A High-Performance Inversion Framework for Brain Tumor Growth Models in Personalized Medicine
(2020)The precise characterization of aggressive brain tumors remains a challenging problem due to their highly heterogeneous radiographic and molecular presentation. The integration of mathematical models with clini- cal imaging ... -
Negative Gruneisen Parameters at High Pressure in FeTi from Density Functional Theory
(2020)Density functional theory (DFT) calculations are a pillar of modern materials physics and quantum chemistry research and the execution of DFT codes represent a significant fraction of the overall utilization of Texas ... -
Stochastic SIR-based Examination of the Policy Effects on the COVID-19 Spread in the U.S. States
(2020)Since the global outbreak of the novel COVID-19, many research groups have studied the epidemiology of the virus for short-term forecasts and to formulate the effective disease containment and mitigation strategies. The ... -
Statistical Perspectives in Teaching Deep Learning from Fundamentals to Applications
(2020)The use of Artificial Intelligence, machine learning and deep learning have gained a lot of attention and become increasingly popular in many areas of application. Historically machine learning and theory had strong ... -
Optimal Dynamic Treatment Regime by Reinfocement Learning in Clinical Medicine
(2020)Precision medicine allows personalized treatment regime for patients with distinct clinical history and characteristics. Dynamic treatment regime implements a reinforcement learning algorithm to produce the optimal ... -
Quantum Computation, Quantum Algorithms & Implications on Data Science
(2020)Quantum computing is a new revolutionary computing paradigm, first theorized in 1981. It is based on quantum physics and quantum mechanics, which are fundamentally stochastic in nature with inherent randomness and uncertainty. ... -
Using Ancestral Reconstruction of Chromosome Expression States (ARChES) to Understand the Evolution of Dosage Compensation
(2020)Ohno (1967) originally proposed that the sex difference in X-linked gene dose caused by the decay of Y-linked genes may impose a “peril of hemizygosity” and that regulatory mechanisms must compensate to make X=XX=AA at the ... -
Synthesizing Dense and Colored 3D Point Clouds for Training Deep Neural Networks
(2020)3D point clouds are a compact homogeneous representation that have the ability to cap- ture intricate details of the environment. They are useful for a wide variety of applications. For example, point clouds can be sampled ... -
Andromeda: A Few-body Plane Wave Calculator
(2020)At TACCSTER last year, a novel method of ours to solve the 3-body lithium problem was presented. Without finishing, the computation plateaued at -7.3 (of -7.4) Hartree on an L = 67 ^ 9 grid running on a single TACC Lonestar5 ... -
Loop Current Transport and Dispersal Dynamics in the Gulf of Mexico
(2020)Transport, connectivity, and dispersal both within and outside of the Gulf of Mexico impact important processes such as biological and pollutant dispersal. The Loop Current is a key flow feature within the Gulf of Mexico ... -
Quantitative Study of Unsaturated Transport of Glycerol through Aquaglyceroporin that has High Affinity for Glycerol
(2020)The structures of several aquaglyceroporins have been resolved to atomic resolution showing two or more glycerols bound inside a channel and confirming a glycerol-facilitator’s affinity for its substrate glycerol. However, ... -
uPredict: A User-Level Profiler-Based Predictive Framework in Multi-Tenant Clouds
(2020)Clouds have been adopted widely by many organizations for their supports of flexible resource demands and low cost, which is normally achieved through sharing the underlying hardware among multiple cloud tenants. However, ... -
Climate Change Impacts on Hurricane Storm Surge Inundation in the Coastal United States
(2020)The properties of hurricanes directly influence storm surges; however, the implications of climate change are unclear. Here, we simulate the storm surges of historical storms under present day and end of century climate ... -
Modeling Breast Cancer Patient, Communication and Treatment Factors in Discontinuation of Daily Adjuvant Treatment Over Time
(2020)Introduction. Despite the substantial survival benefit from daily oral endocrine therapy (ET) for estrogen receptor positive breast cancer, 50% of patients discontinue ET before completing 5 years. In order to identify ... -
Finding Expressed Mutations in Multiple Myeloma Cell Lines
(2020)Neoantigens are newly formed peptides created from somatic mutations that are capable of inducing tumor-specific T-cell recognition. Prediction of these neoantigens can lead to personalized immunotherapies for the treatment ... -
Detecting Structural Variants in Multiple Myeloma Cell Lines using Whole Exome Sequencing
(2020)Whole exome sequencing (WES) is a targeted sequencing technique that sequences only the protein-coding regions of the genome. As WES has superior cost- effectiveness when compared to whole genome sequencing (WGS), WES has ... -
TIP3P and TIP4P in Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Erythrocyte Aquaporins
(2020)Membrane protein simulation is vital for its vast implications in the study of biological processes. Because of this, curating the most accurate simulations that agree with in vitro experiments is of paramount importance. ... -
Unconditionally Stable Space-Time Finite Element Method for the Shallow Water Equations
(2020)We introduce the automatic variationally stable finite element (AVS-FE) method [1, 3] for the shallow water equations (SWE). The AVS-FE method uses a first order system integral formulation of the under- lying partial ...
