Error rates in SARS-CoV-2 testing examined with Bayes' theorem [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has created a demand for large scale testing, as part of the effort to understand and control transmission. It is important to quantify the error rates of test equipment under field conditions, which might differ significantly ...

Application of Bayes' Theorem in Valuating Depression Tests Performance [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
The validity of clinical diagnoses is a fundamental topic in clinical psychology, because now there are some political administrations, as the IOM or the U.K. government, which are focusing on best evidence-based practice in clinical psychology. The most

State retrieval beyond Bayes' retrodiction [PDF]

open access: yesQuantum, 2023
In the context of irreversible dynamics, associating to a physical process its intuitive reverse can result to be a quite ambiguous task. It is a standard choice to define the reverse process using Bayes' theorem, but, in general, this choice is not ...

Wavelength-Resolution SAR Change Detection Using Bayes’ Theorem

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2020
-This article presents Bayes' theorem for wavelength-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) change detection method development. Different change detection methods can be derived using Bayes' theorem in combination with the target model, clutter-plus ...

Decision algorithms and flow graphs; a rough set approach

open access: yesJournal of Telecommunications and Information Technology, 2003
This paper concerns some relationship between Bayes` theorem and rough sets. It is revealed that any decision algorithm satisfies Bayes` theorem, without referring to either prior or posterior probabilities inherently associated with classical Bayesian ...
