Typical Yet Unlikely and Normally Abnormal: The Intuition Behind High-Dimensional Statistics

Abstract Normality, in the colloquial sense, has historically been considered an aspirational trait, synonymous with ideality. The arithmetic average and, by extension, statistics including linear regression coefficients, have often been used to characterize normality, and are often used as a way to summarize samples and identify outliers. We provide intuition behind the behavior of such statistics in high dimensions, and demonstrate that even for datasets with a relatively low number of dimensions, data start to exhibit a number of peculiarities which become severe as the number of dimensions increases. Whilst our main goal is to familiarize researchers with these peculiarities, we also show that normality can be better characterized with ‘typicality’, an information theoretic concept relating to entropy. An application of typicality to both synthetic and real-world data concerning political values reveals that in multi-dimensional space, to be ‘normal’ is actually to be atypical. We briefly explore the ramifications for outlier detection, demonstrating how typicality, in contrast with the popular Mahalanobis distance, represents a viable method for outlier detection.

Development and validation of a simple solid-liquid extraction protocol coupled with LC-ESI-MS/MS for the determination of aflatoxin M1 in products of colostrum-based supplements and whey protein-based sports food

Special categories, such as infants and athletes, rely heavily on milk-based products. However, aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) contamination is a prevalent risk. This study aims to develop and validate a simple solid-liquid extraction protocol coupled with LC-ESI-MS/MS for AFM1 determination in colostrum-based supplements and whey protein-based sports foods. Extracts of acetonitrile-water (3:2, v/v) were directly injected into LC-ESI-MS/MS in a positive-ion mode. Separation was performed on the Agilent Poroshell 120 EC-C18 column with core-shell properties in a total analysis run time of 7.5 min. Among the tested extraction solvents, acetonitrile-water (3:2, v/v) provided an efficient direct extraction without any further treatments. AFM1 was eluted at a tR of 4.20 ± 0.05 min using the Agilent Poroshell column, and a tolerable ME% was successfully achieved. In both commodities studied, the recovery percentage, repeatability, intermediate precision, LOD, LOQ, linearity range, and linear regression coefficient (R2) results were 94.3–104.1% with RSDs of 4.70–8.40%, 4.49–9.7%, 7.89–10.6%, 0.0015 µg/kg, 0.005 µg/kg, 0.005–1.000 ng/mL, and 0.9999, respectively. Applicability was demonstrated on two proficiency testing (PT) samples and 60 domestic samples. Results have confirmed the practicality of the proposed assay protocol, with concentrations ranging from 0.010 to 4.423 µg/kg for positive samples. Out of the tested samples, 4.8% of the whey protein-based sports foods violated the EU's established limits. This validated assay protocol would help increase sample processing capacity while also ensuring effective and regular oversight by national regulatory authorities.

Numerical analysis of heat and mass transfer of MHD natural convection flow in a cavity with effects of source and sink

The study of fluid flow and heat transport is found in many engineering applications such as boilers, nuclear plants, thermal energy storage, and underground pipelines. This study focuses on investigating the effects of isothermal source and sink on natural convection and entropy generation for Casson fluids using the finite element method. Under these considerations, fins ensure the effectiveness of heat transfer systems and flow patterns. Results describe that a higher Ra value leads to promote heat and mass transfer while Ha has the opposite impact. By increasing Ha value, results to retard convective heat transfer. As the Lewis number increases, so does the entropy due to deformation and the Bejan number. The shape optimization study about fins is performed in detail. The aspect ratio of cold fins is varied from 1.25 to 7, found that length and width are nearly directly related to entropy, mass, and heat transfer rates. The correlation coefficient for mean Nusselt and Sherwood number versus sink width is 0.9942, very close to 1, showing a very close direct relationship. The linear regression coefficients for mean Nusselt, Sherwood number and total entropy versus sink lengths are (0.7484, 2.2343), (0.7706, 2.254) and (2.4927, 5.8662), respectively.

Lapse rate-adjusted bias correction for CMIP6 GCM precipitation data: An application to the Monsoon Asia Region.

