description: Let $\mathbb{N}_0$ denote the set of all non-negative integers and $X$ be any subset of $X$. Also denote the power set of $X$ by $\mathcal{P}(X)$. An integer additive set-labeling (IASL) of a graph $G$ is an injective function $f:V(G)\to \mathcal{P}(X)$ such that the induced function $f^+:E(G) \to \mathcal{P}(X)$ is defined by $f^+ (uv) = f(u)+ f(v)$, where $f(u)+f(v)$ is the sumset of $f(u)$ and $f(v)$. An IASL $f$ is said to be a topological IASL (Top-IASL) if $f(V(G))\cup \{\emptyset\}$ is a topology of the ground set $X$. An IASL is said to be an integer additive set-graceful labeling (IASGL) if for the induced edge-function $f^+$, $f^+(E(G))= \mathcal{P}(X)-\{\emptyset, \{0\}\}$. In this paper, we study certain types of IASL of a given graph $G$, which is a topological integer additive set-labeling as well as an integer additive set-graceful labeling of $G$.

description: We present the results of archival coincidence analyses using public neutrino data from the 40-string configuration of IceCube (IC40) and contemporaneous public gamma-ray data from Fermi LAT. Our analyses have the potential to discover statistically significant coincidences between high-energy neutrino and gamma-ray signals, and hence, possible jointly-emitting neutrino/gamma-ray transients. This work is an example of more general multimessenger studies that the Astrophysical Multimessenger Observatory Network (AMON) aims to perform. AMON is currently under development and will link multiple running and future high-energy neutrino, cosmic ray and follow-up observatories as well as gravitational wave facilities. This single network will enable near real-time coincidence searches for multimessenger astrophysical transients and their electromagnetic counterparts. We will present the component high-energy neutrino and gamma-ray datasets, the statistical approaches that we used, and the results of analyses of the IC40+LAT datasets.

description: A new synchrotron study for CH$_2$F$_2$ from has been combined with earlier data. The onset of absorption, band I and also band IV, is resolved into broad vibrational peaks, which contrast with the continuous absorption previously claimed. A new theoretical analysis, using a combination of time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations and complete active space self-consistent field, leads to a major new interpretation. Adiabatic excitation energies (AEEs) and vertical excitation energies, evaluated by these methods, are used to interpret the spectra in unprecedented detail using theoretical vibronic analysis. This includes both Franck-Condon (FC) and Herzberg-Teller (HT) effects on cold and hot bands. These results lead to the re-assignment of several known excited states and the identification of new ones. The lowest calculated AEE sequence for singlet states is 1$^1$B$_1$ $\sim$ 1$^1$A$_2$ < 2$^1$B$_1$ < 1$^1$A$_1$ < 2$^1$A$_1$ < 1$^1$B$_2$ < 3$^1$A$_1$ < 3$^1$B$_1$. These, together with calculated higher energy states, give a satisfactory account of the principal maxima observed in the VUV spectrum. Basis sets up to quadruple zeta valence with extensive polarization are used. The diffuse functions within this type of basis generate both valence and low-lying Rydberg excited states. The optimum position for the site of further diffuse functions in the calculations of Rydberg states is shown to lie on the H-atoms. The routine choice on the F-atoms is shown to be inadequate for both CHF$_3$ and CH$_2$F$_2$. The lowest excitation energy region has mixed valence and Rydberg character. TDDFT calculations show that the unusual structure of the onset arises from the near degeneracy of 1$^1$B$_1$ and 1$^1$A$_2$ valence states, which mix in symmetric and antisymmetric combinations.

description: Usually, we consider Multi Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) as a deterministic approach to support complex decisions, which involve multidisciplinary profiles. Furthermore, risk analysis is considered as an integral part of investments analysis, also in a probabilistic version. In this work, we are going to explore the applicability of probabilistic MCDA in supporting risk analysis practices (as a part of project management activities), in economic feasibility evaluation of the real estate investment projects. It is assumed a management approach based on adaptive approach instead of optimization approach; to operate in context characterized by the presence of risk/uncertainty components; that these components are able to perturb decision processes and strategic choices, conditioned by subjectivity/uncertainty of stakeholders and institutions in judgement definition phase (decision maker’s utility functions, criterion scores, ranking of alternatives, etc.).

