Ulisses Braga-Neto's Miscellanea

Dr. Braga-Neto's IEEE membership was elevated to the degree of Senior Member, September 2011.
The project "Theory and Application of Small-Sample Error Estimation in Genomic Signal Processing" has been funded by a 5-year NSF CAREER Award, starting March 1, 2009.
The paper

U.M. Braga-Neto and E. Dougherty, "Is Cross-Validation Valid for Small-Sample Microarray Classification?" Bioinformatics, Vol. 20, No. 3, February 2004, pp. 374-380. [PubMed]

was appointed by the publisher of the ISI Web of Knowledge as the "Fast-Breaking Paper" in the field of Computer Science for February 2006.

The following conference paper is retracted:

The book chapter

U.M. Braga-Neto and E. Dougherty, "Classification," In Genomic Signal Processing and Statistics, Edited by E. Dougherty, I. Shmulevich, J. Chen and Z. J. Wang, EURASIP Book Series on Signal Processing and Communication, Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2005. [Preprint]

has problems in Figures 3.8 and 3.9. However, none of the conclusions in the chapter changes due to these errors. Note: the preprint PDF linked above already contains the correct Figures 3.8 and 3.9.
