Drug Selection via Joint Push and Learning to Rank

Selecting the right drugs for the right patients is a primary goal of precision medicine. In this manuscript, we consider the problem of cancer drug selection in a learning-to-rank framework. We have formulated the cancer drug selection problem as to accurately predicting 1). the ranking positions of sensitive drugs and 2). the ranking orders among sensitive drugs in cancer cell lines based on ...

A monolithic integrated 18 Push - Push

A fully integrated single-ended output pushpush oscillator is realized using an advanced 0.2μm SiGe HBT process. Up to –5 dBm output power is achieved at 180 GHz using a technology with a transition frequency fT of 200 GHz and maximum oscillation frequency fMAX of 275 GHz. Preliminary phase noise measurements show a phase noise of less than –90 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset from the 180 GHz carrier.

The Big Push

We first demonstrate the extent to which purcha...