The Impact of Speed Limits on Recreational Boating in the Lagoon of Venice

Publisher: name: Aestimum
Year: 2007

description: Speed limits were introduced in the Lagoon of Venice in 2002 to reduce wave motion, which damages environmentally sensitive areas in the broader Lagoon as well as buildings in the city of Venice. In this paper, we estimate the welfare losses experienced by recreational boaters as a result of the speed limits. We fit a single-site travel cost model to a sample of boaters intercepted as they depart from or arrive to marinas and launching ramps on the Lagoon. Our Poisson model is corrected for truncation and endogenous stratification. We construct three measures of the price per trip, which allow us to check the sensitivity of models and welfare estimates to possible measurement errors in the opportunity cost of time. Our results are robust to the measure of price used and conservatively peg the welfare losses of boaters to €5.2-6.7 million per year. Even under conservative assumptions, the welfare losses of boaters are sufficiently large that, given current monitoring and enforcement of the speed limits, we believe there is a strong incentive for boaters to disregard the limits.

description: The necessary factor for the beginning exploitation process of the historical-architectural building often may be the transfer of real property. When the object of the transfer is not reproducible, to determine the sale’s price we can be assumed that the offer’s negotiation power is monopolistic type. However it is also possible that, putting the building on the market, the supply clashes with an only subject interested in the purchase. This condition can be assimilated to a scheme of bilateral monopoly. This is the frame in which the development of the model of iteration between supply and demand is built for the definition of a probable price. The different characterization of the subjects involved in the transfer (public or private) is conclusive factor of the model.

description: The American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA) Task Force on Practice Guidelines regularly reviews existing guidelines to determine when an update or full revision is needed. This process gives priority to areas where major changes in text, and particularly recommendations, are mentioned on the basis of new understanding or evidence. Minor changes in verbiage and references are discouraged. The ACC/AHA guidelines for exercise testing that were published in 1997 have now been updated. The full-text guidelines incorporating the updated material are available on the Internet (www.acc.org or www.americanheart.org) in both a version that shows the changes in the 1997 guidelines in strike-over (deleted text) and highlighting (new text) and a “clean” version that fully incorporates the changes. This article describes the 10 major areas of change reflected in the update in a format that we hope can be read and understood as a stand-alone document. The table of contents from the full-length guideline (see next page) indicates the location of these changes. Interested readers are referred to the full-length Internet version to completely understand the context of these changes.

description: We report polarimetry results of a merging cluster of galaxies Abell 2256 with Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (JVLA). We performed new observations with JVLA at S-band (2051-3947 MHz) and X-band (8051-9947 MHz) in the C array configuration, and detected significant polarized emissions from the radio relic, Source A, and Source B in this cluster. We calculated the total magnetic field strengths toward the radio relic using revised equipartition formula, which is 1.8-5.0 microG. With dispersions of Faraday rotation measure, magnetic-field strengths toward Sources A and B are estimated to be 0.63-1.26 microG and 0.11-0.21 microG, respectively. An extremely high degree of linear polarization, as high as ~ 35 %, about a half of the maximum polarization, was detected toward the radio relic, which indicates highly ordered magnetic lines of force over the beam sizes (~ 52 kpc).The fractional polarization of the radio relic decreases from ~ 35 % to ~ 20 % around 3 GHz as the frequency decreases and is nearly constant between 1.37 and 3 GHz. Both analyses with depolarization models and Faraday tomography suggest multiple depolarization components toward the radio relic and imply the existence of turbulent magnetic fields.

description: Die Deregulierung der nationalen Transportmärkte Westeuropas ist Realität. Der deutsche Markt ist nicht nur der attraktivste, sondern auch besonders geschützt. Deutsche Ökonomen erinnern sich dabei an Friedrich List: an Verkehrsintegration, die Vergrößerung eines Wirtschaftsraumes und hemmenden Zunftgeist. Auch jetzt wankt wieder eine betagte Marktordnung. 56 Jahre alt und mit großen Verdiensten in schweren Zeiten. Aber es gehört zum Schicksal von Festungen, durch neue Techniken zu Belastungen zu werden und als Museen, Depots und Haftanstalten zu enden. Wie also lauten 1987 die Standardargumente von Liberalen und Protektionisten? Der Verfasser entscheidet sich für den Verkehrsraum Europa, aber sieht durchaus Nebenwirkungen, die wieder neue und noch höhere Zutrittsbarrieren begründen könnten.
description: The deregulation of all the national transport markets in Western Europe is a reality. The German market is not only the most attractive one but is also very protected. German economists look back to Friedrich List: to transport integration, market expansion and to the inhibiting spirit of the era of guilds. Once again an ageing system of market regulation staggers on, 56 years old and having done great service in difficult times. But is the fate of fortresses to be overtaken by technology and to end up as museums, depots or prisons. What are the standard arguments of liberals and protectionists in 1987? The author favours a European transport area, but does not ignore side effects which could led to new and even higher barriers.

