Skew-Normality in Stochastic Frontier Analysis [PDF]
, 2004 Skewness is an intrinsic characteristic in Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA), where it is used as a measure of technical inefficiency. We discuss the use of skew normality in SFA. We consider stochastic frontier analysis in the common setting Normal + Truncated Normal with uncorrelated errors, as well as the case with correlated errors.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The cell‐autonomous roles of interferon type 1 vary based on duration and intensity. While acute, robust signaling results in cancer cell cytotoxic effects, sustained, low‐level signaling is associated with tumor‐promoting effects. This review summarizes current research of IFN‐1 in cancer and within the clinical setting, with an emphasis on female ...

Screening Routine Clinical Notes for Epilepsy Surgery Candidates Using Large Language Models
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Epilepsy surgery is severely underutilized despite proven efficacy, with substantial under‐referral of eligible patients in routine clinical practice. This study evaluated the potential role of large language models (LLMs) as decision‐support tools for screening unstructured clinical notes to identify epilepsy surgery candidates and ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Building machine‐readable vocabularies for materials science is slow, expert‐driven work. This study benchmarks 13 large language models on two of its first steps: finding candidate terms in engineering articles and deciding where they belong in a class hierarchy.
