A "Trinitarian" Theology of Religions? An Augustinian Assessment of Several Recent Proposals
(2007-05-04)Contemporary theology is driven by a quest to make the doctrine of the Trinity “relevant” to a wide variety of concerns. Books and articles abound on the Trinity and personhood, the Trinity and ecclesiology, the Trinity ... -
A (0,2) Mirror Duality
We construct a class of exactly solved (0,2) heterotic compactifications, similar to the (2,2) models constructed by Gepner. We identify these as special points in moduli spaces containing geometric limits described by ... -

A 14-year-old in heart failure with multiple cardiomyopathy variants illustrates a role for signal-to-noise analysis in gene test re-interpretation.
(Clinical case reports, 2019-01)Variants of unknown significance in cardiomyopathic disease should be analyzed systematically based on the prevalence of the variant in the population compared to prevalence of disease, evidence that other variants in the ... -
A 3D Active Microwave Imaging System for Breast Cancer Screening
(2008-12-11)A 3D microwave imaging system suitable for clinical trials has been developed. The anatomy, histology, and pathology of breast cancer were all carefully considered in the development of this system. The central component ... -
A Balance Between Body Power And Electric Prosthesis For An Above Elbow Patient
(1993)Over the period of the last four years it has been possible to monitor in greater detail a pattern ofsupply of myoelectric prosthesis to patients within the Trent Region The pattem of supply of myoelectric prosthesis has ... -
A Bargaining Theory of the “Edwards’ Effect” in the 2007-8 Democratic Presidential Primary
(2009)2008’s Democratic Presidential Primary will go down as one of the most competitive races in recent history. Two candidates, Senators Barack Obama (Illinois) and Hillary Clinton (New York), fought a see-saw battle to obtain ... -
A baseline paleoecological study for the Santa Cruz Formation (late–early Miocene) at the Atlantic coast of Patagonia, Argentina
(Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2010-06)Coastal exposures of the Santa Cruz Formation (late-early Miocene, southern Patagonia, Argentina) between the Coyle and Gallegos rivers have been a fertile ground for recovery of Miocene vertebrates for more than 100 years. ... -
A basic-systems approach to autobiographical memory
(Current Directions in Psychological Science, 2005-04-01)Memory for complex everyday events involving vision, hearing, smell, emotion, narrative, and language cannot be understood without considering the properties of the separate systems that process and store each of these forms ... -
A Bayesian approach for individual-level drug benefit-risk assessment.
(Statistics in medicine, 2019-07)In existing benefit-risk assessment (BRA) methods, benefit and risk criteria are usually identified and defined separately based on aggregated clinical data and therefore ignore the individual-level differences as well as ... -
A Bayesian Approach to Graphical Record Linkage and Deduplication
(Journal of the American Statistical Association, 2016-10-01)© 2016 American Statistical Association.We propose an unsupervised approach for linking records across arbitrarily many files, while simultaneously detecting duplicate records within files. Our key innovation involves the ... -
A Bayesian Approach to Inferring Rates of Selfing and Locus-Specific Mutation.
(Genetics, 2015-11)We present a Bayesian method for characterizing the mating system of populations reproducing through a mixture of self-fertilization and random outcrossing. Our method uses patterns of genetic variation across the genome ... -
A Bayesian approach to joint analysis of multivariate longitudinal data and parametric accelerated failure time

A Bayesian Approach to Understanding Music Popularity
(2015-05-08)The Billboard Hot 100 has been the main record chart for popular music in the American music industry since its first official release in 1958. Today, this rank- ing is based upon the frequency of which a song is played ... -
A Bayesian Dirichlet-Multinomial Test for Cross-Group Differences
(2016)Testing for differences within data sets is an important issue across various applications. Our work is primarily motivated by the analysis of microbiomial composition, which has been increasingly relevant and important ... -
A Bayesian Forward Simulation Approach to Establishing a Realistic Prior Model for Complex Geometrical Objects
(2018)Geology is a descriptive science making itself hard to provide quantification. We develop a Bayesian forward simulation approach to formulate a realistic prior model for geological images using the Approximate Bayesian ...