description: The paper proposes a georeferred analytical model in order to verify at what extent the territorial element, in particular the role played by vine, represents a resource that is able to orientate the local development. The analysis has been done in different subsequent steps: firstly, it has been examined the relation between each of the 1.600 regional farm tourisms with the spatial distribution of viticulture, than, at county level, it has been examined the relation between the local farm tourism offer with the territorial diffusion of viticulture. The analytical model proposed gives an useful approach for the application of the most recent directions of communitarian, national and regional agricultural policies, because it allows to point out the relationships between territory-enterprise and territory-product and suggests an integrated model for rural development.

Generalized $μ$-$τ$ symmetry and discrete subgroups of O(3)

description: The generalized $μ$-$τ$ interchange symmetry in the leptonic mixing matrix $U$ corresponds to the relations: $|U_{μi}|=|U_{τi}|$ with $i=1,2,3$. It predicts maximal atmospheric mixing and maximal Dirac CP violation given $θ_{13} \neq 0$. We show that the generalized $μ$-$τ$ symmetry can arise if the charged lepton and neutrino mass matrices are invariant under specific residual symmetries contained in the finite discrete subgroups of $O(3)$. The groups $A_4$, $S_4$ and $A_5$ are the only such groups which can entirely fix $U$ at the leading order. The neutrinos can be (a) non-degenerate or (b) partially degenerate depending on the choice of their residual symmetries. One obtains either vanishing or very large $θ_{13}$ in case of (a) while only $A_5$ can provide $θ_{13}$ close to its experimental value in the case (b). We provide an explicit model based on $A_5$ and discuss a class of perturbations which can generate fully realistic neutrino masses and mixing maintaining the generalized $μ$-$τ$ symmetry in $U$. Our approach provides generalization of some of the ideas proposed earlier in order to obtain the predictions, $θ_{23}=π/4$ and $δ_{\rm CP} = \pm π/2$.

description: Recent developments in the theory of stability conditions and its relation to Teichmuller theory have revealed a deep connection between triangulated categories and surfaces. Motivated by this, we prove a categorical analogue of the Nielsen-Thurston classification theorem for the rank two generalised braid groups by viewing them as (sub)groups of autoequivalences of certain triangulated categories. This can be seen as a categorical generalisation of the classification known for the type $A$ braid groups when viewed as mapping class groups of the punctured discs. Firstly, we realise the generalised braid groups as groups of autoequivalences through categorical actions that categorify the corresponding Burau representations. These categorifications are achieved by constructing certain algebra objects in the tensor categories associated to the quantum group $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$, generalising the construction of zigzag algebras used in the categorical actions of simply-laced-type braid groups to include the non-simply-laced-types. By viewing the elements of the generalised braid groups as autoequivalences of triangulated categories, we study their dynamics through mass growth (categorical entropy), as introduced by Dimitrov--Haiden--Katzarkov--Kontsevich. Our classification is then achieved in a similar fashion to Bestvina-Handel's approach to the Nielsen-Thurston classification for mapping class groups. Namely, our classification can be effectively decided through a given algorithm that also computes the mass growth of the group elements. Moreover, it shows that the mass growth of the pseudo-Anosov elements are computable from certain rank two matrices. This is the author's PhD thesis.

description: A new class of materials termed topological insulators have been intensively investigated due to their unique Dirac surface state carrying dissipationless edge spin currents. Recently, it has been theoretically proposed that the three dimensional analogue of this type of band structure, the Weyl Semimetal phase, is materialized in pyrochlore oxides with strong spin-orbit coupling, accompanied by all-in-all-out spin ordering. Here, we report on the fabrication and magnetotransport of Eu2Ir2O7 single crystalline thin films. We reveal that one of the two degenerate all-in-all-out domain structures, which are connected by time-reversal operation, can be selectively formed by the polarity of the cooling magnetic field. Once formed, the domain is robust against an oppositely polarised magnetic field, as evidenced by an unusual odd field dependent term in the magnetoresistance and an anomalous term in the Hall resistance. Our findings pave the way for exploring the predicted novel quantum transport phenomenon at the surfaces/interfaces or magnetic domain walls of pyrochlore iridates.

