Determinants for Neoantigen Identification

All tumors accumulate genetic alterations, some of which can give rise to mutated, non-self peptides presented by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules and elicit T-cell responses.These immunogenic mutated peptides, or neoantigens, are foreign in nature and display Hat Accessories exquisite tumor specificity.The correlative evidence suggesting th

Basic Statistical Estimation Outperforms Machine Learning in Monthly Prediction of Seasonal Climatic Parameters

Machine learning (ML) has been utilized to predict climatic parameters, and many successes have been reported in the HALVA VANILLA literature.In this paper, we scrutinize the effectiveness of five widely used ML algorithms in the monthly prediction of seasonal climatic parameters using monthly image data.Specifically, we quantify the predictive per
