Abstract A major challenge in the analysis of DNA methylation (DNAm) data is variability introduced read more from intra-sample cellular heterogeneity, such as whole blood which is a convolution of DNAm profiles across a unique cell type.When this source of variability is confounded with an outcome of interest, if unaccounted for, false positives e

The increasing share of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar generation, has a direct impact on the planning and operation of power systems.In addition, the consideration of risk criteria within the decision support tools used by market participants (generation companies, energy services companies, and arbitrageurs) is viqua-f4 becoming

A micro-fiber-optic Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) is proposed and demonstrated experimentally for ultrasonic imaging of seismic physical models.The device consists of a micro-bubble followed by the end click here of a single-mode fiber (SMF).The micro-structure is formed by the discharging operation on a short segment of hollow-core fiber (HCF)

Feature selection is an effective approach to reduce the number of features of data, which enhances the performance of classification in machine learning.In this paper, we formulate a joint feature selection problem to reduce the number of the selected features while enhancing the accuracy.An improved binary particle swarm optimization (IBPSO) algo

Considering the characteristics of carbonate reservoirs in the Middle East, a low-viscosity microemulsion acid that can be prepared on site and has an appropriate retardation ability was developed.It was compared with four conventional acid systems (hydrochloric acid, gelled acid, emulsified acid and surfactant acid) through experiments of rotating
