“…There is a vast literature on recent applications of the Jensen-Shannon divergence, for instance it appears exemplarily in Kvitsiani et al [208] for finding connections between the circuit-level function of different interneuron types in regulating the flow of information and the behavioural functions served by the cortical circuits, in Xu et al ( 2014) for browsing and exploration of video sequences, in Jenkinson et al [168] for the fundamental understanding of the epigenome that leads to a powerful approach for studying its role in disease and aging, in Martin et al [250] for the implementation of an evolutionary-based global localization filter for mobile robots, in Suo et al [354] for the revelation of critical regulators of cell identity in mice, in Abante et al [2] for the detection of biologically significant differences in DNA methylation between alleles associated with local changes in genetic sequences -for a better understanding of the mechanism of complex human diseases, in Afek et al [5] for revealing mechanisms by which mismatches can recruit transcription factors for modulating replication and repair activities in cells, in Alaiz-Rodriguez & Parnell [10] for the quantification of stability in feature selection and ranking algorithms, in Biau et al [53] for generative adversarial networks (GANs) in artificial intelligence and machine learning, in Carre et al [74] for the standardization of brain magnetic resonance (MR) images, in Chakraborty et al [75] for hierarchical clustering in foreign exchange FOREX markets (e.g. in periods of major international crises), in Chong et al [87] as part of a web-based platform for comprehensive analysis of microbiome data outputs, in Cui et al [101] for modelling latent friend recommendation in online social media, in Gholami & Hodtani [134] for refinements of safety-and-security-targeted location verification systems in wireless communication networks (e.g in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs) and vehicular technology), in Guo & Yuan [146] for accurate abnormality classification in semi-supervised Wireless Capsule Endoscopy (WCE) for digestive system cancer diagnosis, in Jiang et al [169] for the training of deep neural discriminative and generative networks used for designing and evaluating photonic devices, in Kartal et al [186] for uncovering the relationship between some genomic features and cell type-specific methylome diversity, in Laszlovszky et al [210] for investigating mechanisms of basal forebrain neurons which modulate synaptic plasticity,cortical processing, brain states and oscillations, in Lawson et al [211] for the improved understanding of some genetic circuit...…”
