Farhad Shokoohi (Mathematical Sciences) published a paper titled, "Data-Driven Identification of Early Cancer-Associated Genes via Penalized Trans-Dimensional Hidden Markov Models," in Biomolecules Journal. The paper proposes a new protocol and a case study for analyzing cancer epigenetic data. The proposed methodology is based on two of his…

Guangyu Zhao (Mathematical Sciences) published a research paper, "Sturm comparison for nonlocal equations," in Sao Paulo Journal of Mathematical Sciences.

Jichun Li (Mathematical Sciences) published a single authored paper in the top journal Computers & Mathematics with Applications (vol.172, 2024, pp.111-124). Here he proved one-order higher superconvergence for the time-dependent Maxwell's equations solved by arbitrary order H(curl) and H(div) basis functions on rectangular and cuboid elements…

Jichun Li (Mathematical Sciences) and his collaborators recently established a time-dependent Maxwell’s equation model for simulating wave propagation in hyperbolic metamaterials. They proposed effective numerical algorithms to demonstrate the applications for designing hyperbolic superlenses. The results are published in the Computational…
