Progress Towards Integrated Models of HCV Dynamics
… individuals. Lacking any known latent or integrated form, HCV must persist through ongoing RNA replication, immune evasion, and infection of naïve cells. HCV is a highly-studied virus, and many details of its life cycle have been worked out; however, much remains unknown. One thing lacking …

Enabling End-to-End Sensitivity Analysis of Integrated Models
… continue to grow in scale and complexity, integrated models are increasingly relied upon to inform early design decisions and support system-level verification. When ground testing of full-system configurations is infeasible, integrated models, including structural-thermal-optical …

Airline fleet assignment and schedule design : integrated models and algorithms
… of these legs. In most basic fleet assignment models, simplistic modeling of network effects and recapture leads to sometimes severe, miscalculations of revenues. Recapture occurs when some of the spilled passengers are re-accommodated on alternate itineraries in the system. In this …

Management of integrated product and process models through automated decomposition
… to assist participants in the design of complex integrated models for engineering design. The approach builds on the DOME (Distributed Object-based Modeling and Evaluation) framework, which is intended to facilitate the creation of integrated models by allowing groups of designers to link …

The Experiences of Athletes Rehabilitating From Season Ending Injuries and Their Perceived Value of Psychological Interventions: Three Case Studies
… factors, and physiological aspects) proposed in integrated models of injury rehabilitation (e.g., biopsychosocial) emerged in these narratives. These integrated models outline the dynamic and interrelated responses athletes have in response to injury and are the maps that practitioners treating …

Learning under differing training and test distributions
… make predictions on test data. Most predictive models are constructed under the assumption that the training data is governed by the exact same distribution which the model will later be exposed to. In practice, control over the data collection process is often imperfect. A typical scenario is …

Towards Precision Medicine: Characterizing and Predicting Antidepressant Remission Heterogeneity in Late-life Depression Using Genetic Data
… capacity of data-driven, machine learning models which integrate clinical and genome-wide data. Compared to baseline models using only clinical features, integrated models show decreased performance due to noise added by genetic features. Furthermore, integrated models do not achieve …

A multi-lineage in vitro mouse embryo model derived exclusively from mouse embryonic stem cells
… three fundamental lineages, many *in vitro* models have been developed to recapitulate various events of post-implantation development. Using only mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), the gastruloid model has been demonstrated to mimic basic body axis formation and aspects of gastrulation, …

Heterogeneity effects on flow and transport within a shallow fluvial aquifer
… at two scales using high resolution groundwater models. Heterogeneity effects on river loss were evaluated at the kilometer scale using stochastic, geostatistical models with grid cells on the order of several meters. It was found that river loss decreased directly with an increase in the extent …

Integrated modeling of optical performance for the Terrestrial Planet Finder structurally connected interferometer
… is a structurally connected interferometer. Integrated modeling of all aspects of the flight system is necessary to ensure that the stringent dynamic stability requirements imposed by the mission are met. The MIT Space Systems Laboratory has developed a suite of analysis tools known as DOCS …

Machine scheduling with changing processing times and rate-modifying activities
In classical scheduling models, it is normally assumed that the processing times of jobs are fixed. However, in the recent years, there has been a growing interest in models with variable processing times. Some of the common rationales provided for considering such models, is as follows: the …

Mitigating emissions and energy consumption for urban transportation networks : simulation-based signal control strategies
… detailed traveler behavior and network supply models. They represent individual vehicles and can therefore account for vehicle-specific technologies. These simulators can be coupled with instantaneous energy consumption and emissions models to yield detailed network-wide estimates of energy …

Development of an integrated BIM-enabled approach for construction progress monitoring
… in the construction industry, which need to be integrated for more effective progress monitoring and reporting. The use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is recognized as a highly suitable way of integrating cost and time data and many integrated models have been developed during …
