Development and Application of a Data-Driven Signal Detection Method for Surveillance of Adverse Event Variability Across Manufacturing Lots of Biologics by Wilde, Joshua T., Springs, Stacy, Wolfrum, Jacqueline M., Levi, Retsef

“…Results Extensive method validation on simulated data indicated that HMMScan is able to correctly detect the presence or absence of variable manufacturing and supply chain conditions for contiguous sequences of 100 lots or more when changes in these conditions have a meaningful impact on AE rates. …”

Stable Rank-Adaptive Dynamically Orthogonal Runge–Kutta Schemes by Charous, Aaron, Lermusiaux, Pierre F. J.

“…In addition, we demonstrate that repeatedly applying retractions yields a gradient-descent algorithm on the low-rank manifold that converges superlinearly when approximating a low-rank matrix. When approximating a higher-rank matrix, iterations converge linearly to the best low-rank approximation. …”

Developing a portable, high-speed, low-cost desktop photoacoustic tomography imaging system by Kalva, Sandeep Kumar

“…The acquired PA data using this SUT is reconstructed conventionally using a simple delay-and-sum algorithm to obtain cross-sectional PA images. When this technique is employed for reconstruction, there will be blurring in tangential direction due to the effect of SUT aperture size, thereby, resulting in the degradation in quality (poor tangential resolution) of the PA images, especially when the target is far from the scanning center. …”
