Body fluid identification using a targeted mRNA massively parallel sequencing approach - results of a EUROFORGEN/EDNAP collaborative exercise.

TL;DR: The results of this collaborative mRNA massively parallel sequencing (MPS) exercise support targeted mRNA sequencing as a reliable body fluid identification method that could be added to the repertoire of forensic MPS panels.
Journal ArticleDOI

A one-pass sequential Monte Carlo method for Bayesian analysis of massive datasets

TL;DR: The results indicate the proposed scheme delivers accurate parameter estimates while employing only a single pass through the data, as well as enabling a direct comparison with Ridgeway and Madigan (2002), namely a mixture model for Markov chains and Bayesian logistic regression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Compositional associations of time spent in sleep, sedentary behavior and physical activity with obesity measures in children.

TL;DR: It is suggested that changing the movement behavior composition by increasing MVPA and decreasing LIPA would be the most effective approach for improving obesity measures.
Journal ArticleDOI

A latent Gaussian model for compositional data with zeros

TL;DR: A latent Gaussian model for the analysis of compositional data which contain zero values is presented, based on assuming that the data arise from a (deterministic) Euclidean projection of a multivariate Gaussian random variable onto the unit simplex.
Journal ArticleDOI

Building a tephrostratigraphic framework for the Paleolithic of Central Anatolia, Turkey

TL;DR: In this article, the Central Anatolian Volcanic Province (CAVP) in Turkey preserves widespread deposits of Quaternary tephra, presently associated with a small but growing number of Paleolithic archaeological sites.

Problems of relative growth

Julian Huxley
TL;DR: This detailed study of the different rates of growth of parts of the body relative to the body as a whole represents Sir Julian Huxley's great contribution to analytical morphology, and it is still a basis for modern investigations in morphometrics and evolutionary biology.

Experiments with Mixtures: Designs, Models and the Analysis of Mixture Data

TL;DR: In this paper, the original Mixture Problem is described and models for exploring the Entire Simplex Factor Space are presented, including matrix algebra, least squares, and the analysis of variance.

New statistical methods for allometry with application to

TL;DR: In this paper, Mosimann et al. presented new statistical methods for the study of size and shape, and used these methods to study the morphology of red-winged blackbirds, Agelaius phoeniceus breeding in Florida.

Analysis of dispersion on a sphere

TL;DR: In this article, a series of approximate tests of significance is given for hypotheses about the precision constant K and the polar vector on a sphere, where 8' is the angle between the polar and observation vectors.
