In genetic counseling for cancer risk, the probability of carrying a mutation of a cancer-causing gene plays an important role. Family history of various cancers is important in calculating this probability. BRCAPRO (Parmigiani et al. [1998] Am J Hum Genet 62:145-158) is a widely used software for c

This paper is to study source inversion and identification of hazardous gas dispersion in a three-dimensional urban area. An unsteady adjoint transportation model was adopted, and an advanced numerical scheme based on adaptive mesh refinement was used. A time-dependent concentration database over th
Many well-established statistical methods in genetics were developed in a climate of severe constraints on computational power. Recent advances in simulation methodology now bring modern, flexible statistical methods within the reach of scientists having access to a desktop workstation. We illustrat
