Variable selection for support vector machines in moderately high dimensions
JOURNAL OF THE ROYAL STATISTICAL SOCIETY SERIES B-STATISTICAL METHODOLOGY, 78(1), 53–76.
author keywords: Local linear approximation; Non-convex penalty; Oracle property; Support vector machines; Ultrahigh dimensions; Variable selection
TL;DR:
It is proved that, in ultrahigh dimensions, there is one local minimizer to the objective function of non‐convex penalized SVMs having the desired oracle property and the local linear approximation algorithm is guaranteed to converge to the oracle estimator even in the ultrahigh dimensional setting if an appropriate initial estimator is available.

Size Distributions of Bioaerosols in an Egg Production Facility and Its Vicinity
ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING SCIENCE, 33(4), 215–223.
author keywords: size distribution; animal feeding operation; bacteria; bioaerosol; fungi
TL;DR:
It was discovered that in-house bacterial particle size distributions (PSDs) were different among seasons, and under higher temperature and lower relative humidity conditions, more bacteria were associated with the small size ranges.

Periconceptional Heat Stress of Holstein Dams Is Associated with Differences in Daughter Milk Production during Their First Lactation
PLOS ONE, 11(2).
MeSH headings : Animals; Cattle; Female; Fertilization / physiology; Hot Temperature / adverse effects; Lactation / physiology; Milk / metabolism; Pregnancy; Seasons; Stress, Physiological / physiology
TL;DR:
Overall however, heat stress at the time of conception is associated with lower milk production during the first lactation, and this association does not prove cause and effect, but does provide justification for additional investigation into whether heat stress around thetime of conception results in long-term, detrimental consequences for the conceptus.

Frequency and Predictors of Internal Mammary Artery Graft Failure and Subsequent Clinical Outcomes Insights From the Project of Ex-vivo Vein Graft Engineering via Transfection (PREVENT) IV Trial
CIRCULATION, 133(2), 131–138.
author keywords: coronary artery bypass; mammary arteries
MeSH headings : Aged; Cardiac Catheterization; Cardiovascular Agents / therapeutic use; Combined Modality Therapy; Comorbidity; Coronary Angiography; Coronary Disease / diagnostic imaging; Coronary Disease / drug therapy; Coronary Disease / surgery; Coronary Restenosis / diagnostic imaging; Coronary Restenosis / epidemiology; Diabetes Complications / epidemiology; Diabetes Complications / surgery; Double-Blind Method; Female; Graft Occlusion, Vascular / epidemiology; Humans; Internal Mammary-Coronary Artery Anastomosis / adverse effects; Internal Mammary-Coronary Artery Anastomosis / statistics & numerical data; Kaplan-Meier Estimate; Male; Middle Aged; Multicenter Studies as Topic; Myocardial Infarction / epidemiology; Postoperative Complications / mortality; Proportional Hazards Models; Randomized Controlled Trials as Topic; Reoperation; Treatment Failure
TL;DR:
IMA failure was common and associated with higher rates of repeat revascularization, and patients with intermediate LAD stenosis or with an additional bypass graft to the diagonal branch had increased risk for IMA failure, raising concerns about competitive flow and the benefit of coronary artery bypass grafting in intermediate L AD stenosis without functional evidence of ischemia.

ASYMPTOTICS FOR CHANGE-POINT MODELS UNDER VARYING DEGREES OF MIS-SPECIFICATION
ANNALS OF STATISTICS, 44(1), 153–182.
author keywords: Change-point; model mis-specification
TL;DR:
It is found that the limiting regime depends on how quickly the alternatives approach a change-point model, and a family of 'intermediate' limits that can transition, at least qualitatively, to the limits in the two extreme scenarios are unraveled.
