Dynamic Vaccine Allocation for Control of Human-Transmissible Disease by Mingdong Lyu, Chang Chang, Kuofu Liu, Randolph Hall

“…Our study develops a dynamic methodology for vaccine allocation, segmented by region, age, and timeframe, using a time-sensitive, age-structured compartmental model. Based on the objective of minimizing a weighted sum of deaths and cases, we used the Sequential Least Squares Quadratic Programming method to search for a locally optimal COVID-19 vaccine allocation for the United States, for the period from 16 December 2020 to 30 June 2021, where regions corresponded to the 50 states in the United States (U.S.). …”

Solar cells based on Sb2Se3 grown by chalcogenization of Sb thin films, using a novel designed furnace by Gerardo Gordillo, Oscar Torres, Alvaro I. Mendez, Julian C. Pena-Bermudez

“…The entire process was automatically controlled using algorithms developed in the LabView programming environment. Through a study of deposition conditions which included the effect of variables such as, furnace heating rate, final annealing target temperature, annealing time and partial pressure of H2+Ar mixture, conditions were found to grow single-phase Sb2S3 films with good structural, optical and morphological properties, which indicates that the Sb2S3 films prepared by the chalcogenisation routine developed in this work, can be used as an absorber layer in solar cells. …”

ARK: Aggregation of Reads by K-Means for Estimation of Bacterial Community Composition. by David Koslicki, Saikat Chatterjee, Damon Shahrivar, Alan W Walker, Suzanna C Francis, Louise J Fraser, Mikko Vehkaperä, Yueheng Lan, Jukka Corander

“…These methods typically rely on summarizing the sequence data by frequencies of low-order k-mers and matching this information statistically with a taxonomically structured database. Here we show that the accuracy of the resulting community composition estimates can be substantially improved by aggregating the reads from a sample with an unsupervised machine learning approach prior to the estimation phase. …”
