Integration of Multi-Omics Data for the Classification of Glioma Types and Iden...
Vieira, Francisca G.; Bispo, Regina; Lopes, Marta B.Publisher Copyright: © The Author(s) 2024.; Glioma is currently one of the most prevalent types of primary brain cancer. Given its high level of heterogeneity along with the complex biological molecular markers, many efforts have been made to accurately classify the type of glioma in each patient, which, in turn, is critical to improve early diagnosis and increase survival. Nonetheless, as a result of the fast-...

Spatial modelling and mapping of urban fire occurrence in Portugal
Bispo, Regina; Vieira, Francisca G.; Bachir, Nádia; Espadinha-Cruz, Pedro; Lopes, José Pedro; Penha, Alexandre; Marques, Filipe J.; Grilo, AntónioPublisher Copyright: © 2023 The Author(s); Fires in urban areas typically carry severe consequences. High population density together with the complexity of urban network potentially imply significant impacts in property loss, physical damage and life losses. However, despite the impact that fires may have in urban areas, research in urban fire prediction remains limited. In this study, we modelled urban fire o...
Testing the independence of variables for specific covariance structures
Marques, Filipe J.; Diogo, Joana; Norouzirad, Mina; Bispo, ReginaPublisher Copyright: © 2023 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.; In this work, we show how it is possible to test the nullity of covariances, in a set of variables, using a simple univariate procedure. The methodology proposed enables us to perform the multivariate test of independence of several variables, under specific conditions for the covariance structure. The methodology proposed may be used in the high-dimensional ...
Regularization Methods for High-Dimensional Data as a Tool for Seafood Traceabi...
Yokochi, Clara; Bispo, Regina; Ricardo, Fernando; Calado, RicardoSeafood traceability, needed to regulate food safety, control fisheries, combat fraud, and prevent jeopardizing public health from harvesting in polluted locations, depends heavily on the prediction of the geographic origin of seafood. When the available datasets to study traceability are high-dimensional, standard classic statistical models fail. Under these circumstances, proper alternative methods are needed...
Impacts of acute hypoxia on the short-snouted seahorse metabolism and behaviour
Gomes, Matilde; Lopes, Vanessa M.; Mai, Monica G.; Paula, José R.; Bispo, Regina; Batista, Hugo; Barraca, Catarina; Baylina, Núria; Rosa, RuiThe authors would also like to express their gratitude to Oceanário de Lisboa and Aquário Vasco da Gama, and to Filipa Faleiro, António Gomes and José Pereira for the availability to support this work. project grant to M.S.P.

Using spatial point process models, clustering and space partitioning to reconf...
Bispo, Regina; Vieira, Francisca G.; Yokochi, Clara; Marques, Filipe J.; Espadinha-Cruz, Pedro; Penha, Alexandre; Grilo, AntónioPublisher Copyright: © 2023, The Author(s).; Fire stations (FS) are typically non-uniformly distributed across space, and their service area is, in general, defined based on administrative boundaries. Since the location of FS may considerably influence the readiness and the effectiveness of the provided services, national and regional governments need research-based information to adequately plan where to estab...
Response of vertebrate scavengers to power line and road rights-of-way and its ...
Bernardino, Joana; Bispo, Regina; Martins, Ricardo C.; Santos, Sara Maria; Moreira, FranciscoSFRH/BD/117845/2016 IF/01053/2015 UIDB/00297/2020; Linear infrastructures, such as power lines and roads, are an important source of bird mortality. However, little is known on the potential effect of these infrastructures on local scavenger guilds, their foraging activity and the resulting bird carcass removal patterns. This is an important source of bias in studies aiming to quantify bird fatalities due to li...
