The Variational Garrote [PDF]

open access: yesMachine Learning, 2013
In this paper, we present a new variational method for sparse regression using $L_0$ regularization. The variational parameters appear in the approximate model in a way that is similar to Breiman's Garrote model. We refer to this method as the variational Garrote (VG).

Forensic Facial Comparison: Current Status, Limitations, and Future Directions

open access: yesBiology, 2021
Global escalation of crime has necessitated the use of digital imagery to aid the identification of perpetrators. Forensic facial comparison (FFC) is increasingly employed, often relying on poor-quality images.

Holocene East Asian Summer Monsoon Variation Recorded by Sensitive Grain Size Component from the Pearl River-Derived Mud in the Northern South China Sea

open access: yesLithosphere, 2022
To better understand the environmental significance of sediment grain size in continental shelf of the South China Sea (SCS), we carried out a detailed grain size study of sediments from the YJ Core, derived from the mud deposits of the northern SCS ...

Consequences of anthropogenic activities and beach dynamics on vertical distribution of microplastics in the mid-intertidal sediments of Donghai Island, China

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2022
Microplastic accumulation and resulting degradation are significant threats to the coastal ecosystems around the world. Baseline information on microplastics and their sources is of great importance for a permanent waste management system.

Contrasting the Impacts of Intraseasonal Oscillations on Yangtze Precipitation during the Summer of 1998 and 2016

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
In 1998 and 2016, boreal summer intraseasonal oscillation (BSISO) could reach the middle-lower reaches of the Yangtze River basin (YRB), leading to extreme precipitation.

Variation in form versus variation in meaning [PDF]

open access: yesLingua, 2004
Abstract The aim of this introductory article is to provide a background to the articles contained in this special issue of Lingua that centers around variation in form, variation in meaning, and markedness. Theoretical and empirical considerations are brought together in this special issue in which the linguistic disciplines that are covered ...

Network-assisted analysis of GWAS data identifies a functionally-relevant gene module for childhood-onset asthma

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The number of genetic factors associated with asthma remains limited. To identify new genes with an undetected individual effect but collectively influencing asthma risk, we conducted a network-assisted analysis that integrates outcomes of genome-wide ...

Variational causal claims in epidemiology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The paper examines definitions of ‘cause’ in the epidemiological literature. Those definitions all describe causes as factors that make a difference to the distribution of disease or to individual health status.

Response of Total Suspended Sediment and Chlorophyll-a Concentration to Late Autumn Typhoon Events in the Northwestern South China Sea

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Strong typhoon winds enhance turbulent mixing, which induces sediment to resuspend and to promote chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) blooms in the continental shelf areas.
