Characterization of Model Uncertainty for the Vertical Pullout Capacity of Helical Anchors in Cohesive Soils

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
This paper conducts coupled Eulerian–Lagrangian (CEL) analysis to characterize the model uncertainty of using the cylindrical shear method (CSM) to predict the pullout capacity of helical anchors in cohesive soils.

Model Uncertainty and Selection of Risk Models for Left-Truncated and Right-Censored Loss Data

open access: yesRisks, 2023
Insurance loss data are usually in the form of left-truncation and right-censoring due to deductibles and policy limits, respectively. This paper investigates the model uncertainty and selection procedure when various parametric models are constructed to

Re‐Irradiation in Pediatric Diffuse Midline Glioma: A Multi‐Institutional Retrospective Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with recurrent diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs) have limited therapeutic options at recurrence. Re‐irradiation (RT2) may be used at progression, but with uncertainty about the benefit. Methods We conducted a multi‐institutional retrospective study of children aged < 18 with DMG treated at three centers (Toronto, Canada ...

Measuring the Uncertainty of Predictions in Deep Neural Networks with Variational Inference

open access: yesSensors, 2020
We present a novel approach for training deep neural networks in a Bayesian way. Compared to other Bayesian deep learning formulations, our approach allows for quantifying the uncertainty in model parameters while only adding very few additional ...

The Impact of a Regional Nuclear Conflict between India and Pakistan: Two Views

open access: yesJournal for Peace and Nuclear Disarmament, 2021
The severity of climatic effects of a regional nuclear conflict between India and Pakistan, involving the use of a hundred Hiroshima-scale nuclear weapons, is contested between two groups; Mills et al.

Comparison of Deterministic and Probabilistic Variational Data Assimilation Methods Using Snow and Streamflow Data Coupled in HBV Model for Upper Euphrates Basin

open access: yesGeosciences, 2023
The operation of upstream reservoirs in mountainous regions fed by snowmelt is highly challenging. This is partly due to scarce information given harsh topographic conditions and a lack of monitoring stations. In this sense, snow observations from remote

Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas in Children and Adolescents: Expert Recommendations

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas (SPN) is a rare low‐grade malignant exocrine pancreatic tumor, mostly discovered during the second decade of life in females, with a very good prognosis, provided microscopically complete surgical excision is achieved.

Improving Re-Identification by Estimating and Utilizing Diverse Uncertainty Types for Embeddings

open access: yesAlgorithms
In most re-identification approaches, embedding vectors are compared to identify the best match for a given query. However, this comparison does not take into account whether the encoded information in the embedding vectors was extracted reliably from ...

Bayesian Model Averaging and Prior Sensitivity in Stochastic Frontier Analysis

open access: yesEconometrics, 2020
This paper discusses Bayesian model averaging (BMA) in Stochastic Frontier Analysis and investigates inference sensitivity to prior assumptions made about the scale parameter of (in)efficiency. We turn our attention to the “standard” prior specifications

Probabilistic Models for the Shear Strength of RC Deep Beams

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
A new shear strength determination of reinforced concrete (RC) deep beams was proposed by using a statistical approach. The Bayesian–MCMC (Markov Chain Monte Carlo) method was introduced to establish a new shear prediction model and to improve seven ...
