On the Use of Nearest Neighbor Contingency Tables for Testing Spatial Segregation [PDF]
For two or more classes (or types) of points, nearest neighbor contingency tables (NNCTs) are constructed using nearest neighbor (NN) frequencies and are used in testing spatial segregation of the classes. Pielou's test of independence, Dixon's cell-specific, class-specific, and overall tests are the tests based on NNCTs (i.e., they are NNCT-tests ...

Unraveling the metastasis‐preventing effect of miR‐200c in vitro and in vivo
Advanced tumors and ineffective cancer treatments can lead to metastases in distant organs. The sole expression of microRNA 200c (miR‐200c) in breast cancer cells is shown to significantly reduce metastasis formation in xenograft mouse models. Various in vitro analyses revealed impeded migratory behavior, upon miR‐200c expression, as one prerequisite ...

A Method for Classifying Test Bench Configurations in a Scenario-Based Test Approach for Automated Vehicles [PDF]
The introduction of automated vehicles demands a way to prove their safe operation. However, validating the safety of automated vehicles is still an unsolved problem. While the scenario-based test approach seems to provide a possible solution, it requires the execution of a high amount of test cases.
