author keywords: High dimension; Penalization; Sparsity; SVM; Variable selection
TL;DR: Comparison of the proposed new classification rule with ℓ1-SVM and other common methods show very promising performance, in that the proposed method leads to much leaner models without compromising misclassification rates, particularly for high-dimensional predictors. (via Semantic Scholar)

Quantifying volume reduction and peak flow mitigation for three bioretention cells in clay soils in northeast Ohio

SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT, 553, 83–95.

author keywords: Biohlter; Exfilrration; Internal water storage; Hydrology; Hydraulics; Flow duration
MeSH headings : Aluminum Silicates; Clay; Hydrology; Ohio; Soil / chemistry; Waste Disposal, Fluid / methods; Water Movements; Water Supply / statistics & numerical data
TL;DR: Three bioretention cells constructed in low permeability soils in northeast Ohio were monitored for non-winter quantification of inflow, drainage, ET, and exfiltration, and the inclusion of an internal water storage (IWS) zone allowed the three cells to reduce runoff by 59%, 42%, and 36% over the monitoring period, in spite of the tight underlying soils.

Profitability of Integrated Management of Fusarium Head Blight in North Carolina Winter Wheat

PHYTOPATHOLOGY, 106(8), 814–823.

By: C. Cowger n, R. Weisz n, C. Arellano n & P. Murphy n

MeSH headings : Agriculture / economics; Agriculture / methods; Fungicides, Industrial / economics; Fungicides, Industrial / pharmacology; Fusarium; Genetic Predisposition to Disease; North Carolina; Plant Diseases / genetics; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Trichothecenes; Triticum / genetics; Triticum / microbiology
TL;DR: Overall, the results indicated that cultivar resistance to FHB was important for profitability, an FHB-targeted fungicide expanded market options when risk was moderate or high, and the efficacy of fungicide decision-making is reduced by factors that limit the accuracy of risk forecasts.

Longitudinal Study of the Relationship among Craniocervical Morphology, Clinical Progression, and Syringomyelia in a Cohort of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels

JOURNAL OF VETERINARY INTERNAL MEDICINE, 30(4), 1090–1098.

By: S. Cerda-Gonzalez*, N. Olby n & E. Griffith n

author keywords: Atlantoaxial band; Chiari-like malformation; Dysesthesia; Neuropathic pain
MeSH headings : Animals; Atlanto-Axial Joint / diagnostic imaging; Atlanto-Axial Joint / pathology; Cohort Studies; Dog Diseases / diagnostic imaging; Dog Diseases / pathology; Dogs; Female; Humans; Longitudinal Studies; Magnetic Resonance Imaging / veterinary; Male; Pedigree; Severity of Illness Index; Surveys and Questionnaires; Syringomyelia / diagnostic imaging; Syringomyelia / pathology; Syringomyelia / veterinary
TL;DR: The morphology of the CCJ at initial imaging did not predict development of either new or worsened signs or syringomyelia by the time of re‐evaluation, and Craniocervical junction anomalies assessed in this study did not appear predictive of future clinical status or syringsomyelia in this cohort.

By: A. Beam, S. Ghosh* & J. Doyle*

author keywords: GPU; Hamiltonian Monte Carlo; MCMC; Multinomial regression
