TLDR
In this article, log-transformed serological data (obtained from the hemagglutination-inhibition assay) exist in an effectively one-dimensional space, and computational methods are developed for accurately and efficiently recovering unmeasured serology data from a sample of measured data, and systematically minimizing noise found in the measured data.Abstract:
Two important challenges to the use of serological assays for influenza surveillance include the substantial amount of experimental effort involved, and the inherent noisiness of serological data. Here, informed by the observation that log-transformed serological data (obtained from the hemagglutination-inhibition assay) exist in an effectively one-dimensional space, computational methods are developed for accurately and efficiently recovering unmeasured serological data from a sample of measured data, and systematically minimizing noise found in the measured data. Careful application of these methods would enable the collection of better-quality serological data on a greater number of circulating influenza viruses than is currently possible, and improve the ability to identify potential epidemic/pandemic viruses before they become widespread. Although the focus here is on influenza surveillance, the described methods are more widely applicable.read more

TL;DR: Assays carried out quantitative measurement of virus receptor-binding using surface biolayer interferometry with haemagglutination inhibition (HI) assays to correlate changes in receptor avidity with antigenic properties show that viruses with egg-adaptive HA substitutions R156Q, S219Y, and I226N, have increased binding avidity to α2,3-linked receptor-analogues and decreased bindingAvidity to β-2,6-linked receptors.

Inference of genotype-phenotype relationships in the antigenic evolution of human influenza A (H3N2) viruses.
TL;DR: This work has developed a method for inferring ‘antigenic trees’ for the major viral surface protein hemagglutinin and identified both known and novel sites, and amino acid changes with antigenic impact in the evolution of influenza A (H3N2) viruses from 1968 to 2003.

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple and widely accepted multiple test procedure of the sequentially rejective type is presented, i.e. hypotheses are rejected one at a time until no further rejections can be done.

TL;DR: It is proved that one can perfectly recover most low-rank matrices from what appears to be an incomplete set of entries, and that objects other than signals and images can be perfectly reconstructed from very limited information.

TL;DR: The lack of similarity between the 2009 A(H1N1) virus and its nearest relatives indicates that its gene segments have been circulating undetected for an extended period as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: It is shown that the new swine-origin influenza A (H1N1) virus emerged in Mexico and the United States was derived from several viruses circulating in swine, and that the initial transmission to humans occurred several months before recognition of the outbreak.
