Quantamentals
In this chapter, we explore the considerably more challenging task of using fundamental data for generating trading signals, and the class of... -
Predicting Radiotherapy Patient Outcomes with Real-Time Clinical Data Using Mathematical Modelling
Longitudinal tumour volume data from head-and-neck cancer patients show that tumours of comparable pre-treatment size and stage may respond very...

Investigating the Influence of Growth Arrest Mechanisms on Tumour Responses to Radiotherapy
Cancer is a heterogeneous disease and tumours of the same type can differ greatly at the genetic and phenotypic levels. Understanding how these...

Syntenic Dimensions of Genomic Evolution
We compare several types of evolutionary divergence of synteny blocks: sequence level divergence of the genes in the block, loss of genes affecting... -
Automated Radiotherapy Treatment Planning Optimization: A Comparison Between Robust Optimization and Adaptive Planning
Radiotherapy treatments must guarantee a proper coverage of the volume to treat (Planning Target Volume—PTV) while sparing all the organs at risk... -
Cytokine storm mitigation for exogenous immune agonists
Cytokine storm is a life-threatening inflammatory response characterized by hyperactivation of the immune system. It can be caused by various...

Isotopes for Improving Hydrologic Modeling and Simulation of Watershed Processes
Lake water quality management is an important component of watershed protection and restoration. Hydraulic residence time (HRT) is a guiding... -
Introduction
Global oil trading is an example of a complex dynamic system, where everything depends on everything else, and system components communicate with... -
Adjustable robust treatment-length optimization in radiation therapy
Traditionally, optimization of radiation therapy (RT) treatment plans has been done before the initiation of RT course, using population-wide...

Mathematical Model of Rectification Process and Selection of the Separation Sequence for Multicomponent Mixtures
AbstractBased on the equations of thermodynamic balances, a model of a stationary non-equilibrium distillation process is proposed. It is shown that...

Neural Network Model for Estimating the Quality Indicators of Industrial Fractionator Products
AbstractFor industrial processes, an operational assessment and forecast of the main difficult-to-measure quality indicators of output streams are...

Probability Entanglement and Destructive Interference in Biased Coin Tossing
Some uncertainty about flip** a biased coin can be resolved from a sequence of the coin sides already shown. The side repeating probabilities... -
Predicting the spatial distribution of stable isotopes in precipitation using a machine learning approach: a comparative assessment of random forest variants
Stable isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen are important natural tracers with a wide variety of environmental applications (e.g., the exploration of the...

Combining field-modulating electroosmotic vortex and insulating post to manipulate particles based on dielectrophoresis
The dielectrophoretic technology has been one of the most frequently applied microfluidic technologies to manipulate particles. The way of a...

Temporal optimization of radiation therapy to heterogeneous tumour populations and cancer stem cells
External beam radiation therapy is a key part of modern cancer treatments which uses high doses of radiation to destroy tumour cells. Despite its...

Selective Transport of Suspending Micro-Particles in an Oscillating Fluid Through Micro-Channels
This paper analyzes the possibility to obtain selective transport of microparticles depending their size. The particles are suspended in a fluid... -
The Evolution of Tumour Composition During Fractionated Radiotherapy: Implications for Outcome
Current protocols for delivering radiotherapy are based primarily on tumour stage and nodal and metastases status, even though it is well known that...

The Tumor Invasion Paradox in Cancer Stem Cell-Driven Solid Tumors
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are key in understanding tumor growth and tumor progression. A counterintuitive effect of CSCs is the so-called tumor growth...
