Exploring Two Modified Ali-Mikhail-Haq Copulas and New Bivariate Logistic Distributions by Christophe Chesneau

“…The second copula offers another modeling option; it is exchangeable like the Ali-Mikhail-Haq copula, but it benefits from a broader range of negative dependence correlations and more adaptable tail dependence properties. For the two proposed copulas, we investigate their main characteristics, including quadrant dependence, copula density function, conditional copulas, couples of value generation, extended variants via standard copula schemes, comprehensive copula orders, and weighted harmonic mean copula transformations. …”

Type I and type III interferons drive redundant amplification loops to induce a transcriptional signature in influenza-infected airway epithelia. by Stefania Crotta, Sophia Davidson, Tanel Mahlakoiv, Christophe J Desmet, Matthew R Buckwalter, Matthew L Albert, Peter Staeheli, Andreas Wack

“…Interferons (IFNs) are a group of cytokines with a well-established antiviral function. They can be induced by viral infection, are secreted and bind to specific receptors on the same or neighbouring cells to activate the expression of hundreds of IFN stimulated genes (ISGs) with antiviral function. …”
