ABSTRACT It is of substantial scientific interest to detect mediators that lie in the causal pathway from an exposure a survival outcome. However, with high‐dimensional mediators, as often encountered modern genomic data settings, there lack powerful methods can provide valid post‐selection inference for identified marginal mediation effect. To resolve this challenge, we develop procedure maximally selected natural indirect effect using semiparametric efficient influence function approach....

A simple yet practical antenna structure composed of a regular half-wavelength dipole with coupling arms is presented. Adjustment the amount to main through physical dimensions enables operation in either dual-band or wideband mode. Omni-directional radiation patterns can be achieved for both modes. The proposed has been implemented mid- and upper-bands WiMAX system. Good agreement between simulation measurement results observed.

Numerous breast cancer patients who achieve an initial response to HER-targeted therapy rapidly develop resistance within one year, leading treatment failure. Observations from clinical samples indicate that such correlates with increase in Src, EGFR, and PI3K/Akt activities a decrease PTEN activity. Furthermore, Akt survival signaling activation is also found tumors treated by toxic chemotherapeutic agents. Because cotreatment PI3K inhibitor promising strategy delay acquired preventing...

As NAND flash memory has become a major choice of storage media in diversified computing environments, the performance issue been extensively addressed many excellent designs. Among them, an effective strategy is to adopt multiple channels and flash-memory chips improve on data accesses. However, degree access parallelism cannot be increased by simply increasing number device, because it seriously limited maximum current constraint bus interface affected patterns user data. consequence,...

Diffusion models have demonstrated significant promise in various generative tasks; however, they often struggle to satisfy challenging constraints. Our approach addresses this limitation by rethinking training-free loss-guided diffusion from an optimization perspective. We formulate a series of constrained optimizations throughout the inference process model. In each optimization, we allow sample take multiple steps along gradient proxy constraint function until can no longer trust proxy,...

Accelerated thermal cycling (ATC) test, though time-consuming, is currently the most widely used reliability test for electronic components. However, a much faster mechanical bend often adopted as an alternative ATC test. But it general guideline that results are meaningful only if stresses applied on components either same or identical to those found in stress machines were just purposes material machines. Normally, could apply half of full cycles (from heating cooling) not even dwell time...
