Generalized Linear Models for Flexible Parametric Modeling of the Hazard Function [PDF]
Background. Parametric modeling of survival data is important, and reimbursement decisions may depend on the selected distribution. Accurate predictions require sufficiently flexible models to describe adequately the temporal evolution of the hazard ...

Edge Sharpness Assessment by Parametric Modeling: Application to Magnetic Resonance Imaging [PDF]
In biomedical imaging, edge sharpness is an important yet often overlooked image quality metric. In this work, a semi-automatic method to quantify edge sharpness in the presence of significant noise is presented with application to magnetic resonance ...

Predicting energy consumption for residential buildings using ANN through parametric modeling
Controlling buildings energy consumption is a great practical significance. During early design stage, accurate and rapid prediction of energy consumption could provide a quantitative basis for energy-saving designs.

Analysis of parametric and non-parametric option pricing models
In this paper, a closed-form analytical solution of option price under the Bi-Heston model is derived. Through empirical analysis, the advantages and disadvantages of the parametric pricing model are compared and analysed with those of the non-parametric model.

The promise of performative: Relational, genetic and scripted models in architectural design [PDF]
This paper investigates the role of performative models within the context of architectural design. Understanding the performances of the built environment can be postulated in rather different manners.

Parametrized Measure Models [PDF]
We develope a new and general notion of parametric measure models and statistical models on an arbitrary sample space $Ω$ which does not assume that all measures of the model have the same null sets. This is given by a diffferentiable map from the parameter manifold $M$ into the set of finite measures or probability measures on $Ω$, respectively, which

Multiobjective Optimization Method of Solid Rocket Motor Finocyl Grain Based on Surrogate Model
To improve the performance of a solid rocket motor (SRM), a multiobjective optimal design method that can consider the structural integrity, internal ballistic performance, and loading performance of the SRM was proposed based on parametric modeling and ...

Parametric and semi-parametric modelling of vacation expenditures [PDF]
We analyse several limited dependent variable models explaining the budget share that Dutch families spend on vacations. To take account of the substantial number of zero shares, two types of models are used. The first is the single-equation censored regression model.