Bias correction (BC) of General Circulation Models (GCMs) variables is a common practice when it is being used for climate impact assessment studies at regional scales. The present study proposes a bias correction method (LR-Reg) that first adjusts the original GCM precipitation for local lapse rate corrections and later bias corrects the lapse rate-adjusted GCMs precipitation data with linear regression coefficients. We evaluated LR-Reg BC method in comparison to Linear Scaling (LS) and Quantile Mapping (QMap) BC methods, and NASA's downscaled NEX data for Monsoon Asia region. This study used Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6)-based MIROC6 GCM precipitation with historical and projected shared socio-economic pathways (SSP) scenarios (SSP245 and SSP585) datasets. The BC comparison results show that the relative percentage reduction in mean absolute error (MAE) values of LR-Reg over LS-BC was up to 10-30% while this relative reduction in MAE values of LR-Reg was 30-50% over QMap-BC and 75-100% over NASA's NEX-data. The future projected precipitation over Monsoon Asia during dry season shows more decreased precipitation by up to 100% mostly in the south Asia while during wet season shows more increased precipitation by up to 50% mostly in the northeastern China and in the Himalayan belts with respect to the baseline condition (1970-2005). The results on the average precipitation per 0.25 degree increase in latitude analysis shows that the maximums of average monsoon precipitation during baseline period occur at 0 and 25 degree latitudes while the projected monsoon precipitation during both SSP scenarios occurs at 10 and 20 degree latitudes which clearly shows an inward shift in the latitude axis for the projected precipitation in the Monsoon Asia.

Comparison of Platelet Counts Estimated by Peripheral Blood Smear Examination and Automated Haematology Analyzer

Introduction: Platelet count estimation is one of the common as well as important investigations in clinical practice to diagnose many diseases like dengue, malaria, etc. Different methods for platelet estimations are available. These methods are manual counting semi-automated and automated hematology analyzer counting, platelet count estimation by peripheral blood smear (PBS) method, etc. Semi-automated or automated analyzers may produce erroneous results in the presence of particles or light scatter like giant platelets, fragmented red blood cells, and platelet clumps, so alternative methods like PBS examination can be used for validation. Aim: To compare platelet count estimation performed by the automated cell counter method and the PBS examination method. Objective: Peripheral Blood smear examination acts as a good quality control tool to validate the results produced by the automated cell counter. Materials and Methods: The present study was carried out in the Department of Pathology, Akshaya Health Centre, Urban Bangalore. The study included 100 random blood samples collected into ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) vacutainers over 3 months. These were analyzed by both peripheral blood smear and automated cell counter for platelet estimation. The statistical analysis was done for test performances and their comparisons by using the coefficient of variation (CV), linear regression, and mean differences with SPSS software. Results: No significant difference (p = 0.06635) was observed between the manual peripheral blood smear (PBS) method (platelets average per 100x, multiplied by 15000/ µl) of platelet estimation (207.13 ±15.898 x 1000/ µl) and that of automated cell counter platelet value (206.53 ±16.278 x 1000/ µl). A significant positive correlation was observed between the results of both methods (r=0.9995, p < 0.001) when analyzed by the Pearson correlation test. Conclusion: The peripheral blood smear platelet estimation results are comparable with automated analyzer results. Hence, the PBS examination serves as a quality control tool in assessing the results of the automated cell counters.

Comparative Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Beam Behaviour: Conventional Model vs. Artificial Neural Network Predictions.

This research aims to conduct a comparative analysis of the first crack load, flexural strength, and shear strength in reinforced concrete beams without stirrups. The comparison is made between the conventional model developed according to the current design code (ACI building code) and an unconventional approach using Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). To accomplish this, a dataset comprising 110 samples of reinforced concrete beams without stirrup reinforcement was collected and utilised to train a Multilayer Backpropagation Neural Network in MATLAB. The primary objective of this work is to establish a knowledge-based structural analysis model capable of accurately predicting the responses of reinforced concrete structures. The coefficient of determination obtained from this comparison yields values of 0.9404 for the first cracking load, 0.9756 for flexural strength, and 0.9787 for shear strength. Through an assessment of the coefficient of determination and linear regression coefficients, it becomes evident that the ANN model produces results that closely align with those obtained from the conventional model. This demonstrates the ANN's potential for precise prediction of the structural behaviour of reinforced concrete beams.

