The boundary conditions of the liking bias in moral character judgments
Scientific Reports, 2022 Recent research has shown that moral character judgments are prone to the liking bias—well-liked people are seen as morally superior to disliked or neutral ones.

Examining Potential Boundary Bias Effects in Kernel Smoothing on Equating: An Introduction for the Adaptive and Epanechnikov Kernels. [PDF]
Appl Psychol Meas, 2015 Test equating is a method of making the test scores from different test forms of the same assessment comparable. In the equating process, an important step involves continuizing the discrete score distributions. In traditional observed-score equating, this step is achieved using linear interpolation (or an unscaled uniform kernel).

Transformations to Reduce Boundary Bias in Kernel Density Estimation [PDF]
Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1994 SUMMARY We consider kernel estimation of a univariate density whose support is a compact interval. If the density is non-zero at either boundary, then the usual kernel estimator can be seriously biased. ‘Reflection’ at a boundary removes some bias, but unless the first derivative of the density is 0 at the boundary the estimator with ...

Mitigating Class-Boundary Label Uncertainty to Reduce Both Model Bias and Variance [PDF]
ACM Transactions on Knowledge Discovery From Data, 2021 The study of model bias and variance with respect to decision boundaries is critically important in supervised learning and artificial intelligence. There is generally a tradeoff between the two, as fine-tuning of the decision boundary of a classification model to accommodate more boundary training samples (i.e., higher model complexity) may improve ...

Multivariate bias correction of regional climate model boundary conditions
Climate Dynamics, 2023 AbstractImproving modeling capacities requires a better understanding of both the physical relationship between the variables and climate models with a higher degree of skill than is currently achieved by Global Climate Models (GCMs). Although Regional Climate Models (RCMs) are commonly used to resolve finer scales, their application is restricted by ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 The diurnal cycle is often poorly reproduced in global climate model (GCM) simulations, particularly in terms of rainfall frequency and amplitude. While improvements in the regional climate model (RCM) with bias‐corrected boundaries have been reported in

Vital sign measurements demonstrate terminal digit bias and boundary effects
EMA - Emergency Medicine AustralasiaAbstractObjectiveThe measurement and recording of vital signs may be impacted by biases, including preferences for even and round numbers. However, other biases, such as variation due to defined numerical boundaries (also known as boundary effects), may be present in vital signs data and have not yet been investigated in a medical setting.

Tunable surface electromagnetic waves at a graphene–hypercrystal boundary under magnetic bias
Scientific ReportsTransverse magnetic (TM) and transverse electric (TE) surface electromagnetic waves supported by a graphene–hypercrystal interface are studied in the presence of an external static magnetic field. The system consists of a graphene monolayer placed at the

Beta Kernel Estimator for a Cumulative Distribution Function with Bounded Support [PDF]
Journal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2023 Kernel estimation of the cumulative distribution function (CDF), when the support of the data is bounded, suffers from bias at the boundaries. To solve this problem, we introduce a new estimator for the CDF with support (0,1) based on the beta kernel ...
