Composite Goodness of Fit in Reaeration Coeffcient Modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Determination of reaeration coefficient is an important factor in surface water quality modeling as it determines the efficiency of the Streeter-Phelps model used for predicting dissolved oxygen deficit of any stream. This study compared the efficiency

Composite Goodness-of-fit Tests with Kernels

open access: yesCoRR, 2021
Model misspecification can create significant challenges for the implementation of probabilistic models, and this has led to development of a range of robust methods which directly account for this issue. However, whether these more involved methods are required will depend on whether the model is really misspecified, and there is a lack of generally ...

Problems with Fitting to the Power-Law Distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This short communication uses a simple experiment to show that fitting to a power law distribution by using graphical methods based on linear fit on the log-log scale is biased and inaccurate.

Exact goodness-of-fit testing for the Ising model

open access: yes, 2016
The Ising model is one of the simplest and most famous models of interacting systems. It was originally proposed to model ferromagnetic interactions in statistical physics and is now widely used to model spatial processes in many areas such as ecology ...

Tests of Goodness of Fit

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1963
SUMMARY An explicit account is given of a procedure for assessing goodness of fit of some observations with a hypothesis, generally known as a “test of significance”; the description is close in spirit to R. A. Fisher’s original conception. The relation of this test procedure with Bayesian procedures and with the Neyman–Pearson theory of

Preferences of Pediatric Patients and Their Caregivers for Chemotherapy‐Induced Nausea and Vomiting Control Endpoints: A Mixed Methods Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Although not always achieved, complete chemotherapy‐induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) control is the conventional goal of CINV prophylaxis. In this two‐center, mixed‐methods study, we sought to understand the preferences of adolescent patients and family caregivers for CINV control endpoints.

Pediatric Oncology Nursing Competencies in Latin America and the Caribbean: A Scoping Review to Inform Practice, Education, and Research

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nurses are central to cancer care for children and adolescents, yet no comprehensive synthesis has defined essential core competencies for pediatric oncology nursing (PON) practice internationally, particularly in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).

Goodness-of-Fit Test for the Bivariate Negative Binomial Distribution

open access: yesAxioms
When modeling real-world data, we face the challenge of determining which probability distribution best represents the data. To address this intricate problem, we rely on goodness-of-fit tests.

Health‐Related Quality of Life and Symptom Severity Among Patients With PIK3CA‐Related Overgrowth Spectrum: A Mixed‐Methods Study to Understand Real‐World Experience With Alpelisib Treatment

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background PIK3CA‐related overgrowth spectrum (PROS) includes several rare overgrowth disorders resulting from somatic gain‐of‐function mutations in PIK3CA. Despite treatment advances, including the recent approval of alpelisib for PROS in the United States, literature detailing the patient experience with PROS is limited.

A simple non-parametric goodness-of-fit test for elliptical copulas

open access: yesDependence Modeling, 2017
In this paper, we propose a simple non-parametric goodness-of-fit test for elliptical copulas of any dimension. It is based on the equality of Kendall’s tau and Blomqvist’s beta for all bivariate margins.
