Extensions to Mean–Geometric Mean Linking

open access: yesMathematics
Mean-geometric mean (MGM) linking is a widely used method for linking two groups within the two-parameter logistic (2PL) item response model. However, the presence of differential item functioning (DIF) can lead to biased parameter estimates using the ...

Bias Reduction in Robust Mean–Geometric Mean Linking via SIMEX

open access: yesAlgorithms
Robust mean–geometric mean (MGM) linking is a method for comparing the performance of two groups on a test involving dichotomous items and is particularly suited to settings with fixed and sparse differential item functioning (DIF).

WingShape-Warn: A Morphology-Driven Early-Warning Pipeline for Mosquito-Borne Disease Surveillance [PDF]

open access: yesInsects
Environmental stressors—including climate change, urbanisation, and pollution—are increasingly altering the wing morphology of mosquito vectors. These morphological shifts, particularly in wing geometry, can serve as early-warning indicators for mosquito

Robust-Mean–Geometric-Mean and Robust Haberman Linking with Invariant Item Discriminations Under Sparse Differential Item Functioning

open access: yesMathematics
Comparison of two or multiple groups based on dichotomous items is a central task in item response theory (IRT) linking. This article considers the two-parameter logistic scaling model under sparse differential item functioning (DIF) in item intercepts ...

Estimation of Standard Error, Linking Error, and Total Error for Robust and Nonrobust Linking Methods in the Two-Parameter Logistic Model

open access: yesStats
The two-parameter logistic (2PL) item response theory model is a statistical model for analyzing multivariate binary data. In this article, two groups are brought onto a common metric using the 2PL model using linking methods. The linking methods of mean–

REGISTRATION OF REMOTE SENSING IMAGES BASED ON FEATURE FUSION TECHNIQUES [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Intelligent Computing and Information Sciences, 2016
Geometric correction is used to correct the registration errors in remotely sensed images. These images are often compared to ground control points (GCPs) either by using an accurate map (image to map) or using another geo-referenced image (image to ...

Review of calculating the electrical conductivity of mineral aggregates from constituent conductivities

open access: yesSolid Earth Sciences, 2021
The electrical conductivity of mineral aggregates depends both on the properties of the constitutive minerals and the ways those minerals are assembled.

Petrophysical Joint Inversion Applied to Alpine Permafrost Field Sites to Image Subsurface Ice, Water, Air, and Rock Contents

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Quantification of ground ice is crucial for understanding permafrost systems and modeling their ongoing degradation. The volumetric ice content is however rarely estimated in permafrost studies, as it is particularly difficult to retrieve.
