resistance often results in transient responses.

High Persister Mutants in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Mycobacterium tuberculosis forms drug-tolerant persister cells that are the probable cause of its recalcitrance to antibiotic therapy. While genetically identical to the rest of the population, persisters are dormant, which protects them from killing by ...
