We explore the effects of overdispersed DNA lesion distribution on the shapes of cell surviving curves of mammalian cells exposed to hadrons at various doses. To provide a theoretical framework in resolving discrepancies between…

This work aims at carving out more clearly the basic assumptions behind the "track-event theory" (TET) and its derivate radiation action model based on nanodosimetry (RAMN) by clearly distinguishing between effects of tracks at the cellular…

Although DNA damage is widely viewed as a critical target for the induction of cell killing by ionizing radiation, the exact nature of DNA damage responsible for these effects is unknown. To address this issue, the probability of forming…

Carbon-ion radiotherapy (CIRT) is generally evaluated with the dose weighted by relative biological effectiveness (RBE), while the radiation quality varying in the body of each patient is ignored for lack of such distribution. In this…

Relative biological effectiveness (RBE) is a key quantity for the description of radiobiological effects induced by charged-particle irradiation in the context of ion-beam cancer therapy. Since RBE is a complex function that depends on…

The "track event theory" (TET) has been developed in recent years as an alternative to the phenomenological linear-quadratic model for cell survival under exposure to ionizing radiation, particularly for heavy charged particles. The TET is…

In regression analysis under artificial neural networks, the prediction performance depends on determining the appropriate weights between layers. As randomly initialized weights are updated during back-propagation using the gradient…

We describe an analysis of neutron transport in the interior of model pebble bed reactor (PBR) cores, considering both crystal and random pebble arrangements. Monte Carlo codes were developed for (i) generating random realizations of the…

By deriving a general expression for multiplicity distribution (a conditional probability distribution) in statistical model, we demonstrate the mismatches between experimental measurements and previous theoretical calculations on…

Various models for pion multiplicity distributions produced in relativistic heavy ion collisions are discussed. The models include a relativistic hydrodynamic model, a thermodynamic description, an emitting source pion laser model, and a…

RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) has become a powerful technology to characterize gene expression profiles because it is more accurate and comprehensive than microarrays. Although statistical methods that have been developed for microarray data can…

Proton therapy offers significant advantages due to its unique physical and biological properties, particularly the Bragg peak, enabling precise dose delivery to tumors while sparing healthy tissues. However, the clinical implementation is…

While the hurdle Poisson regression is a popular class of models for count data with excessive zeros, the link function in the binary component may be unsuitable for highly imbalanced cases. Ordinary Poisson regression is unable to handle…

We propose a Bayesian nonparametric (BNP) approach to causal inference using observational data consisting of outcome, treatment, and a set of confounders. The conditional distribution of the outcome given treatment and confounders is…

We propose in this paper a random intercept Poisson model in which the random effect distribution is assumed to follow a generalized log-gamma (GLG) distribution. We derive the first two moments for the marginal distribution as well as the…

We propose Radiation Exposure Theory (RET), a mathematical framework to estimate biological damage caused by irradiation. This is an extension of LDM model which was proposed in the paper [Y. Manabe et al.: J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 81,…

Numerical simulations are performed on a stochastic model based on Monte Carlo damage simulation process and Markov Chain Monte Carlo techniques to investigate the formation and evaluation of isolated and multiple DNA damage and cellular…

RNA-Seq data characteristically exhibits large variances, which need to be appropriately accounted for in the model. We first explore the effects of this variability on the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of the overdispersion parameter…

We propose a mathematical model for estimating biological damage caused by low-dose irradiation. We understand that the Linear Non Threshold (LNT) hypothesis is realized only in the case of no recovery effects. In order to treat the…

Lately, a New Transmuted Logistic-exponential (NTLE) distribution was introduced and studied as an extension of the Logistic-Exponential Distribution (LED) with wider applicability in lifetime modelling. However, the maximum likelihood…
