Predictive Efficiency for Simple Non-linear Models*

This paper demonstrates the use of exact predictive likelihood functions for simple non-linear models. A measure of predictive efficiency based on the concept of expected information loss is introduced as a way of comparing alternative prediction functions. It is shown that the predictive likelihood function minimizes expected information loss over a wide class of potential prediction functions...

Strategies to Reduce Bovine Tuberculosis Transmission

Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is a zoonotic disease caused by Mycobaterium bovis, and is transmissible to humans, wildlife and domestic livestock. In the northern Lower Peninsula of Michigan, white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) serve as a reservoir for the disease and pose a significant threat to domestic cattle and captive cervids. Scientists at USDA, APHIS, Wildlife Services, National Wild...

Nanomedicine for tuberculosis: Insights from animal models

Patient noncompliance to current tuberculosis (TB) therapy owing to multidrug administration daily leads to treatment failure and emergence of multidrug resistant and extensively drug resistant TB. To avoid the daily dosing, application of nanotechnology is the only viable solution by virtue of sustained release of drugs. Other potential advantages of the system include the possibility of selec...
