Boosting insights in insurance tariff plans with tree-based machine learning methods [PDF]
Pricing actuaries typically operate within the framework of generalized linear models (GLMs). With the upswing of data analytics, our study puts focus on machine learning methods to develop full tariff plans built from both the frequency and severity of ...

HRF estimation improves sensitivity of fMRI encoding and decoding models [PDF]
Extracting activation patterns from functional Magnetic Resonance Images (fMRI) datasets remains challenging in rapid-event designs due to the inherent delay of blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal. The general linear model (GLM) allows to estimate

Bacteria Associated with Granulomatous Lobular Mastitis and the Potential for Personalized Therapy
Granulomatous lobular mastitis (GLM), also known as idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM), is a chronic inflammatory lesion of the breast. The incidence of GLM has been increasing in recent years, especially among young women.

When a mean can be meaningless: evaluating mosquito infections with Plasmodium parasites
Several malaria control measures aim to reduce infection levels in mosquitoes, and evaluation of these measures usually relies on experimental infections of mosquitoes or evaluation in field populations.

A comparison of spike time prediction and receptive field mapping with point process generalized linear models, Wiener-Voltera kernels, and spike-triggered averaging methods [PDF]
Poster presentation: Characterizing neuronal encoding is essential for understanding information processing in the brain. Three methods are commonly used to characterize the relationship between neural spiking activity and the features of putative ...

Dir‐GLM: A Bayesian GLM With Data‐Driven Reference Distribution
ABSTRACT The recently developed semi‐parametric generalized linear model (SPGLM) offers more flexibility as compared to the classical GLM by including the baseline or reference distribution of the response as an additional parameter in the model.
