New aspect-oriented constructs for security hardening concerns by Mourad, Azzam

“…We find these pointcuts and primitives to be necessary because they are needed to perform many security hardening practices and, to the best of our knowledge, none of the existing ones can provide their functionalities. Moreover, we show the viability and correctness of the proposed pointcuts and primitives by elaborating and implementing their algorithms and presenting the result of explanatory case studies.…”

AGEomics Biomarkers and Machine Learning—Realizing the Potential of Protein Glycation in Clinical Diagnostics by Naila Rabbani (291722)

“…AGEomics biomarkers have been used in diagnostic algorithms using machine learning methods. In this review, I describe the utility of AGEomics biomarkers and provide evidence why these are close to the phenotype of a condition or disease compared to other metabolites and metabolomic approaches and how to train and test algorithms for clinical diagnostic and screening applications with high accuracy, sensitivity and specificity using machine learning approaches.…”

Integration of nonparametric fuzzy classification with an evolutionary-developmental framework to perform music sentiment-based analysis and composition by Abboud, Ralph

“…Unlike existing solutions, MUSEC is: (i) a hybrid crossover between supervised learning (SL, to learn sentiments from music) and evolutionary computation (for music composition, MC), where SL serves at the fitness function of MC to compose music that expresses target sentiments, (ii) extensible in the panel of emotions it can convey, producing pieces that reflect a target crisp sentiment (e.g., love) or a collection of fuzzy sentiments (e.g., 65% happy, 20% sad, and 15% angry), compared with crisp-only or two-dimensional (valence/arousal) sentiment models used in existing solutions, (iii) adopts the evolutionary-developmental model, using an extensive set of specially designed music-theoretic mutation operators (trille, staccato, repeat, compress, etc.), stochastically orchestrated to add atomic (individual chord-level) and thematic (chord pattern-level) variability to the composed polyphonic pieces, compared with traditional evolutionary solutions producing monophonic and non-thematic music. …”

Single-Cell Transcriptome Analysis Highlights a Role for Neutrophils and Inflammatory Macrophages in the Pathogenesis of Severe COVID-19 by Hibah Shaath (5599658)

“…Interestingly, although macrophages were also present in healthy subjects and patients with mild COVID-19, they had different gene signatures, indicative of interstitial and cluster-0 macrophage (i.e., FABP4, APOC1, APOE, C1QB, and NURP1). Additionally, MALAT1, NEAT1, and SNGH25 were downregulated in patients with mild and severe COVID-19. …”
