Constructing portfolios using stable distributions: the case of S&P 500 sectors exchange-traded funds
(Elsevier BV, 2022-12)Portfolio construction is an important practical problem in finance. In the traditional approach, introduced by Markowitz, one assumes normally distributed returns and constructs a portfolio with a minimum risk (measured ... -
A clustering-based approach to automatic harmonic analysis: an exploratory study of harmony and form in Mozart’s piano sonatas
(Ubiquity Press, Ltd., 2022-10-13)We implement a novel approach to automatic harmonic analysis using a clustering method on pitch-class vectors (chroma vectors). The advantage of this method is its lack of top-down assumptions, allowing us to objectively ... -
DNA methylation meta-analysis confirms the division of the genome into two functional groups
(2022-05-16)Based on a meta-analysis of human genome methylation data, we tested a theoretical model in which aging is explained by the redistribution of limited resources in cells between two main tasks of the organism: its ... -
A critical bioenergetic switch is regulated by IGF2 during murine cartilage development
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2022-11-11)Long bone growth requires the precise control of chondrocyte maturation from proliferation to hypertrophy during endochondral ossification, but the bioenergetic program that ensures normal cartilage development is still ... -
Smartphone-based neuropsychological assessment in Parkinson's disease: feasibility, validity, and contextually driven variability in cognition
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2022-04)OBJECTIVES: The prevalence of neurodegenerative disorders demands methods of accessible assessment that reliably captures cognition in daily life contexts. We investigated the feasibility of smartphone cognitive assessment ... -
Plagiarism abatement with assignment templates
(Springer, 2022-11-07)The ubiquity of plagiarism sites has made it imperative that faculty change assignments every time they teach a course. However, this can be very time consuming. We describe a way to make such changes that consumes a ... -
Neuromarketing’s socioeconomic status and racial discrimination and lack of transparency
