Ranking the rankings

open access: yes, 2014
In een academische wereld die steeds competitiever wordt, willen we graag weten wat ‘de beste’ universiteit is. Verschillende rankings bedienen ons op onze wenken, waaronder Times Higher Education, Sjanghai, QS en Leiden. De kritiek op die lijsten is echter niet mals, ook omdat universiteiten graag selectief shoppen in de resultaten.

Nonnegative Rank vs. Binary Rank

open access: yesChic. J. Theor. Comput. Sci., 2016
Motivated by (and using tools from) communication complexity, we investigate the relationship between the following two ranks of a $0$-$1$ matrix: its nonnegative rank and its binary rank (the $\log$ of the latter being the unambiguous nondeterministic communication complexity).

Differential expression of cancer‐related genes supports prediction of poor response to first‐line treatments in T‐ALL pediatric patients with high minimal residual disease

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the present work, we have identified a transcriptional signature based on the differential expression of six genes (BCL2&MAST4, HSH2D&LAT2, METRN&PITPNM2) that would facilitate the early detection of T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T‐ALL) patients prone to a poor treatment response and could be implemented at diagnosis, along with other risk ...

CD47 promotes mitogen‐activated protein kinase and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition molecular programs to drive prometastatic phenotypes in non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Beyond its role in immune evasion, this study identified that CD47 drives tumor‐intrinsic signaling in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Transcriptomic profiling and functional studies revealed that CD47 regulates cell adhesion, migration, and metastasis through an ERK–EMT signaling axis.

On rank correlation and the distance between rankings [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 32nd international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval, 2009
Rank correlation statistics are useful for determining whether a there is a correspondence between two measurements, particularly when the measures themselves are of less interest than their relative ordering. Kendall's - in particular has found use in Information Retrieval as a "meta-evaluation" measure: it has been used to compare evaluation measures,