description: Actually, there is a close connection between the individual welfare and the use of the environmental resources. However, it is generally well-known that an excessive use of the resources implies a pollution increase and a consequent welfare decrease. The identification of the actions and the tools facing such a negative trend actually represents one of the most important political objectives, at each level. The aim of the present work is to identify the trends which have produced and are still producing some modifications of the territory, with a particular reference to the rural territory. The models carried out involve the transition matrixes and the space models, which have been compared for fourty years on the inner territory of Basilicata Region.

description: Electroencephalogram (EEG) brain waves are an extremely important resource for clinical analysis and diagnosis of mental health and other psychiatric diseases. They help current diagnosis of these diseases, as clinics use the external behavior of a patient and the psychiatrist’s qualitative reasoning to determine what disease the patient has. However, this approach does not examine internal activity in the brain, and is not uniformly quantifiable. EEG provides a means for psychiatrists to do this, however, this process can be complicated because the variability in EEG signals. Machine Learning (ML) provides a means to analyze these complex data. A computational tool that can recognize patterns in EEG signals would be a valuable starting point in diagnosis psychiatric disorders. We proceeded to develop a recurrent neural network (RNN) model structure that could analyze an individual's brain waves and predict their emotional condition. We used the EEG Brainwave Dataset: Feeling Emotions dataset, which contains various statistical features of the EEG brain waves of two different test subjects as they were experiencing different emotions. We extracted frequency domain features, converted them to the time domain, and filtered them. We trained a gated recurrent unit (GRU) model from these filtered and attained a 96.95\% validation accuracy.

The results are examined considering two different geometric configurations, ring- and linear-like, of the material which is coupled to one input and two output leads. Our results exhibit absolute zero spin polarization for the linear sample, while finite polarization is obtained in output leads for the ring-like sample.

description: Weak antilocalization (WAL) effect is commonly observed in 2D systems, or 3D topological insulators, topological semimetal systems. Here we report the clear sign of WAL effect in high quality Ta$_{0.7}$Nb$_{0.3}$Sb$_2$ single crystals, in below 50$^\circ$ K region. The chemical vapor transport method was employed to grow the single crystal samples, the high crystallization quality and uniform element distribution are verified by X-ray diffractions and electron microscopy techniques. Employing the Hall effect and two-band model fitting, the high carrier mobility (> 1000 cm$^2$V$^{-1}$s$^{-1}$ in 2 to 300$^\circ$ K region) and off-compensation electron/hole ratio are obtained. Due to the different angular dependence of WAL effect and the fermiology of Ta$_{0.7}$Nb$_{0.3}$Sb$_2$ single crystal, interesting magnetic-field-induced symmetry change is observed in angular magnetoresistance. These interesting transport properties will lead to more theoretical and applicational exploration in Ta$_{0.7}$Nb$_{0.3}$Sb$_2$ and related semimetal materials.

Feeling Mixed, Ambivalent, and in Flux: The Social Functions of Emotional Complexity for Leaders
Creators: name: Rothman, Naomi B.

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: We propose that the experience and expression of emotional complexity, including the simultaneous and sequential experience of emotional complexity, can be beneficial for leaders’ ability to lead change. Using the social functions of emotions perspective, we suggest that the primary function of emotional complexity is to increase cognitive flexibility. Specifically, we present a model that explains how, when, and why emotional complexity is functional for leaders at the individual and interpersonal levels of analysis. At the individual level, leaders who experience emotional complexity are more cognitively flexible and, thus, make more adaptive decisions. We further propose that not all leaders will experience such benefits from emotional complexity; individual differences of neuroticism and openness to experience will moderate the leader emotional complexity–cognitive flexibility relationship. Extending our analysis to the interpersonal level, we propose that when followers observe leaders expressing emotional complexity, they will make positive inferences of cognitive flexibility and be empowered to act proactively. We explore a relational factor—the followers’ shared vantage point with their leader—and a situational factor—competing demands as moderators of this relationship. We draw attention to the broader implications of our theorizing for research on leadership and emotions and its practical implications for management.

