Smoothing Parameter Selection in two Frameworks for Penalized Splines [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 2013
SummaryThere are two popular smoothing parameter selection methods for spline smoothing. First, smoothing parameters can be estimated by minimizing criteria that approximate the average mean-squared error of the regression function estimator. Second, the maximum likelihood paradigm can be employed, under the assumption that the regression function is a

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

The Impact of Smoothing Techniques on Vegetation Phenology Extraction: A Case Study of Inner Mongolia Grasslands

open access: yesAgronomy
The selection of data smoothing methods is one of the key steps in extracting land surface phenology parameters from time-series remote sensing data. However, existing studies often use default parameters for denoising the time-series data, neglecting ...

Semiparametric and Additive Model Selection Using an Improved Akaike Information Criterion [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
An improved AIC-based criterion is derived for model selection in general smoothing-based modeling, including semiparametric models and additive models. Examples are provided of applications to goodness-of-fit, smoothing parameter and variable selection ...

Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

Semiparametric Stepwise Regression to Estimate Sales Promotion Effects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Kalyanam and Shively (1998) and van Heerde et al. (2001) have proposed semiparametric models to estimate the influence of price promotions on brand sales, and both obtained superior performance for their models compared to strictly parametric modeling ...

Smoothing Parameter Selection and Alpha-Stable P-Adic Time Signals

open access: yesSignal Image Processing and Multimedia, 2023
The estimation of the spectral density of stable p-adic signals is already done. Such estimation is based on smoothing the periodogram by using a spectral window. The convergence rate of this estimator depends on bandwidth of spectral window (called the smoothing parameter).
