Pulmonary Dysfunction Is Associated With Sleep Study Abnormalities in Children With Sickle Cell Disease: A Multicenter Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary dysfunction and sleep abnormalities are common in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) and are associated with worse clinical outcomes. Whether spirometry abnormalities are associated with polysomnography (PSG) findings remains unclear.

Prevalence and Trajectory of Household Material Hardship Among Children With Advanced Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Families of children with advanced cancer living in poverty experience inferior outcomes including poor parent mental health and worse child quality of life. Household material hardship (HMH: food, housing, transportation, and/or utility insecurity) is a modifiable poverty exposure—and potential intervention target—that ...

An Energy-Based Similarity Measure for Time Series

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2007
A new similarity measure, called SimilB, for time series analysis, based on the cross-ΨB-energy operator (2004), is introduced. ΨB is a nonlinear measure which quantifies the interaction between two time series.

Maximally Consistent Sampling and the Jaccard Index of Probability Distributions

open access: yes, 2018
We introduce simple, efficient algorithms for computing a MinHash of a probability distribution, suitable for both sparse and dense data, with equivalent running times to the state of the art for both cases.

Financial Burden Associated With Hospitalisation Among Families of Childhood Brain Tumours in Australia

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

Cosine Similarity Measure According to a Convex Cost Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper, we describe a new vector similarity measure associated with a convex cost function. Given two vectors, we determine the surface normals of the convex function at the vectors.

A multiple-site similarity measure [PDF]

open access: yesBiology Letters, 2006
Abstract Similarity measures are among the most intuitive and common measures for comparing two or more sites, or samples, with respect to their species overlap. A restriction of similarity measures is that they are limited to pairwise comparisons even in a multiple-site study.

Decision Making Based on Some similarity Measures under Interval Rough Neutrosophic Environment [PDF]

open access: yesNeutrosophic Sets and Systems, 2015
This paper is devoted to propose cosine, Dice and Jaccard similarity measures of interval rough neutrosophic set and interval neutrosophic mean operator. Some of the properties of the proposed similarity measures have been established.
