A Survey on Error Exponents in Distributed Hypothesis Testing: Connections with Information Theory, Interpretations, and Applications

Author(s): Espinosa S; Silva JF; Céspedes S;

A central challenge in hypothesis testing (HT) lies in determining the optimal balance between Type I (false positive) and Type II (non-detection or false negative) error probabilities. Analyzing these errors' exponential rate of convergence, known as e ...

Social network dynamics, infant loss, and gut microbiota composition in female Colobus vellerosus during time periods with alpha male challenges

Author(s): Samartino S; Christie D; Penna A; Sicotte P; Ting N; Wikberg E;

The gut microbiota of group-living animals is strongly influenced by their social interactions, but it is unclear how it responds to social instability. We investigated whether social instability associated with the arrival of new males and challenges to th ...

The immunomodulatory effect of oral NaHCO3 is mediated by the splenic nerve: multivariate impact revealed by artificial neural networks

Author(s): Alvarez MR; Alkaissi H; Rieger AM; Esber GR; Acosta ME; Stephenson SI; Maurice AV; Valencia LMR; Roman CA; Alarcon JM; ...

Stimulation of the inflammatory reflex (IR) is a promising strategy for treating systemic inflammatory disorders. Recent studies suggest oral sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) as a potential activator of ...

CosSIF: Cosine similarity-based image filtering to overcome low inter-class variation in synthetic medical image datasets

Author(s): Islam M; Zunair H; Mohammed N;

Crafting effective deep learning models for medical image analysis is a complex task, particularly in cases where the medical image dataset lacks significant inter-class variation. This challenge is further aggravated when employing such datasets to generat ...

The role of frailty in the relationships between social relationships and health outcomes: a longitudinal study

Author(s): Fereshteh Mehrabi

CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that changes in social support have a protective and compensatory role in decreasing depressive symptoms and enhancing cognitive health among older adults with increasing frailty. Public health policy and strategies should ...

Heterogeneous dispersal networks to improve biodiversity science

Author(s): Savary P; Lessard JP; Peres-Neto PR;

Dispersal has a key role in shaping spatial patterns of biodiversity, yet its spatial heterogeneity is often overlooked in biodiversity analyses and management strategies. Properly parameterised heterogeneous dispersal networks capture the complex interplay ...

Energy scheduling for DoS attack over multi-hop networks: Deep reinforcement learning approach

Author(s): Yang L; Tao J; Liu YH; Xu Y; Su CY;

This paper studies the energy scheduling for Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack against remote state estimation over multi-hop networks. A smart sensor observes a dynamic system, and transmits its local state estimate to a remote estimator. Due to the limited c ...

Mutualistic coevolution and community diversity favour persistence in metacommunities under environmental changes

Author(s): Cosmo LG; Sales LP; Guimarães PR; Pires MM;

Linking local to regional ecological and evolutionary processes is key to understand the response of Earth's biodiversity to environmental changes. Here we integrate evolution and mutualistic coevolution in a model of metacommunity dynamics and use nume ...

Reinforcement learning for automatic quadrilateral mesh generation: A soft actor-critic approach

Author(s): Pan J; Huang J; Cheng G; Zeng Y;

This paper proposes, implements, and evaluates a reinforcement learning (RL)-based computational framework for automatic mesh generation. Mesh generation plays a fundamental role in numerical simulations in the area of computer aided design and engineering ...

Cancer Survivors' Evolving Perceptions of a New Supportive Virtual Program

Author(s): Robb A; Brown TL; Durand A; Loiselle CG;

This qualitative study begins to explore cancer survivors' evolving perceptions of "Focus on the Future," a 6-week supportive virtual program led by trained volunteers and health care professionals. Through purposive sampling, participants (n = 10) enro ...

A Review of Mathematical and Computational Methods in Cancer Dynamics

Author(s): Uthamacumaran A; Zenil H;

Cancers are complex adaptive diseases regulated by the nonlinear feedback systems between genetic instabilities, environmental signals, cellular protein flows, and gene regulatory networks. Understanding the cybernetics of cancer requires the integration of ...
