A model-free approach to low-dose extrapolation.
Estimates of risk associated with exposure to low levels of carcinogenic substances present in the environment are generally obtained by linear extrapolation from higher exposure levels at which risks can be estimated directly. In this paper, we examine the scientific basis for the assumption of low-dose linearity in carcinogenic risk assessment and the different statistical methods that have b...
متن کاملA Solution to the Problem of Extrapolation in Car Following Modeling Using an online fuzzy Neural Network
Car following process is time-varying in essence, due to the involvement of human actions. This paper develops an adaptive technique for car following modeling in a traffic flow. The proposed technique includes an online fuzzy neural network (OFNN) which is able to adapt its rule-consequent parameters to the time-varying processes. The proposed OFNN is first trained by an growing binary tree le...
متن کاملPerspectivesin CancerResearch Human Tissues and Cells in Carcinogenesis Research1
A central problem of cancer research is the extrapolation of Carcinogenesis data and knowledge of Carcinogenesis mecha nisms from laboratory animals to humans and, within this heterogeneous population, extrapolation among individuals. An aspect of this problem is the difficulty associated with extrapolating from one level of biological organization to an other, i.e., from molecules to macromole...
متن کاملIssues and current applications of interspecies extrapolation of carcinogenic potency as a component of risk assessment.
The Life Sciences Research Office (LSRO) of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) is conducting this symposium under contract with the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN) of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA has requested information on the strengths and weaknesses of current interspecies extrapolation methods using metabolic and ph...
متن کاملExtrapolation of animal carcinogenicity data: limitations and pitfalls.
Laboratory-generated animal bioassay data often serve as the basis for estimating potential human cancer risk. However, there is no single procedure that has been universally accepted as the method of choice for extrapolating experimentally observed results to the low exposure levels that are generally of public health concern. All of the models proposed to date suffer from various limitations....
