  1. 1. Towards Building Privacy-Preserving Language Models: Challenges and Insights in Adapting PrivGAN for Generation of Synthetic Clinical Text

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för data- och systemvetenskap

    Author : Atena Nazem; [2023]
    Keywords : Generative Adversarial Networks; privacy-preserving language models; clinical text data; reinforcement learning; synthetic data;

    Abstract : The growing development of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly neural networks, is transforming applications of AI in healthcare, yet it raises significant privacy concerns due to potential data leakage. As neural networks memorise training data, they may inadvertently expose sensitive clinical data to privacy breaches, which can engender serious repercussions like identity theft, fraud, and harmful medical errors.

    Author : Nicole Svärd; [2023]
    Keywords : foodborne bacteria; cutting board; bacterial survival; wood; plastic; laboratory protocol;

    Abstract : The survival of foodborne bacteria on different cutting board materials has been studied and a functional laboratory protocol for further studies on the subject has been established. Six different bacteria, E. coli, S. aureus, L monocytogenes, S. READ MORE

  5. 4. Longitudinal Group Sequential Testing

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Emil Lanzén; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sequential testing is used in clinical trials and online experiments to terminate trials early if there is sufficient evidence of a treatment effect, reducing the subjects’ exposure to potentially harmful treatments. However, incomplete follow-up of trial subjects can lead to biased estimation of the treatment effect. READ MORE

  6. 5. Evaluating targeted combination therapies in EGFR wild-type non-small-cell lung cancer using mass spectrometry-based proteomics

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för immunteknologi

    Author : Johan Thorsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Survival for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients has been significantly improved by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in patients with EGFR mutations. However, certain subpopulations of NSCLC patients with EGFR wild-type (wt) status have been shown to also respond to EGFR-TKIs. READ MORE
