    Notes: Abstract We present an algorithm for the on-line learning of linear functions which is optimal to within a constant factor with respect to bounds on the sum of squared errors for a worst case sequence of trials. The bounds are logarithmic in the number of variables. Furthermore, the algorithm is shown to be optimally robust with respect to noise in the data (again to within a constant factor).

    Notes: Abstract The majority of results in computational learning theory are concerned with concept learning, i.e. with the special case of function learning for classes of functions with range {0, 1}. Much less is known about the theory of learning functions with a larger range such as ℕ or ℝ. In particular relatively few results exist about the general structure of common models for function learning, and there are only very few nontrivial function classes for which positive learning results have been exhibited in any of these models. We introduce in this paper the notion of a binary branching adversary tree for function learning, which allows us to give a somewhat surprising equivalent characterization of the optimal learning cost for learning a class of real-valued functions (in terms of a max-min definition which does not involve any “learning” model). Another general structural result of this paper relates the cost for learning a union of function classes to the learning costs for the individual function classes. Furthermore, we exhibit an efficient learning algorithm for learning convex piecewise linear functions from ℝ d into ℝ. Previously, the class of linear functions from ℝ d into ℝ was the only class of functions with multidimensional domain that was known to be learnable within the rigorous framework of a formal model for online learning. Finally we give a sufficient condition for an arbitrary class $$\mathcal{F}$$ of functions from ℝ into ℝ that allows us to learn the class of all functions that can be written as the pointwise maximum ofk functions from $$\mathcal{F}$$ . This allows us to exhibit a number of further nontrivial classes of functions from ℝ into ℝ for which there exist efficient learning algorithms.

    Notes: Abstract We solve an open problem of Maass and Turán, showing that the optimal mistake-bound when learning a given concept class without membership queries is within a constant factor of the optimal number of mistakes plus membership queries required by an algorithm that can ask membership queries. Previously known results imply that the constant factor in our bound is best possible. We then show that, in a natural generalization of the mistake-bound model, the usefulness to the learner of arbitrary “yes-no” questions between trials is very limited. We show that several natural structural questions about relatives of the mistake-bound model can be answered through the application of this general result. Most of these results can be interpreted as saying that learning in apparently less powerful (and more realistic) models is not much more difficult than learning in more powerful models.

    Notes: Abstract We show that a $$\frac{{c \in ^3 }}{{{\text{VCdim(}}\mathcal{F}{\text{)}}}}$$ bound on the rate of drift of the distribution generating the examples is sufficient for agnostic learning to relative accuracy ∈, where c 〉 0 is a constant; this matches a known necessary condition to within a constant factor. We establish a $$\frac{{c \in ^2 }}{{{\text{VCdim(}}\mathcal{F}{\text{)}}}}$$ sufficient condition for the realizable case, also matching a known necessary condition to within a constant factor. We provide a relatively simple proof of a bound of $$O(\frac{1}{{_ \in 2}}({\text{VCdim(}}\mathcal{F}{\text{)}}$$ + $$\log \frac{1}{\delta }))$$ on the sample complexity of agnostic learning in a fixed environment.

    Description: Pig organs may offer a solution to the shortage of human donor organs for transplantation, but concerns remain about possible cross-species transmission of porcine endogenous retrovirus (PERV). Samples were collected from 160 patients who had been treated with various living pig tissues up to 12 years earlier. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and protein immunoblot analyses were performed on serum from all 160 patients. No viremia was detected in any patient. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 159 of the patients were analyzed by PCR using PERV-specific primers. No PERV infection was detected in any of the patients from whom sufficient DNA was extracted to allow complete PCR analysis (97 percent of the patients). Persistent microchimerism (presence of donor cells in the recipient) was observed in 23 patients for up to 8.5 years.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Paradis, K -- Langford, G -- Long, Z -- Heneine, W -- Sandstrom, P -- Switzer, W M -- Chapman, L E -- Lockey, C -- Onions, D -- Otto, E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1999 Aug 20;285(5431):1236-41.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Imutran Ltd.

    Description: Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is a member of Picornaviridae and is a causative agent of recent outbreaks of respiratory illness in children in the United States. We report here the crystal structures of EV-D68 and its complex with pleconaril, a capsid-binding compound that had been developed as an anti-rhinovirus drug. The hydrophobic drug-binding pocket in viral protein 1 contained density that is consistent with a fatty acid of about 10 carbon atoms. This density could be displaced by pleconaril. We also showed that pleconaril inhibits EV-D68 at a half-maximal effective concentration of 430 nanomolar and might, therefore, be a possible drug candidate to alleviate EV-D68 outbreaks.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4307789/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4307789/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Liu, Yue -- Sheng, Ju -- Fokine, Andrei -- Meng, Geng -- Shin, Woong-Hee -- Long, Feng -- Kuhn, Richard J -- Kihara, Daisuke -- Rossmann, Michael G -- AI11219/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R24 GM111072/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37 AI011219/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- RR007707/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2015 Jan 2;347(6217):71-4. doi: 10.1126/science.1261962.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Sciences, Hockmeyer Hall of Structural Biology, 240 South Martin Jischke Drive, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907, USA. ; Department of Biological Sciences, Hockmeyer Hall of Structural Biology, 240 South Martin Jischke Drive, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907, USA.
