Development of a nano-adjuvant cancer vaccine and its evaluation for melanoma in combination with radiotherapy

Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the world and melanoma is the deadliest type of skin cancer. Although surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are still standard treatments, the discovery of the role played by the immune system in cancer has a ...

Lymphatic vessel density is associated with CD8(+) T cell infiltration and immunosuppressive factors in human melanoma

Melody Swartz, Manuel Andreas Fankhauser, Natacha Anne-Sophie Bordry, Maria Anna Sofia Broggi, Esther Danenberg, Timothy Murray, Olivier Michielin

Increased density of tumor-associated lymphatic vessels correlates with poor patient survival in melanoma and other cancers, yet lymphatic drainage is essential for initiating an immune response. Here we asked whether and how lymphatic vessel density (LVD) ...

Convergence Of Variance-Reduced Learning Under Random Reshuffling

Ali H. Sayed, Bicheng Ying, Kun Yuan

Several useful variance-reduced stochastic gradient algorithms, such as SVRG, SAGA, Finito, and SAG, have been proposed to minimize empirical risks with linear convergence properties to the exact minimizers. The existing convergence results assume uniform ...

Practical erasure codes for storage systems: The study of entanglement codes, an approach that propagates redundancy to increase reliability and performance

Verónica del Carmen Estrada Galiñanes

This dissertation deals with the design of practical erasure codes for storage systems. Hardware and logical disk failures are a common source of system failures that may lead to data loss. Nevertheless, it is predicted that spinning disks would remain the ...

Multi-index stochastic collocation convergence rates for random PDEs with parametric regularity

Fabio Nobile, Lorenzo Tamellini

We analyze the recent Multi-index Stochastic Collocation (MISC) method for computing statistics of the solution of a partial differential equation (PDE) with random data, where the random coefficient is parametrized by means of a countable sequence of term ...

Nematodynamics and random homogenization

Tudor Ratiu

We study the homogenization problem for the system of equations of dynamics of a mixture of liquid crystals with random structure. We consider a simplified form of the Ericksen-Leslie equations for an incompressible medium with inhomogeneous density with r ...

Two subtle convex nonlocal approximations of the BV-norm

Hoài-Minh Nguyên

Inspired by the BBM formula and by work of G. Leoni and D. Spector, we analyze the asymptotic behavior of two sequences of convex nonlocal functionals (Psi(n)(u)) and (Phi(n)(u)) which converge formally to the BV-norm of u. We show that pointwise convergen ...

On the Design of Economic NMPC Based on Approximate Turnpike Properties

Dominique Bonvin, Timm Faulwasser

We discuss the design of sampled-data economic nonlinear model predictive control schemes for continuous-time systems based on turnpike properties. In a recent paper we have shown that an exact turnpike property allows establishing finite-time convergence ...