description: Dans cette thèse, nous analysons l’interprétation de Karl Löwith de la philosophie de Nietzsche. Elle est guidée par l’idée que le dialogue que Karl Löwith entretient avec Nietzsche est l’un des plus instructifs sur la manière dont Löwith pose les problèmes qui animent sa pensée. Ce dialogue débute par des lectures de jeunesse à l’époque où Nietzsche s’avère le maître à penser d’une génération qui se comprend comme vivant à la frontière entre le monde ancien à dépasser et un monde nouveau à préparer. L’interprétation philosophique que tentera Löwith dans Nietzsche : philosophie de l’éternel retour du même peut se comprendre comme une critique de cette manière radicale de poser le problème du nihilisme avec Nietzsche. Le premier chapitre de cette thèse est un examen du contexte entourant l’écriture de ce principal ouvrage de Karl Löwith. Les second et troisième chapitres sont consacrés à une analyse de la compréhension löwithienne du mouvement général de la pensée de Nietzsche. Le second chapitre examine les principes herméneutiques qui guident Löwith dans son interprétation et les solutions qu’il propose afin de surmonter les défis qui accompagnent le projet de mettre en évidence l'ordre, l'intelligibilité et l'unité de l’œuvre de Nietzsche. Dans le troisième chapitre, nous analysons les principaux mouvements de ce système de la philosophie de Nietzsche que dégage la lecture de Löwith. Selon Löwith, la pensée de Nietzsche est l’essai d’une réponse au problème de la relation entre l’existence humaine et l’être du monde. Antiquité, christianisme, modernité, nihilisme, volonté de l’éternel retour sont des termes qui résument les configurations possibles du rapport de l’humain au monde. Cette compréhension du lien de l'homme et le monde s'appuie sur une anthropologie de la volonté. Nietzsche est ce penseur qui tente d’opérer un retour à la compréhension antique du lien entre l’homme et la nature à partir du nihilisme dont l’éternel retour doit être à la fois aboutissement et renversement. Cette tentative est selon Löwith contradictoire, mais réfléchir sur cette contradiction peut nous instruire sur les alternatives fondamentales du rapport entre l’humain et le monde et nous guider vers un examen critique de l’idée de dépassement qui nous invite à une posture plus sceptique et prudente qui ne masque pas pour autant les problèmes de la modernité que Nietzsche soulève.

description: Spin-orbit interaction (SOI) offers a nonferromagnetic scheme to realize spin polarization through utilizing an electric field. Electrically tunable SOI through electrostatic gates have been investigated, however, the relatively weak and volatile tunability limit its practical applications in spintronics. Here, we demonstrate the nonvolatile electric-field control of SOI via constructing ferroelectric Rashba architectures, i.e., 2D Bi2O2Se/PMN-PT ferroelectric field effect transistors. The experimentally observed weak antilocalization (WAL) cusp in Bi2O2Se films implies the Rashba-type SOI that arises from asymmetric confinement potential. Significantly, taking advantage of the switchable ferroelectric polarization, the WAL-to-weak localization (WL) transition trend reveals the competition between spin relaxation and dephasing process, and the variation of carrier density leads to a reversible and nonvolatile modulation of spin relaxation time and spin splitting energy of Bi2O2Se films by this ferroelectric gating. Our work provides a scheme to achieve nonvolatile control of Rashba SOI with the utilization of ferroelectric remanent polarization.

description: A well-known result by Lindenstrauss is that any two-dimensional normed space can be isometrically imbedded into $L_1(0,1)$. We provide an explicit form of a such an imbedding. The proof is elementary and self-contained. Applications are given concerning the following: (i) explicit representations of the moments of the norm of a random vector $X$ in terms of the characteristic function and the Fourier--Laplace transform of the distribution of $X$; (ii) an explicit and partially improved form of the exact version of the Littlewood--Khinchin--Kahane inequality obtained by Latała and Oleszkiewicz; (iii) an extension of an inequality by Buja--Logan--Reeds--Shepp, arising from a statistical problem.

