The mechanism(s) by which bacterial communities impact susceptibility to infectious diseases, such as HIV, and maintain female genital tract (FGT) health are poorly understood. Evaluation of FGT bacteria has predominantly been limited to studies of species abundance, but not bacterial function. We therefore sought to examine the relationship of bacterial community composition and function with ...

The prognostic value of minimal residual disease (MRD) measured by fusion-gene transcript (FGT) detection was investigated in 76 infants (aged ?1 year) with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) lysine methyltransferase 2A (KMT2A) rearrangements. Either at the end induction or later time-points, FGT-MRD-positivity associated poor outcome. after first consolidation high-risk block detected 46·5% e...

Intrinsic magnetic van der Waals (vdW) materials have attracted much attention, especially ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{3}{\mathrm{GeTe}}_{2}$ (FGT), which exhibits highly tunable properties. However, despite vast efforts, there are still several challenging issues to be resolved. Here, using a first-principles linear-response approach, we carry out comprehensive investigation of both bulk and monolayer FGT...

The study of many vision problems is reduced to the estimation of a probability density function from observations. Kernel density estimation techniques are quite general and powerful methods for this problem, but have a signi...cant disadvantage in that they are computationally intensive. In this paper we explore the use of kernel density estimation with the fast gauss transform (FGT) for prob...

Integer convolution can be effected, as is well known, via certain number-theoretical transforms. One particular transform, which we call a discrete Galois transform (DGT), can be used efficiently for either cyclic or negacyclic integer convolution. The DGT has the feature that, if an appropriate prime p for the field GF(p) be specified, the allowed power-of-two signal lengths can be quite larg...
