Stronger instruments via integer programming in an observational study of late preterm birth outcomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In an optimal nonbipartite match, a single population is divided into matched pairs to minimize a total distance within matched pairs. Nonbipartite matching has been used to strengthen instrumental variables in observational studies of treatment effects,

Efficiency of template matching methods for Multiple-Point Statistics simulations

open access: yesApplied Computing and Geosciences, 2021
Almost all Multiple-Point Statistic (MPS) methods use internally a template matching method to select patterns that best match conditioning data. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the performances of ten of the most frequently used template ...

A genetic approach to Markovian characterisation of H.264 scalable video [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We propose an algorithm for multivariate Markovian characterisation of H.264/SVC scalable video traces at the sub-GoP (Group of Pictures) level. A genetic algorithm yields Markov models with limited state space that accurately capture temporal and inter ...

Spatiotemporal matching between medical resources and population ageing in China from 2008 to 2017

open access: yesBMC Public Health, 2020
Background Globally, the increasingly severe population ageing issue has been creating challenges in terms of medical resource allocation and public health policies. The aim of this study is to address the space-time trends of the population-ageing rate (

Predictive Quantization and Symbolic Dynamics

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2022
Capturing long-term statistics of signals and time series is important for modeling recurrent phenomena, especially when such recurrences are a-periodic and can be characterized by the approximate repetition of variable length motifs, such as patterns in

Robust pedestrian detection and tracking in crowded scenes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this paper, a robust computer vision approach to detecting and tracking pedestrians in unconstrained crowded scenes is presented. Pedestrian detection is performed via a 3D clustering process within a region-growing framework.
