Supervised Classification in the Presence of Misclassified Training Data: A Monte Carlo Simulation Study in the Three Group Case

Frontiers in Psychology, 2014
Statistical classification of phenomena into observed groups is very common in the social and behavioral sciences. Statistical classification methods, however, are affected by the characteristics of the data under study. Statistical classification can be

Using DNA to evaluate field identification of cougar sex by agency staff and hunters using trained dogs

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2015
Cougar (Puma concolor) hunting has been classified typically as either selective‐hunting with the aid of dogs or nonselective‐hunting without dogs; this is based on the assumption that hunters using dogs to tree cougars can better identify sex of cougars

Misclassifications in human papillomavirus databases

Virology, 2021
We assessed the quality of human papillomavirus (HPV) sequences in GenBank by analyzing the possible presence of chimeras, "wrong-assembled" contigs and errors in taxonomy using an open-source script (HPVChimera_Gb) that compared 25 638 HPV-related nucleotide sequences in GenBank with the 221 numbered HPV types and another 220 complete HPV sequences ...

Partially Identified Prevalence Estimation under Misclassification using the Kappa Coefficient [PDF]

, 2010
We discuss a new strategy for prevalence estimation in the presence of misclassification. Our method is applicable when misclassification probabilities are unknown but independent replicate measurements are available.

Re‐Awakening Public Attention to the Silent Pandemic of Cancer Among Older Adults in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As global populations age, cancer is increasingly becoming a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among older adults, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Despite accounting for the majority of new cancer cases and deaths, older individuals remain underrepresented in cancer research, clinical guidelines, and health ...
