Development of approaches to estimation of risk parameters
Nuclear Energy and Technology, 2017 To a great extent, safety is ensured in the design and operation of hazardous production facilities (HPF) through identifying, analyzing and predicting the risk of accidents (failures), involving, where possible, a more complete quantitative risk ...

Estimation of absolute risk for fracture
Nippon Ronen Igakkai Zasshi. Japanese Journal of Geriatrics, 2009 Osteoporosis treatment aims to prevent fractures and maintain the QOL of the elderly. However, persons at high risk of future fracture cannot be effectively identified on the basis of bone density (BMD) alone, although BMD is used as an diagnostic criterion. Therefore, the WHO recommended that absolute risk for fracture (10-year probability of fracture)

Consistent estimation of the filtering and marginal smoothing distributions in nonparametric hidden Markov models [PDF]
, 2015 In this paper, we consider the filtering and smoothing recursions in nonparametric finite state space hidden Markov models (HMMs) when the parameters of the model are unknown and replaced by estimators.
