2. 1. Inter-annual variability of rainfall in Central America : Connection with global and regional climate modulators

   Author : Tito Maldonado; Björn Claremar; Eric J. Alfaro; Jorge A. Amador; Michael Taylor; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Precipitation; climate variability; El Niño Southern Oscillation; Tropical North Atlantic; Canonical Correlation Analysis; EC-EARTH; Caribbean Low-Level Jet;

   Abstract : Central America is a region regularly affected by natural disasters, with most of them having a hydro-meteorological origin. Therefore, the understanding of annual changes of precipitation upon the region is relevant for planning and mitigation of natural disasters. READ MORE

4. 2. Computational Medical Image Analysis : With a Focus on Real-Time fMRI and Non-Parametric Statistics

   Author : Anders Eklund; Hans Knutsson; Mats Andersson; Stephen LaConte; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : functional magnetic resonance imaging; brain computer interfaces; canonical correlation analysis; random permutation test; graphics processing unit;

   Abstract : Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a prime example of multi-disciplinary research. Without the beautiful physics of MRI, there wouldnot be any images to look at in the first place. To obtain images of goodquality, it is necessary to fully understand the concepts of the frequencydomain. READ MORE

5. 3. A Treatise on Measuring Wiener-Granger Causality

   Author : Mehrdad Jafari-Mamaghani; Joanna Tyrcha; Sebastiano Stramaglia; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Wiener-Granger causality; Information theory; Kernel canonical correlation; Systems Microscopy; Cell migration.; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

   Abstract : Wiener-Granger causality is a well-established concept of causality based on stochasticity and the flow of time, with applications in a broad array of quantitative sciences. The majority of methods used to measure Wiener-Granger causality are based on linear premises and hence insensitive to non-linear signals. READ MORE

6. 4. Applications of Knowledge Discovery in Quality Registries - Predicting Recurrence of Breast Cancer and Analyzing Non-compliance with a Clinical Guideline

   Author : Amir Reza Razavi; Nosrat Shahsavar; Arie Hasman; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Breast cancer; Clinical guidelines; Canonical correlation analysis; Data Mining; Data pre-processing; Decision tree induction; Knowledge Discovery in Databases; Medical informatics; Medicinsk informatik;

   Abstract : In medicine, data are produced from different sources and continuously stored in data depositories. Examples of these growing databases are quality registries. In Sweden, there are many cancer registries where data on cancer patients are gathered and recorded and are used mainly for reporting survival analyses to high level health authorities. READ MORE

7. 5. Non-canonical TGFb signaling pathways in prostate cancer

   Author : Jie Song; Marene Landström; Staffan Strömblad; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : TGFβ; TβRI; TRAF6; ubiquitination; APPL1; p85; AKT; PKCζ;

   Abstract : Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in men in the Western world. Deregulation of transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) signaling pathway is frequently detected in prostate cancer and contributes to tumor growth, migration, and invasion. READ MORE
