Background: Infertility problem affects young couples. One of the known causes of spermatogenic disorder is chemotherapy in patients with cancer. Since dividing cells are mainly affected by anticancer drugs, the aim of the present study is to investigate the preventive effect of GnRH antagonist on spermatogenic cell apoptosis produced by anticancer drug. Materials and Methods: In the present st...

GloVe is an algorithm which associates a vector to each word such that the dot product of two words corresponds to the likelihood they appear together in a large corpus ([PSM14]). GloVe vectors achieve state-of-the-art performance on word analogy tasks (v(king) − v(man) + v(woman) ≈ v(queen)), but they are limited to capturing meanings of individual words. In our project, we develop “biGloVe,” ...

We introduce a new shrinkage variable selection operator for linear models which we term the adaptive ridge selector (ARiS). This approach is inspired by the relevance vector machine (RVM), which uses a Bayesian hierarchical linear setup to do variable selection and model estimation. Extending the RVM algorithm, we include a proper prior distribution for the precisions of the regression coeffic...
