Value of needle confocal laser microendoscopy combined with endobronchial ultrasound bronchoscopy in the diagnosis of hilar and mediastinal lymph node lesions

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2023
Endobronchial ultrasound bronchoscopy (EBUS) and needle confocal laser endomicroscopy (nCLE) are techniques for screening benign and malignant lesions of the hilar and mediastinal lymph node (HMLN).

Consistency of a Nonword Repetition Task to Discriminate Children with and without Developmental Language Disorder in Catalan–Spanish and European Portuguese Speaking Children

open access: yesChildren, 2021
Nonword repetition has been proposed as a diagnostic marker of developmental language disorder (DLD); however, the inconsistency in the ability of nonword repetition tasks (NRT) to identify children with DLD raises significant questions regarding its ...

Likelihood Ratio Testing under Measurement Errors

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
We consider the likelihood ratio test of a simple null hypothesis (with density f 0 ) against a simple alternative hypothesis (with density g 0 ) in the situation that observations X i are mismeasured due to the presence of ...

Simplifying likelihood ratios [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Internal Medicine, 2002
Likelihood ratios are one of the best measures of diagnostic accuracy, although they are seldom used, because interpreting them requires a calculator to convert back and forth between "probability" and "odds" of disease. This article describes a simpler method of interpreting likelihood ratios, one that avoids calculators, nomograms, and conversions to

Likelihood-Ratio-Based Biometric Verification [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology, 2004
This paper presents results on optimal similarity measures for biometric verification based on fixed-length feature vectors. First, we show that the verification of a single user is equivalent to the detection problem, which implies that for single-user verification the likelihood ratio is optimal.

The influence of deviating conditions on levee failure rates

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, 2022
This study introduces a method for assessing the annual failure rate of levees based on information from historical floods, while also considering the return period of these past events.

The Laplace Likelihood Ratio Test for Heteroscedasticity

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2011
It is shown that the likelihood ratio test for heteroscedasticity, assuming the Laplace distribution, gives good results for Gaussian and fat-tailed data.

Fractal analysis for osteoporosis: a likelihood ratio approach

open access: yesActa Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2010
Based on the traditional fractal theory and on the paper of Stehlík, (2009) the range of fractal dimension of osteoporosis vertebras is analysed. First we give an insight into the field of fractals and the usa­ge of fractals in medicine.

Discrete Likelihood Ratio Order for Power Series Distribution

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Estadística, 2014
It is well-known that some discrete distributions belong to the power series distribution (PSD) family, so it seems useful to study conditions to establish the discrete likelihood ratio order for this family.
