Self-Similarity for the Tricorn
Experimental Mathematics, 2018 We discuss self-similar property of the tricorn, the connectedness locus of the anti-holomorphic quadratic family. As a direct consequence of the study on straightening maps by Kiwi and the author, we show that there are many homeomorphic copies of the Mandelbrot sets.

Growth of Self‐Similar Graphs [PDF]
Journal of Graph Theory, 2004 AbstractLocally finite self‐similar graphs with bounded geometry and without bounded geometry as well as non‐locally finite self‐similar graphs are characterized by the structure of their cell graphs. Geometric properties concerning the volume growth and distances in cell graphs are discussed. The length scaling factor ν and the volume scaling factor μ

Pediatric Idiopathic Multicentric Castleman Disease Is Often Severe But Responsive to Siltuximab
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a potentially fatal immunologic disorder marked by widespread lymphadenopathy and inflammation. Siltuximab, an interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) inhibitor, is the only FDA‐approved treatment for adult patients with iMCD.

Gait Recognition Using Image Self-Similarity
EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2004 Gait is one of the few biometrics that can be measured at a distance, and is hence useful for passive surveillance as well as biometric applications. Gait recognition research is still at its infancy, however, and we have yet to solve the fundamental ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Latino children are projected to make up nearly one‐third of United States (US) children by 2060, and many of their caregivers speak Spanish. Prior survey research has documented communication difficulties for Spanish‐speaking caregivers of children with cancer, but contemporary qualitative data are limited.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a recognized trigger of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP); however, its incidence and impact on disease course in children remain controversial. Therefore, we aimed to characterize the clinical course of pediatric patients with CMV‐associated ITP.

Cross-View Self-Similarity Using Shared Dictionary Learning for Cervical Cancer Staging
IEEE Access, 2019 Dictionary Learning (DL) has gained large popularity in solving different computer vision and medical image problems. However, to the best of our knowledge, it has not been used for cervical tumor staging.
