Mining Structure Fragments for Smart Bundle Adjustment
In this work we show that, when using conjugate gradient solvers, there is a computational advantage in “grouping” factors corresponding to sets of points (fragments) that are co-visible by the…

Association of CHRNA5-A3-B4 SNP rs2036527 with Smoking Cessation Therapy Response in African-American Smokers
We investigated the association between CHRNA5-A3-B4 and smoking abstinence. The rs2056527(A) allele was associated with lower abstinence with active pharmacotherapy, or with nicotine gum alone but not significantly with bupropion.
