Binary Classifier Calibration using an Ensemble of Near Isotonic Regression Models. [PDF]
Proc IEEE Int Conf Data Min, 2016 Learning accurate probabilistic models from data is crucial in many practical tasks in data mining. In this paper we present a new non-parametric calibration method called \textit{ensemble of near isotonic regression} (ENIR). The method can be considered

Identifying change points in a covariate effect on time-to-event analysis with reduced isotonic regression. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Isotonic regression is a useful tool to investigate the relationship between a quantitative covariate and a time-to-event outcome. The resulting non-parametric model is a monotonic step function of a covariate X and the steps can be viewed as change ...

Relaxivity of Gadobutrol and Gadoteric Acid in Cerebrospinal Fluid at 3T. [PDF]
Magn Reson MedABSTRACT Purpose The aim was to estimate T1 relaxivity of gadobutrol and gadoteric acid in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) at 3T, to support research on CSF‐flow and the glymphatic system in humans utilizing T1 mapping after intrathecal injection. Methods Using a phantom, relaxivity was estimated for gadobutrol and gadoteric acid in lumbar CSF and an ...

Dual active-set algorithm for optimal 3-monotone regression [PDF]
Известия Саратовского университета. Новая серия: Математика. Механика. Информатика, 2022 The paper considers a shape-constrained optimization problem of constructing monotone regression which has gained much attention over the recent years. This paper presents the results of constructing the nonlinear regression with $3$-monotone constraints.
