Adams Conditioning and Likelihood Ratio Transfer Mediated Inference
Bayesian inference as applied in a legal setting is about belief transfer and involves a plurality of agents and communication protocols. A forensic expert (FE) may communicate to a trier of fact (TOF) first its value of a certain likelihood ratio ...

On the Distribution of the Likelihood Ratio
A classical result due to Wilks [1] on the distribution of the likelihood ratio $\lambda$ is the following. Under suitable regularity conditions, if the hypothesis that a parameter $\theta$ lies on an $r$-dimensional hyperplane of $k$-dimensional space is true, the distribution of $-2 \log \lambda$ is asymptotically that of $\chi^2$ with $k - r ...

Estimation of a Likelihood Ratio Ordered Family of Distributions [PDF]
Consider bivariate observations $(X_1,Y_1), \ldots, (X_n,Y_n) \in \mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{R}$ with unknown conditional distributions $Q_x$ of $Y$, given that $X = x$.

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.

On the Distribution of the Likelihood Ratio
In an investigation of the distribution of the likelihood ratio $\lambda$, Wilks [3] proved, under certain regularity conditions, that $-2 \ln \lambda$ is, except for terms of order $1/\sqrt n$, distributed like $\chi^2$ with $k - m$ degrees of freedom, where $k$ is the dimension of the parameter space $\Omega$ of admissible hypotheses and $m$ is the ...

Likelihood Ratio Exponential Families
The exponential family is well known in machine learning and statistical physics as the maximum entropy distribution subject to a set of observed constraints, while the geometric mixture path is common in MCMC methods such as annealed importance sampling.

Comparative Drug Response Profiling in Neuroblastoma Cell Lines and Patient‐Derived Tumor Organoids
ABSTRACT High‐risk neuroblastoma remains a leading cause of pediatric cancer mortality, and improved preclinical models are needed to guide therapeutic developments. We screened seven high‐risk neuroblastoma cell lines and three patient‐derived tumor organoids with 528 compounds alongside bone marrow controls, and compared them with external datasets ...

Biostatistics series module 7: The statistics of diagnostic tests
Crucial therapeutic decisions are based on diagnostic tests. Therefore, it is important to evaluate such tests before adopting them for routine use. Although things such as blood tests, cultures, biopsies, and radiological imaging are obvious diagnostic ...
