Feature selection based on mutual information criteria of max-dependency, max-relevance, and min-redundancy
Feature selection is an important problem for pattern classification systems. We study how to select good features according to the maximal statistical dependency criterion base...
Symbolic Interactionism: Perspective and Method.
This is a collection of articles dealing with the point of view of symbolic interactionism and with the topic of methodology in the discipline of sociology. It is written by the...
Tumor Angiogenesis: Therapeutic Implications
THE growth of solid neoplasms is always accompanied by neovascularization. This new capillary growth is even more vigorous and continuous than a similar outgrowth of capillary s...
VSEARCH: a versatile open source tool for metagenomics
Background VSEARCH is an open source and free of charge multithreaded 64-bit tool for processing and preparing metagenomics, genomics and population genomics nucleotide sequence...

Mendelian randomization with invalid instruments: effect estimation and bias detection through Egger regression
An adaption of Egger regression (which we call MR-Egger) can detect some violations of the standard instrumental variable assumptions, and provide an effect estimate which is no...
Complex heatmaps reveal patterns and correlations in multidimensional genomic data
Abstract Summary: Parallel heatmaps with carefully designed annotation graphics are powerful for efficient visualization of patterns and relationships among high dimensional gen...
