Cost effective reproduction number based strategies for reducing deaths from COVID-19

Christopher Thron, Vianney Mbazumutima, Luis V. Tamayo, Léonard Todjihounde • Journal of Mathematics in Industry (2021)

Abstract In epidemiology, the effective reproduction number R e $R_{e}$ is used to characterize the growth rate of an epidemic outbreak. If R e > 1 $R_{e} >1$ , the epidemic worsens, and if R e < 1 $R_{e}< 1$ , then it subsides and eventual...

The PPLD has advantages over conventional regression methods in application to moderately sized genome-wide association studies.

Veronica J Vieland, Sang-Cheol Seok • PLoS ONE (2021)

In earlier work, we have developed and evaluated an alternative approach to the analysis of GWAS data, based on a statistic called the PPLD. More recently, motivated by a GWAS for genetic modifiers of the X-linked Mendelian disorder Duchenn...

Matching robot appearance and behavior to tasks to improve human-robot cooperation

Jennifer Leah Goetz, Sara B. Kiesler, Aaron Powers • IEEE RO-MAN (2004)

A robot's appearance and behavior provide cues to the robot's abilities and propensities. We hypothesize that an appropriate match between a robot's social cues and its task improve the people's acceptance of and cooperation with the robot....

Robots and Firms

Michael Koch, Ilya Manuylov, Marcel Smolka • The Economic Journal (2021)

Abstract We study the microeconomic implications of robot adoption using a rich panel data set of Spanish manufacturing firms over a 27-year period (1990–2016). We provide causal evidence on two central questions: (1) Which firm characteris...
