Statistical methods and analyses in autoimmune diseases by Inshaw, J

“…</p> <p>Based on prior pancreas histology results, which showed cases diagnosed at &lt; 7 years have a distinct immune cell infiltration signature to those diagnosed at ≥ 13 years, I then predefined specific age-at-diagnosis groups, &lt; 7, 7-13 and ≥ 13, and restricted my analysis to examine only known T1D regions, thereby reducing the multiple testing adjustment required in genome-wide studies. Six alleles within the HLA region were more strongly associated in individuals diagnosed at &lt; 7 years compared to ≥ 13 years, as well as six regions outside the HLA. …”

Controls on present-day and future rainfall over southern Africa in coupled climate models by Munday, C

“…In the future projections, the model diversity in rainfall response is associated with differences in the large scale adjustment of the tropical atmosphere to warming. In models projecting the highest magnitude drying, the northern tropical oceans warm at a faster rate than the tropical mean (+0.5 K), and this is associated with enhanced subsidence and greater atmospheric stability over southern Africa. …”

LKAW: a robust watermarking method based on large kernel convolution and adaptive weight assignment by Zhang, Xiaorui, Jiang, Rui, Sun, Wei, Song, Aiguo, Wei, Xindong, Meng, Ruohan

“…Because the magnitude and convergence rates of each loss function are different, an adaptive loss weight assignment strategy is proposed to make the weights participate in the network training together and adjust the weight dynamically. Further, a high-frequency wavelet loss is proposed, by which the watermarking is restricted to only the low-frequency wavelet sub-bands, thereby enhancing the robustness of watermarking against image compression. …”
