AI Article Synopsis

Article Abstract

Wikipedia combines the power of AI solutions and human reviewers to safeguard article quality. Quality control objectives include detecting malicious edits, fixing typos, and spotting inconsistent formatting. However, no automated quality control mechanisms currently exist for mathematical formulae. Spell checkers are widely used to highlight textual errors, yet no equivalent tool exists to detect algebraically incorrect formulae. Our paper addresses this shortcoming by making mathematical formulae computable. We present a method that (1) gathers the semantic information surrounding the context of each mathematical formulae, (2) provides access to the information in a graph-structured dependency hierarchy, and (3) performs automatic plausibility checks on equations. We evaluate the performance of our approach on 6,337 mathematical expressions contained in 104 Wikipedia articles on the topic of orthogonal polynomials and special functions. Our system, [Formula: see text], verified 358 out of 1,516 equations as error-free. [Formula: see text] successfully translated 27% of the mathematical expressions and outperformed existing translation approaches by 16%. Additionally, [Formula: see text] achieved an F1 score of .495 for annotating mathematical expressions with relevant textual descriptions, which is a significant step towards advancing searchability, readability, and accessibility of mathematical formulae in Wikipedia. A prototype of [Formula: see text] and the semantically enhanced Wikipedia articles are available at: https://tpami.wmflabs.org.

Metabolomics data analysis includes, next to the preprocessing, several additional repetitive tasks that can however be heavily dataset dependent or experiment setup specific due to the vast heterogeneity in instrumentation, protocols, or also compounds/samples that are being measured. To address this, various toolboxes and software packages in Python or R have been and are being developed providing researchers and analysts with bioinformatic/chemoinformatic tools to create their own workflows tailored toward their specific needs. This chapter presents tools and example workflows for common tasks focusing on the functionality provided by R packages developed as part of the RforMassSpectrometry initiative.

The design and implementation of successful rotational flaps of the scalp remains a complex process. There are several described techniques, all of which are based on a two-dimension surface, absent consideration of the convexity, and thereby three-dimensional nature of the scalp. This has contributed to flaps that are either too small or unnecessarily large in a bid to compensate.

Although the fractional polynomials (FPs) can act as a concise and accurate formula for examining smooth relationships between response and predictors, modelling conditional mean functions observes the partial view of a distribution of response variable, as distributions of many response variables such as blood pressure (BP) measures are typically skew. Conditional quantile functions with FPs provide a comprehensive relationship between the response variable and its predictors, such as median and extremely high-BP measures that may be often required in practical data analysis generally. To the best of our knowledge, this is new in the literature.

This study investigates the critical impact of incipient sediment motion on sediment transport estimation and riverbed evolution prediction. In this research, we examine the effects of ice cover on the vertical distribution of flow velocity, establishing a mathematical relationship between the vertical average flow velocities in open channel and ice-covered flows. This leads to the derivation of a formula for incipient motion velocity under ice cover.

Compartmental Models Driven by Renewal Processes: Survival Analysis and Applications to SVIS Epidemic Models.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Department of Biostatistics, Data Science and Epidemiology, School of Public Health, Augusta University, 1120, 15th Street, Augusta, GA, 30912, USA.

Compartmental models with exponentially distributed lifetime stages assume a constant hazard rate, limiting their scope. This study develops a theoretical framework for systems with general lifetime distributions, modeled as transition rates in a renewal process. Applications are provided for the SVIS (Susceptible-Vaccinated-Infected-Susceptible) disease epidemic model to investigate the impacts of hazard rate functions (HRFs) on disease control.
