Quantified Self in the Washington Post
[…] individual paths to self-digitization. Topics include, according to the group invite: behavior monitoring, location tracking, digitizing body info and non-invasive probes. "Don't you think it's kind of obvious that if you step on a scale, there should be something that sends the information to your computer?" asks Gary Wolf, a contributing editor at Wired magazine and one of Quantified Self's co-founders. "Isn't it ridiculous to think that blood pressure shouldn't be measured at least once a […] read

"Hook"-calibration of GeneChip-microarrays: Theory and algorithm
[…] hook-calibration method which co-processes the log-difference (delta) and -sum (sigma) of the perfect match (PM) and mismatch (MM) probe-intensities. The MM probes are utilized as an internal reference which is subjected to the same hybridization law as the PM, however with modified characteristics. After sequence-specific affinity correction the method fits the Langmuir-adsorption model to the smoothed delta-versus-sigma plot. The geometrical dimensions of this so-called hook-curve […] read