description: This dissertation provides a comprehensive description of the tonal and intonational phonology of Lhasa Tibetan (LT) in the Autosegmental-Metrical framework. It is based on recorded data elicited from members of the Tibetan-Canadian community in Ottawa and Toronto. The first two chapters of the dissertation contain background information about LT, a summary of previous research on LT tones and intonation, and an overview of the theoretical framework and conceptual tools used in the rest of the dissertation. The third chapter deals with word tonology. I establish that the prosodic structure of LT brings evidence for four main constituents at or below the word level: a) the mora encodes vowel length contrasts, b) the syllable is the tone-bearing unit (TBU), c) the prosodic word, which is maximally binary, delimits the application of most tonal processes, and d) the prosodic word group, which matches grammatical words, is the domain of downstep. This prosodic structure provides evidence against the universality of the Prosodic Hierarchy (Selkirk, 2002; Nespor and Vogel, 2007) in that it has no phonological phrase, but has two word-level constituents. I then argue that LT has three lexical tones (H, LH, and L) – L being limited to some suffixes – and propose that these lexical tones are subject to tone rules applying within the prosodic word and the prosodic word group. These tone rules are similar to those proposed by Duanmu (1992), but have been improved to accurately predict the tone patterns of long polysyllabic words. Based on phonetic evidence, I also come to the conclusion that LT no longer has stress, and that the stress pattern found in other Bodic varieties has been reinterpreted as a part of the tonal system. The fourth chapter analyses phrasal prosody. I argue that LT forms intonational phrases around clauses and marks them with final lengthening, pitch reset, and a limited set of boundary tones (H% and L%). Although communicative functions and information structure are mostly realized by means of final particles and morphosyntactic devices in LT, I show that boundary tones, focal tones, and deaccenting interact with word tones to form complex melodic patterns. In the fifth chapter, I present a phonologically-based F0 synthesis model to verify the adequacy of the proposed Autosegmental-Metrical model of LT. This F0 synthesis model consists of three main components: a) the tonal targets de ned in previous chapters, b) an F0 interpolation component based on the PENTA model (Xu, 2004), and c) an evaluation component allowing a comparison of the F0 contours of real LT utterances with resynthesized F0 contours of the same utterances. The F0 synthesis model is able to generate F0 contours that approximate the F0 contours of real LT recordings, suggesting that the proposed phonological model adequately captures the overall tonal and intonational phonology of LT.

description: As one of the most important n-type thermoelectric (TE) materials, Bi2Te3 has been studied for decades, with efforts to enhance the thermoelectric performance based on element doping, band engineering, etc. In this study, we report a novel bulk-insulating topological material system as a replacement for n-type Bi2Te3 materials: V doped Bi1.08Sn0.02Sb0.9Te2S (V:BSSTS) . The V:BSSTS is a bulk insulator with robust metallic topological surface states. Furthermore, the bulk band gap can be tuned by the doping level of V, which is verified by magnetotransport measurements. Large linear magnetoresistance is observed in all samples. Excellent thermoelectric performance is obtained in the V:BSSTS samples, e.g., the highest figure of merit ZT of ~ 0.8 is achieved in the 2% V doped sample (denoted as V0.02) at 550 K. The high thermoelectric performance of V:BSSTS can be attributed to two synergistic effects: (1) the low conductive secondary phases Sb2S3, and V2S3 are believed to be important scattering centers for phonons, leading to lower lattice thermal conductivity; and (2) the electrical conductivity is increased due to the high-mobility topological surface states at the boundaries. In addition, by replacing one third of costly tellurium with abundant, low-cost, and less-toxic sulfur element, the newly produced BSSTS material is inexpensive but still has comparable TE performance to the traditional Bi2Te3-based materials, which offers a cheaper plan for the electronics and thermoelectric industries. Our results demonstrate that topological materials with unique band structures can provide a new platform in the search for new high performance TE materials.

description: BACKGROUND
Gene-expression–profiling studies of primary breast tumors performed by different laboratories have resulted in the identification of a number of distinct prognostic profiles, or gene sets, with little overlap in terms of gene identity.
METHODS
To compare the predictions derived from these gene sets for individual samples, we obtained a single data set of 295 samples and applied five gene-expression–based models: intrinsic subtypes, 70-gene profile, wound response, recurrence score, and the two-gene ratio (for patients who had been treated with tamoxifen).
RESULTS
We found that most models had high rates of concordance in their outcome predictions for the individual samples. In particular, almost all tumors identified as having an intrinsic subtype of basal-like, HER2-positive and estrogen-receptor–negative, or luminal B (associated with a poor prognosis) were also classified as having a poor 70-gene profile, activated wound response, and high recurrence score. The 70-gene and recurrence-score models, which are beginning to be used in the clinical setting, showed 77 to 81 percent agreement in outcome classification.
