Heterogeneity estimates in a biased world [PDF]
Meta-analyses typically quantify heterogeneity of results, thus providing information about the consistency of the investigated effect across studies. Numerous heterogeneity estimators have been devised. Past evaluations of their performance typically presumed lack of bias in the set of studies being meta-analysed, which is often unrealistic.

The Poisson maximum likelihood (PML) is used to estimate the coefficients of the Poisson regression model (PRM). Since the resulting estimators are sensitive to outliers, different studies have provided robust Poisson regression estimators to alleviate ...

Measurements of Quantum Hamiltonians with Locally-Biased Classical Shadows [PDF]
Obtaining precise estimates of quantum observables is a crucial step of variational quantum algorithms. We consider the problem of estimating expectation values of quantum Hamiltonians, obtained on states prepared on a quantum computer.

The beta Liu-type estimator: simulation and application
The Beta Regression Model (BRM) is commonly used when analyzing data in which the dependent variable is restricted to the interval [0,1] for example proportion or probability.

Biases in fiscal multiplier estimates [PDF]
The "true" size of fiscal multipliers is widely debated by economists and policy makers as large (small) multipliers provide arguments to expand (cut) public spending. Within a meta-analytical framework, we ask whether the large observed variance in multiplier estimates can be explained by the national imprint and various author incentives.

Assortative Mating Biases Marker-based Heritability Estimators [PDF]
AbstractMany complex traits are subject to assortative mating (AM), with recent molecular genetic findings confirming longstanding theoretical predictions that AM alters genetic architecture by inducing long range dependence across causal variants. However, all marker-based heritability estimators assume mating is random.

Comparing optimal convergence rate of stochastic mesh and least squares method for Bermudan option pricing [PDF]
We analyze the stochastic mesh method (SMM) as well as the least squares method (LSM) commonly used for pricing Bermudan options using the standard two phase methodology.

Biased goiter prevalence estimate
Sir, There are some basic queries related to the article ‘Prevalence of Goiter in Rural Area of Belgaum District, Karnataka’(1). In the introduction the authors should have made some mention of the magnitude of the problem in Karnataka from earlier studies or should have informed that no such study is available.

The presence of outliers in observation can result in biased in parameter estimation using ordinary least square (OLS). Robust regression MM-estimator is one of the estimations methods that able to obtain a robust estimator against outliers.

Unbiased Learning-to-Rank with Biased Feedback [PDF]
Implicit feedback (e.g., clicks, dwell times, etc.) is an abundant source of data in human-interactive systems. While implicit feedback has many advantages (e.g., it is inexpensive to collect, user centric, and timely), its inherent biases are a key ...
