On a Characterization of a Power Distribution

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 2015
A measure of dependence called pseudo-covariance and related to covariance was proposed by Pawlas and Szynal [4]. It was used, among other things, in a characterization of a power distribution. Here we generalized that result.

On the Use of the Cumulative Distribution Function for Large-Scale Tolerance Analyses Applied to Electric Machine Design

open access: yesStats, 2020
In the field of electrical machine design, excellent performance for multiple objectives, like efficiency or torque density, can be reached by using contemporary optimization techniques.

DNA methylation and expression of MAPRE3 affect overall survival of early‐stage non‐small cell lung cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Both cg12821679MAPRE3 methylation and MAPRE3 expression are significantly associated with overall survival (OS) of non‐small cell lung cancer. Meanwhile, MAPRE3 expression significantly modified the effect of smoking cessation on OS. Smoking cessation benefits OS merely for patients with high MAPRE3 expression.

Incremental Quantiles Estimators for Tracking Multiple Quantiles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, we investigate the problem of estimating multiple quantiles when samples are received online (data stream). We assume that we are dealing with a dynamical system, i.e. the distribution of the samples from the data stream changes with time.

Developmental programmes drive cellular plasticity, disease progression and therapy resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.

Tumor B‐cell infiltration in platinum‐treated advanced muscle‐invasive urothelial carcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Bladder tumors with higher pretreatment memory B‐cell infiltration were linked to longer survival after cisplatin chemotherapy, but not carboplatin. These tumors also showed more organized immune structures (tertiary lymphoid structures) and a shared pro‐inflammatory B‐cell‐rich community, suggesting that memory B cells may help identify patients most ...

A Quantile Functions-Based Investigation on the Characteristics of Southern African Solar Irradiation Data

open access: yesMathematical and Computational Applications, 2023
Exploration of solar irradiance can greatly assist in understanding how renewable energy can be better harnessed. It helps in establishing the solar irradiance climate in a particular region for effective and efficient harvesting of solar energy ...

Systemic dysregulation of apolipoproteins in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis serum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease that damages motor neurons. This study found that people with ALS show significant changes in blood fats and the proteins that carry them. Several apolipoproteins were higher, lipid balances were altered, and normal protein–lipid relationships were disrupted.

Prior elicitation and variable selection for bayesian quantile regression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.Bayesian subset selection suffers from three important difficulties: assigning priors over model space, assigning priors to all components of the regression

Quantile-oriented global sensitivity analysis of design resistance

open access: yesJournal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2019
The article investigates the application of a new type of global quantile-oriented sensitivity analysis (called QSA in the article) and contrasts it with established Sobol’ sensitivity analysis (SSA). Comparison of QSA of the resistance design value (0.1
