Poisson approximations for telecommunications networks [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Australian Mathematical Society. Series B. Applied Mathematics, 1991
Professor Andrew Barbour (Institut für Angewandte Mathematik, Universität Zürich) has pointed out to us that the conditional intensity specified on Page 356 of our paper is incorrect and, consequently, so too is the bound (14) and the expression on Page 358 for the variance of the conditional intensity, given by (15). This variance should be 0 if ω = 1,

Expectation Propagation for Poisson Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Poisson distribution arises naturally when dealing with data involving counts, and it has found many applications in inverse problems and imaging. In this work, we develop an approximate Bayesian inference technique based on expectation propagation ...

Two sufficient conditions for Poisson approximations in the ferromagnetic Ising model

open access: yes, 2008
A $d$-dimensional ferromagnetic Ising model on a lattice torus is considered. As the size of the lattice tends to infinity, two conditions ensuring a Poisson approximation for the distribution of the number of occurrences in the lattice of any given ...

Pre‐analytical optimization of cell‐free DNA and extracellular vesicle‐derived DNA for mutation detection in liquid biopsies

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pre‐analytical handling critically determines liquid biopsy performance. This study defines practical best‐practice conditions for cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and extracellular vesicle–derived DNA (evDNA), showing how processing time, storage conditions, tube type, and plasma input volume affect DNA integrity and mutation detection.

Stein's method and Poisson process approximation for a class of Wasserstein metrics

open access: yes, 2009
Based on Stein's method, we derive upper bounds for Poisson process approximation in the $L_1$-Wasserstein metric $d_2^{(p)}$, which is based on a slightly adapted $L_p$-Wasserstein metric between point measures.

Circulating tumor cell viability during and after radiotherapy mirrors treatment response in cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Radiotherapy (RT) response depends on the DNA repair capacity of tumor and host cells. We show that circulating tumor cell (CTC) counts and apoptosis rates before and after RT predict treatment response and outcome, which can be accessed via easily accessible liquid biopsy approaches. Created in BioRender. Wikman, H.

On Poisson Approximation

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical Probability
AbstractThe problem of evaluating the accuracy of Poisson approximation to the distribution of a sum of independent integer-valued random variables has attracted a lot of attention in the past six decades. Among authors who contributed to the topic are Prokhorov, Kolmogorov, LeCam, Shorgin, Barbour, Hall, Deheuvels, Pfeifer, Roos, and many others. From

Extremes for the inradius in the Poisson line tessellation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A Poisson line tessellation is observed within a window. With each cell of the tessellation, we associate the inradius, which is the radius of the largest ball contained in the cell.

A Prospective Study of Individuals at Risk of Multiple Sclerosis Informs the Design of Primary Prevention Studies

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective In multiple sclerosis, the optimal time for deploying a therapeutic intervention is before the central nervous system is damaged; given the success of trials treating the earliest stage of MS, the radiologically isolated syndrome, developing primary prevention strategies is an important next challenge.

On the Entropy of Sums of Bernoulli Random Variables via the Chen-Stein Method

open access: yes, 2012
This paper considers the entropy of the sum of (possibly dependent and non-identically distributed) Bernoulli random variables. Upper bounds on the error that follows from an approximation of this entropy by the entropy of a Poisson random variable with ...
