Abstract We investigate multiple testing and variable selection using the Least Angle Regression (LARS) algorithm in high dimensions under assumption of Gaussian noise. LARS is known to produce a piecewise affine solution path with change points referred as knots path. The key our results an expression closed form exact joint law $K$-tuple conditional on variables selected by LARS, so-called po...

On Tuesday 28 June 2011, Lars Haaheim tragically died whilst on a fishing trip in a fjord near his summer home in Sveio, Norway. Lars was an internationally renowned influenza scientist and a founder member of the International Society for Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses (isirv). From his formative academic years at the University of Bergen, Lars was an influenza enthusiast. He speciali...

The American Cancer Society estimated that 39,610 new cases of rectal cancer were diagnosed in the United States in 2015. Surgery is the primary treatment for rectal cancer, with the majority of patients undergoing sphincter-preserving surgery with low anterior resection. Although low anterior resection can prevent patients from having a permanent colostomy, bowel dysfunction may occur in 60% t...

As ever-larger knowledge bases (KBs) are being built, knowledge sharing becomes an aspect of paramount importance in Knowledge Base Management Systems (KBMSs). In this paper, we propose a way of controlling knowledge sharing by means of the LARS (Locks using Abstraction Relationships’ Semantics) approach for concurrency control in KBs. LARS synchronizes transactions through many different granu...

Understanding the variations of streamflow of rivers is an important prerequisite for designing hydraulic structures as well as managing surface water resources in basins. An overview of the impact of climate change on the streamflow in the Hablehroud River, the main river of a semi-arid basin in north-central Iran, is provided. Using the LARS-WG statistical downscaling model, the outputs of Ha...

The LArge-scale Reservoir Simulator (LARS) has been previously developed to study hydrate dissociation in hydrate-bearing systems under in-situ conditions. In the present study, a numerical framework of equations state describing formation at equilibrium conditions elaborated and integrated with flow transport simulator investigate multi-stage experiment undertaken LARS. A verification implemen...
