Group Membership Prediction when Known Groups Consist of Unknown Subgroups:A Monte Carlo Comparison of Methods

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
Classification using standard statistical methods such as linear discriminant analysis (LDA) or logistic regression (LR) presume knowledge of group membership prior to the development of an algorithm for prediction.

Artificial intelligence prediction algorithms for refractive error onset and progression in children and adolescents: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluates the performance of artificial intelligence (AI)‐based models for predicting the onset and progression of refractive error (RE) in children and adolescents and quantitatively synthesizes their prediction accuracy.

IRT‐based response style models and related methodology: Review and commentary

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract We provide a review and commentary on recent methodological research related to item response theory (IRT) modelling of response styles in psychological measurement. Our review describes the different categories of IRT models that have been proposed, their associated assumptions and extensions, and the varying purposes they can serve.

Observer coverage and interaction rates determine the choice between design‐based and machine learning bycatch estimators for rare species

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Robust estimates of the magnitude of protected species bycatch are essential for effective fisheries management and marine conservation. Existing bycatch estimation methods typically struggle to accurately and precisely estimate the bycatch of rare species as a result of the statistical assumptions necessary to overcome infrequent encounters ...

Default Predictors in Retail Credit Scoring: Evidence from Czech Banking Data [PDF]

open access: yes
Credit to the private sector has risen rapidly in European emerging markets but its risk evaluation has been largely neglected. Using retail-loan banking data from the Czech Republic we construct two credit risk models based on logistic regression and ...

The diversity and functionality of tree‐dwelling arthropods are sustained in mixed‐species plantations compared with natural forest regeneration

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Mixed‐species plantations sustain tree‐dwelling arthropod diversity comparable to natural forests, with similar functional evenness but distinct species composition. Analyses of β‐diversity and LCBD highlight unique site contributions associated with reduced species and functional richness, as these distinct sites contain fewer yet more unique species.

Does segmentation always improve model performance in credit scoring?

open access: yes, 2012
Credit scoring allows for the credit risk assessment of bank customers. A single scoring model (scorecard) can be developed for the entire customer population, e.g. using logistic regression. However, it is often expected that segmentation, i.e. dividing

Beyond Immediate Givenness: Husserl's Content‐Apprehension Schema in Light of Merleau‐Ponty's Critique of Sensation

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract Merleau‐Ponty's Phenomenology of Perception (2012 [1945]) opens with a detailed critique of traditional philosophical accounts of sensation, generally understood as having Husserl's “content‐apprehension schema” among its targets. The schema sees perception as resulting from the interpretation (“apprehension” or “apperception”) of “raw ...

Connectivity and Selective Rural Migration

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How does infrastructure shape rural development? Using household panel data from a nationally representative sample of Chinese villages, matched to high‐resolution highway maps, we find that road expansion between 2000 and 2015 operates mainly through reallocation, with less productive farmers scaling down or exiting and more productive ...
