  • Hierarchical Bayesian modeling for knowledge transfer across engineering fleets via multitask learning
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering. - : Wiley. - 1093-9687 .- 1467-8667. ; 38:7, s. 821-848

    • A population-level analysis is proposed to address data sparsity when building predictive models for engineering infrastructure. Utilizing an interpretable hierarchical Bayesian approach and operational fleet data, domain expertise is naturally encoded (and appropriately shared) between different subgroups, representing (1) use-type, (2) component, or (3) operating condition. Specifically, domain expertise is exploited to constrain the model via assumptions (and prior distributions) allowing the methodology to automatically share information between similar assets, improving the survival analysis of a truck fleet (15% and 13% increases in predictive log-likelihood of hazard) and power prediction in a wind farm (up to 82% reduction in the standard deviation of maximum output prediction). In each asset management example, a set of correlated functions is learnt over the fleet, in a combined inference, to learn a population model. Parameter estimation is improved when subfleets are allowed to share correlated information at different levels in the hierarchy; the (averaged) reduction in standard deviation for interpretable parameters in the survival analysis is 70%, alongside 32% in wind farm power models. In turn, groups with incomplete data automatically borrow statistical strength from those that are data-rich. The statistical correlations enable knowledge transfer via Bayesian transfer learning, and the correlations can be inspected to inform which assets share information for which effect (i.e., parameter). Successes in both case studies demonstrate the wide applicability in practical infrastructure monitoring, since the approach is naturally adapted between interpretable fleet models of different in situ examples.

  • The Silicon Trypanosome: A Test Case of Iterative Model Extension in Systems Biology
  • 2014
  • Ingår i: Advances in Microbial Physiology. - : Elsevier. - 0065-2911. - 9780128001431 ; 64, s. 115-143
  • Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • The African trypanosome, Ttypanosoma brucei, is a unicellular parasite causing African Trypanosomiasis (sleeping sickness in humans and nagana in animals). Due to some of its unique properties, it has emerged as a popular model organism in systems biology. A predictive quantitative model of glycolysis in the bloodstream form of the parasite has been constructed and updated several times. The Silicon Trypanosome is a project that brings together modellers and experimentalists to improve and extend this core model with new pathways and additional levels of regulation. These new extensions and analyses use computational methods that explicitly take different levels of uncertainty into account. During this project, numerous tools and techniques have been developed for this purpose, which can now be used for a wide range of different studies in systems biology.

  • 4G/5G polymorphism of PAI-1 gene promoter and fibrinolytic capacity in patients with deep vein thrombosis
  • 1998
  • Ingår i: Thrombosis and haemostasis. - : Georg Thieme Verlag KG. - 0340-6245 .- 2567-689X. ; 80:6, s. 956-960

    • A deletion/insertion polymorphism (4G or 5G) in the promoter of the plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 gene has been suggested to be involved in regulation of the synthesis of the inhibitor, the 4G allele being associated with enhanced gene expression. A relationship between 4G/5G polymorphism and PAI-1 levels was found in patients with cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, but not in healthy subjects. In the present work we studied the distribution of PAI-1 4G/5G geno-type and its relation to fibrinolytic capacity in 70 unrelated patients with deep vein thrombosis. Each patient was assayed before and after 20 min. Venous occlusion for euglobulin lysis time, t-PA antigen and activity, and PAI-1 antigen and activity. The prevalence of 5G homozygous carriers was significantly lower in patients than in controls (10% vs. 26%, p = 0.009). The 5G allele frequency was reduced, even though not significantly, in DVT patients compared to healthy subjects (0.40 vs. 0.51, respectively). In the patient group, the mean PAI-1 antigen and activity levels were significantly higher than among controls and related to the 4G/5G polymorphism. In patients with 4G/5G and 4G/4G genotype a significant correlation was found between PAI-1 levels and the global fibrinolytic activity as evaluated by euglobulin lysis time. The prevalence of a reduced fibrinolytic potential due to PAI-1 excess was 45.7% among DVT patients. Moreover, the prevalence of PAI-1 induced hypofibrinolysis was strongly related to PAI-1 polymorphism, since it was significantly lower in 5G homo-zygous patients (28.6%) than in both 4G/5G carriers (55.3%, p <0.001) and 4G homozygous patients (57.9%, p <0.001).In conclusion, in patients with deep vein thrombosis the 4G polymorphism of PAI-1 gene promoter may influence the expression of PAI-1 and it should be taken into consideration as a facilitating condition for pathological fibrinolysis together with other environmental and genetic factors. Whether this has any significance in regard to the pathogenesis of venous thrombosis remains to be proven.
