Quantile regression has emerged as a powerful tool in survival analysis as it directly links the quantiles of patients' survival times to their demographic and genomic profiles, facilitating the identification of important prognostic factors. In view of limited work on variable selection in the context, we develop a new adaptive-lasso-based variable selection procedure for quantile regression w...

Low-rank approximation is commonly used to scale kernel-based algorithms to large-scale applications containing as many as several million instances. We introduce a new family of algorithms based on mixtures of Nyström approximations, ensemble Nyström algorithms, that yield more accurate kernel approximations than the standard Nyström method. We present extensive empirical results on data sets ...

OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was (1) to compare early results of transobturator tape (TOT) implantation in women with lower and higher Valsalva leak point pressure (VLPP) and (2) to find out significant and independent prognostic factors of TOT implantation. MATERIAL AND METHODS 97 female patients (pts) underwent TOT implantation between March 2004 and September 2007. We observed preoperat...
