In multiple testing problems where the components come from a mixture model of noise and true effect, we seek to first test for the existence of the non-zero components, and then identify the true alternatives under a fixed significance level α. Two ...
Diatoms are diverse and widespread freshwater Eukaryotes that make excellent microbial subjects for addressing questions in metacommunity ecology. In the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica, the simple trophic structure of glacier-fed streams provides an ide ...
Objectives : This study aimed to examine associations between mood disorders and cognitive impairments with environmental neighborhood attributes and evaluate their effects on brain plasticity. Setting: Lausanne and Outskirts. Methods: Multiscale and simpl ...
The conventional nonparametric tests in survival analysis, such as the log-rank test, assess the null hypothesis that the hazards are equal at all times. However, hazards are hard to interpret causally, and other null hypotheses are more relevant in many s ...
During the last twenty years, Random matrix theory (RMT) has produced numerous results that allow a better understanding of large random matrices. These advances have enabled interesting applications in the domain of communication. Although this theory can ...
The Internet of Things creates opportunities to develop data-driven design methodologies for smart cities. However, effects rather than causes are often measured in complex urban systems, requiring robust data-interpretation methodologies. Additionally, ef ...
How do neurons orchestrate behaviour? Let us trace our footsteps back to one of the first hypotheses proposing an alliance between the brain and behaviour. This article trace Donald Hebb's life, and how, in the neurophysiology milieu of the 20th century, h ...
The project of the industrial modern city comprises many heterogeneous paths and stories, in particular those regarding the CIAM (Congres Internationaux d'Architecture Moderne) Functional City. They all come together in a discourse that links the architect ...
Algorithms are now routinely used to make consequential decisions that affect human lives. Examples include college admissions, medical interventions or law enforcement. While algorithms empower us to harness all information hidden in vast amounts of data, ...
Recent studies demonstrated that the performance of InGaN/GaN quantum well (QW) light emitting diodes (LEDs) can be significantly improved through the insertion of an InGaN underlayer (UL). The current working hypothesis is that the presence of the UL redu ...