Development of Filtering Electrospray Ionization-Ion Trap Mass Spectrometry Technique for the Rapid Detection of Antibiotic Residues in Food

This article reports on the development of an atmospheric pressure filtering electrospray ionization (FESI) source – composed of a syringe, a filter, and the ESI source – for the determination of furazolidone, amoxicillin, nitrofurantoin, and nitrofural, common antibiotics. Spiked food samples were also analyzed; the analytes were placed in the filter head, and the flow rate of the extraction solution from the syringe pump was adjusted. Using a mixture of oleic acid and antibiotics, hydrophilic and hydrophobic filters were compared, demonstrating the advantage of FESI in reducing the background and noise for the mixture. The device simplifies not only the experimental procedure but also the sample pretreatment process. Additionally, the limits of detection of the antibiotics were determined to be 1 mg L−1 for furazolidone, amoxicillin, and nitrofurantoin and 2 mg L−1 for nitrofural. The linear regression coefficients (R 2) of the antibiotic standard solutions were all ≥0.99. Furthermore, the spiked recovery rates of pork, chicken, and egg samples ranged from 73.3% to 107.5%, with relative standard deviations (RSDs) from 1.1% to 15.6%. This study uncovers the potential capabilities of ion trap mass spectrometry (ITMS) for the on-site detection of antibiotics and offers a new method for ensuring food safety.

The Comparative of α- and β-Cyclodextrin as Stabilizing Agents on AuNPs and Application as Colorimetric Sensors for Fe<sup>3+</sup> in Tap Water

In this study, AuNPs were reduced using ortho-hydroxybenzoic acid (o-HBA) and various stabilizing agents (α-CDs and β-CDs). The stability, shape, size, and sensitivity of the Fe3+ detection of AuNPs α-CDs and AuNP β-CDs are compared. Both nanomaterials were characterized using ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopes (TEM). After the addition of Fe3+, the absorption rate of surface plasma resonance (SPR) increased to 524 nm, and the color of AuNPs α-CDs and AuNPs β-CDs was changed from pink to red and purple, respectively. AuNPs α-CDs are more uniform in shape and size than AuNPs β-CDs with a size of 23.34 nm. Further, AuNPs α-CDs are more stable, and the absorption rate at 524 nm wavelength decreases by 17.76%. AuNPs α-CDs have a good linear relationship with a linear regression coefficient of 0.996. The sensitivity of AuNPs α-CDs was good with LoD and LoQ both with 1.21 and 4.02 ppm, respectively. These results show that the sensor is superior in determining Fe3+. In addition, AuNPs α-CDs were used to detect Fe3+ in the tap water in South Tangerang, Banten, Indonesia.

Sedimentary mud and phaeophytin-a are reliable predictors of oxygen consumption and nitrogen turnover in the southern North Sea

Coastal systems are exposed to variable human uses and anthropogenic pressures, yet they provide valuable ecosystem services. Understanding the benthic processes in these systems is crucial for their effective management and conservation. This study investigates sediment characteristics as proxies for oxygen and nitrogen turnover in coastal, sandy, permeable sediments. We incubated sediment samples to quantify the turnover of ammonium and nitrate and analyzed various sediment properties to determine the most suitable predictors of sediment reactivity. Oxygen consumption rates and rates of ammonium and nitrate turnover strongly correlate with mud content and phaeophytin-a, which are identified as the best proxies for sediment reactivity. Ultimately, our data show that sediment nutrient recycling and turnover is intimately linked to spring primary production in the water column. In order to deduce reaction rates of oxygen, ammonium and nitrate from sediment properties, we provide linear regression coefficients and their uncertainties, enabling access to previous observations that would otherwise remain inaccessible due to missing data. This study provides insights for the development of benthic models that ultimately can be used to assess the impact of anthropogenic pressures on coastal systems. The findings have implications for nutrient management and monitoring in the German Bight, as an improved understanding of sediment reactivity allows for more appropriate and sustainable management and monitoring policies to be implemented.
