Comparative Analysis of Islet Auto-Transplantation Outcome Classification Systems: Evaluating Concordance, Feasibility, and a Data-Driven Approach by Davide Catarinella, Paola Magistretti, Raffaella Melzi, Alessia Mercalli, Stefano Tentori, Chiara Gremizzi, Vera Paloschi, Simona Sala, Libera Valla, Francesca Aleotti, Sabrina Costa, Francesco De Cobelli, Francesco De Cobelli, Rossana Caldara, Lorenzo Piemonti, Lorenzo Piemonti

“…A standardized approach to assessing islet autotransplantation outcomes is crucial for evaluating graft function and guiding clinical decisions. This study compares the performance of existing classification systems—Milan, Minneapolis, Chicago, Leicester, Igls, and a novel Data-Driven approach—by evaluating their ability to differentiate transplant outcomes using metabolic and insulin secretion parameters. …”

The Modified Weibull–Fréchet Mixture distribution for enhanced econometric data modelling by I. O. Akalagboro, C. O. Aronu

“…The interpretability of the MWFM distribution is enhanced by its parameters, α and β, where α determines the shape of the distribution and β controls the scale parameter, facilitating meaningful inference and parameter estimation in statistical analysis. The objectives of the study include to: derive the probability density function (PDF) and cumulative density function (CDF) of the MWFM distribution to establish its mathematical foundation; determine the statistical properties of the MWFM distribution, including moments, skewness, and kurtosis; ascertain the reliability characteristics of the MWFM distribution, providing insights into its performance in modelling reliability and survival data; and compare, on a theoretical basis, the statistical properties of the MWFM distribution with existing distributions to highlight its unique features. …”

Performance optimization solutions for NFV data plane by Yukai HUANG, Jinkun GENG, Ruilin LING, Dan LI

“…In recent years,network function virtualization (NFV) is arousing concern widely from both academia and industry due to its flexible deployment and low cost.However,the performance bottleneck becomes increasingly distinctive and hinders the progress of NFV technology.The major factors were studied which could seriously affect the performance of NFV data plane.Firstly,an analysis was conducted on the causes for various kinds of performance overheads.Then,the optimization solutions were summarized to mitigate these overheads.Finally,a brief introduction was made on two types of architecture,which could significantly improve the performance of NFV data plane.…”
