Article Abstract

The success of linear discriminant analysis (LDA) is due in part to the simplicity of its formulation, which reduces to a simultaneous diagonalization of two symmetric matrices A and B;. However, a fundamental drawback of this approach is that it cannot be efficiently applied wherever the matrix A is singular or when some of the smallest variances in A are due to noise. In this paper, we present a factorization of A(-1) and a correlation-based criterion that can be readily employed to solve these problems. We provide detailed derivations for the linear and nonlinear classification problems. The usefulness of the proposed approach is demonstrated thoroughly using a large variety of databases.

Background: The hallmark feature of tremor is rhythmicity, which can be quantified using power spectral density (PSD) analysis. However, tremor exhibits considerable variability, ranging from highly regular to more irregular patterns. Similarly, rhythmicity in myoclonus varies, but it typically manifests as arrhythmic jerks.

Peking University Sixth Hospital, Peking University Institute of Mental Health, NHC Key Laboratory of Mental Health (Peking University), National Clinical Research Center for Mental Disorders (Peking University Sixth Hospital), Beijing, 100191, People's Republic of China.

Objective: Adolescent anhedonia (AA) exhibits distinct characteristics. Currently available anhedonia scales in Chinese are designed solely for adult populations. This investigation assessed the psychometric characteristics of the Chinese Anhedonia Scale for Adolescents (ASA-C) across clinical, subthreshold, and typically developing adolescent cohorts, while establishing its optimal cut-off for prominent anhedonia identification.

Purpose: The gut microbiota plays a crucial role in bilirubin metabolism in neonates. The phototherapy threshold assesses the need for clinical intervention in neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (NH). This study aimed to investigate gut microbiota alterations in neonates with NH meeting the phototherapy threshold.

Introduction: Feline herpesvirus type 1 (FHV-1) is a primary pathogen causing feline upper respiratory tract diseases (FURTD), but its impact on the upper respiratory tract microbiota remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of FHV-1 infection on the upper respiratory tract microbiota by comparing the microbial composition between FHV-1-positive group with FHV-1-negative group.

Methods: The microbial diversity in the upper respiratory tract of FHV-1-positive cats ( = 8) were analyzed using 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing, and then this diversity was compared with that in healthy FHV-1-negative controls ( = 4).
