Demand Forecasting for Platelet Usage: from Univariate Time Series to Multivariate Models [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Platelet products are both expensive and have very short shelf lives. As usage rates for platelets are highly variable, the effective management of platelet demand and supply is very important yet challenging. The primary goal of this paper is to present an efficient forecasting model for platelet demand at Canadian Blood Services (CBS).

Vehicle Noise: Comparison of Loudness Ratings in the Field and the Laboratory [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Objective: Distorted loudness perception is one of the main complaints of hearing aid users. Being able to measure loudness perception correctly in the clinic is essential for fitting hearing aids. For this, experiments in the clinic should be able to reflect and capture loudness perception as in everyday-life situations.
