A Semi-Automated Approach for Information Extraction, Classification and Analysis of Unstructured Data [PDF]
In this paper, we show how Quantitative Narrative Analysis and simple Natural Language Processing techniques apply to the extraction and categorization of data in a sample case study of the Diary of the former President of the Italian Republic (PoR), Giorgio Napolitano. The Diary contains a record of all his institutional meetings. This information, if

Stable discovery of interpretable subgroups via calibration in causal studies [PDF]
Building on Yu and Kumbier's PCS framework and for randomized experiments, we introduce a novel methodology for Stable Discovery of Interpretable Subgroups via Calibration (StaDISC), with large heterogeneous treatment effects. StaDISC was developed during our re-analysis of the 1999-2000 VIGOR study, an 8076 patient randomized controlled trial (RCT ...

Synergistic effect of shear and ADP on platelet growth on ZTA and Ti6Al4V surfaces [PDF]
Continuous-flow ventricular assist devices (VADs) have been an increasingly common, life-saving therapy for advanced heart-failure patients, but elevate the risk of thrombosis due to a combination of non-physiological hemodynamics and synthetic biomaterials.
