Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Macrophage‐based immunotherapy for solid tumors is limited by poor tracking of cell localization and persistence. This study introduces nanotagged macrophages enabling near‐infrared photoacoustic imaging for real‐time monitoring. IFNγ‐conjugated tags enhance antitumor polarization without harming viability.

BAYESIAN INFERENCE FOR THE HALF-NORMAL AND HALF-T DISTRIBUTIONS [PDF]
In this article we consider approaches to Bayesian inference for the half-normal and half-t distributions. We show that a generalized version of the normal-gamma distribution is conjugate to the half-normal likelihood and give the moments of this new ...

A Bayesian model for age at death with unequal adult mortality and cohort effects
GenusThe conventional approach to modeling age at death through parametric models often employs a three-component mixture as a standard. However, recognizing the need to more accurately reflect the diverse trends in old age mortality, this study introduces a ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Self‐invalidating multilayer physical unclonable functions (PUFs) integrate fingerprint‐like metal nanopattern bilayers from block copolymer templates with highly reactive reduced graphene oxide (rGO) interlayers. This tamper‐responsive architecture blocks all unauthorized physical and chemical replication attempts while autonomously deactivating ...

Log-Skew-Normal and Log-Skew-t Distributions as Models for Family Income Data
, 2002 The U.S. family income data for the years 1970, 1975, 1978, 1980, 1985 and 1990 was fitted using the log-normal, Gamma, Singh-Maddala, Dagum type I and generalized Beta of second kind distributions, among others in earlier publications.

Programmable Pneumatic Actuator System for a Bioinspired Artificial Colon
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A modular soft robotic colon simulator driven by programmable pneumatic actuation is developed to mimic physiological and pathological‐like motility patterns of the large intestine. Finite element–guided design and distributed control enable anatomically realistic deformation for peristalsis, segmentation, and mass movements, supporting capsule ...

A Note On Skew-Normal Distribution Approximation To The Negative Binomal Distribution
, 2011 This article revisits the problem of approximating the negative binomial distribution. Its goal is to show that the skew-normal distribution, another alternative methodology, provides a much better approximation to negative binomial probabilities than ...

TRIANGULAR MATRIX REPRESENTATIONS OF SKEW MONOID RINGS [PDF]
, 2010 Let R be a ring and S a u.p.-monoid. Assume that there is a monoid homomorphism α : S → Aut (R). Suppose that α is weakly rigid and lR(Ra) is pure as a left ideal of R for every element a ∈ R.

Construction and Applications of a Composite Model Based on Skew-Normal and Skew-t Distributions
EconometricsFinancial return distributions often exhibit central asymmetry and heavy-tailed extremes, challenging standard parametric models. We propose a novel composite distribution integrating a skew-normal center with skew-t tails, partitioning the support into ...

Modeling asymmetric compositional data
Acta Scientiarum: Technology, 2014 Compositional data belong to the simplex sample space, but they are transformed to the sample space of the real numbers using the additive log-ratio transformation to allow the application of standard statistical techniques.
