Adaptive Real-Time Characterisation of Composite Precursors in Manufacturing
Frontiers in Materials, 2022 This paper explores the application of a novel adaptive consolidation sensor framework for the characterisation of composite precursors. The designed framework develops material-driven test programmes in real-time and defines robust material models for ...

Annals of Medicine & Surgery, 2013 A recent paper 1 has highlighted the use of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) as a basis for creating and implementing policies by the United Kingdom government. However, RCTs are potentially difficult, costly, and complex. Therefore, this paper explores what public policy-makers can learn from medicine’s extensive experience with RCTs so that public

The capacity of adaptive group testing [PDF]
2013 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory, 2013 We define capacity for group testing problems and deduce bounds for the capacity of a variety of noisy models, based on the capacity of equivalent noisy communication channels. For noiseless adaptive group testing we prove an information-theoretic lower bound which tightens a bound of Chan et al.

Adaptive Multivariate Global Testing [PDF]
Journal of the American Statistical Association, 2014 We present a methodology for dealing with recent challenges in testing global hypotheses using multivariate observations. The proposed tests target situations, often arising in emerging applications of neuroimaging, where the sample size n is relatively small compared with the observations' dimension K.

Better Data From Better Measurements Using Computerized Adaptive Testing
Journal of Methods and Measurement in the Social Sciences, 2011 The process of constructing a fixed-length conventional test frequently focuses on maximizing internal consistency reliability by selecting test items that are of average difficulty and high discrimination (a “peaked” test).

Examining item compromise: an introduction to deterministic gated item response theory model (DGIRT)
Journal of Computer Adaptive Testing in Africa, 2023 The calibration of item parameters (difficulty, discrimination and guessing parameters) estimate may only consider the true and not the cheating abilities of examinees.
