Effects of tree pollen on throughfall element fluxes in European forests
Keywords: Airborne pollen concentrations Dissolved organic carbon ICP Forests Nitrogen Potassium Throughfall Abstract: The effects of tree pollen on precipitation chemistry are not fully understood and this ...
Novel prediction models for genotoxicity based on biomarker genes in human HepaRG™ cells.
forest (RF), was evaluated. More specifically, the predictive accuracy was compared, the sensitivity to outliers for one or more biomarker genes was assessed, and the prediction performance for 10 ...
Exploratory study of risk factors related to SARS-CoV-2 prevalence in nursing homes in Flanders (Belgium) during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic
resident-related factors, management and performance features as well as building-related aspects. The relation between risk factors and seroprevalence was assessed by applying random forest modelling, generalized ...
Potential impact fractions of body mass index reductions on the non-communicable disease burden in Belgium using G-computation
address. Self-reported BMI and diabetes were corrected based on information from the 2018 Belgian health examination survey and a random-forest multiple imputation process. A G-computation approach was used ...
Using random-forest multiple imputation to address bias of self-reported anthropometric measures, hypertension and hypercholesterolemia in the Belgian health interview survey
regression model’s accuracy was poor, multiple imputation was the only approach which provided smaller standard errors than those based on clinical data. CONCLUSIONS: The random-forest multiple imputation ...
Identification of Mycobacterium abscessus Subspecies by MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry and Machine Learning.
spectra. Overall, using a random forest model with several confidence criteria (samples by triplicate and similarity values >60%), a total of 96.5% of isolates were correctly identified at the subspecies ...
Novel prediction models for genotoxicity based on biomarker genes in human HepaRGTM cells
used, but as unsupervised machine learning did not clearly distinguish both groups, the performance of two supervised machine learning algorithms, i.e., support vector machine (SVM) and random forest ...
Sentinel-2 Satellite and Hysplit Model Show that Local Cereal Harvesting Substantially Contributes to Peak Alternaria Spore Concentrations
Mathilde Kloster; Professor Carsten Ambelas Skjøth Source: Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, Volume 326, Issue 109156 (2022) Keywords: Allergens Land cover Modelling Pathogens Remote sensing Abstract: ...
Quality control and correction method for air temperature data from a citizen science weather station network in Leuven, Belgium
intra-station (station-specific) temperature biases by means of a random forest approach. The QC method is evaluated using data from four WH2600 stations installed next to official weather stations belonging to ...
Reconstructing multi-decadal airborne birch pollen levels based on NDVI data and a pollen transport model
Forest Meteorology, Volume 320 (2022) Health Topics: Pollen (allergie) Service: Mycologie et aérobiologie Mycologie en aerobiologie Mycology and aerobiology Manuscript versions: DOI: ...
