Capture-Recapture Models Including Covariate Effects [PDF]
American Journal of Epidemiology, 1999 Capture-recapture methods are used to estimate the incidence of a disease, using a multiple-source registry. Usually, log-linear methods are used to estimate population size, assuming that not all sources of notification are dependent. Where there are categorical covariates, a stratified analysis can be performed.

Ratio plot and ratio regression with applications to social and medical sciences
, 2016 We consider count data modeling, in particular, the zero-truncated case as it arises naturally in capture–recapture modeling as the marginal distribution of the count of identifications of the members of a target population.

Semiparametric Regression in Capture-Recapture Modelling [PDF]
, 2004 Capture-recapture models were developed to estimate survival using data arising from marking and monitoring wild animals over time. Variation in the survival process may be explained by incorporating relevant covariates.

Evaluation of Panoramic Acquisition Errors by Predoctoral Dental Students
Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.Abstract Objectives Panoramic radiography is commonly used in the management of dental‐alveolar pathology. Novice clinicians are prone to technical errors that diminish the diagnostic quality of radiographs. The objective of this study was to analyze technical errors made during panoramic exposures by third‐year (D3) dental students in order to enhance

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT With climate change, birds will face increasing thermoregulatory demands, which may alter reproductive behaviors such as offspring provisioning. Experimental studies have shown that the provisioning capacity of female tree swallows (Tachycineta bicolor) is limited by their risk of overheating. Given that parental investment strategies may vary

Failure in Motion: A Framework for Capability Erosion and Institutional Dysfunction
Strategic Change, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Drawing on the literature on capability erosion and institutional dysfunction (ID), this study develops a conceptual framework that sheds new light on how the interaction between capability erosion and ID creates conditions for business failure across borders. By articulating two dimensions of heterogeneous capability and resource erosion (i.e.

A cautionary note on using the scale prior for the parameter N of a binomial distribution [PDF]
, 2014 Statistical analysis of ecological data may require the estimation of the size of a population, or of the number of species with a certain population. This task frequently reduces to estimating the discrete parameter N representing the number of trials ...

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Early detection of melanoma significantly boosts patient survival rates. Deep learning has demonstrated dermatologist‐level accuracy in assessing pigmented skin lesions by analysing images at the pixel level. However, these neural networks may face challenges with ‘real‐life’ images due to limited training data and image artefacts ...

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2015 Efficiently obtaining high-quality data on animal populations and communities is paramount for ecological and conservation studies. In many instances these data come from live-trapping, the success of which depends on various factors, such as the ...

Population dynamics of Townsend's big‐eared bats: effect of age and drought on survival
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We estimated age‐specific yearly survival of female Townsend's big‐eared bats in Inyo and Mono Counties, California. We found that both juvenile and adult survival were negatively impacted by drought, and that detection probability was lower for hand‐recapture than for bats detected via pass‐through antenna arrays.
