Environmental RNA applications and their associated gene targets for management and conservation
Environmental DNA, 2023 Environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis is now a widely‐used tool to non‐invasively monitor a variety of organisms. However, eDNA applications are limited with respect to gaining information on population demography and the status of individuals within a ...

The value of monitoring to control evolving populations [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015 SignificanceEvolution of drug resistance, as observed in bacteria, viruses, parasites, and cancer, is a key challenge for global health. We approach the problem using the mathematical concepts of stochastic optimal control to study what is needed to control evolving populations.

Domain-adapted Gaussian mixture models for population-based structural health monitoring
Journal of Civil Structural Health Monitoring, 2022 Transfer learning, in the form of domain adaptation, seeks to overcome challenges associated with a lack of available health-state data for a structure, which severely limits the effectiveness of conventional machine learning approaches to structural ...
