Adopting New Machine Learning Approaches on Cox’s Partial Likelihood Parameter Estimation for Predictive Maintenance Decisions

Machines
The Proportional Hazards Model (PHM) under a Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM) policy is used by asset-intensive industries to predict failure rate, reliability function, and maintenance decisions based on vital covariates data.

Trends in the Use of Nephron-Sparing Surgery over 7 Years: An Analysis Using the R.E.N.A.L. Nephrometry Scoring System. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
To analyze trends in the use of partial nephrectomy, we evaluated which individual factors of renal nephrometry score (RNS) influenced the operative approach bi-annually from 2008 to 2014.We performed a retrospective review of renal cell carcinoma ...

Dexamethasone for Chemotherapy‐Induced Nausea and Vomiting Prevention in Pediatric Patients: International Consensus

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background An international Delphi panel of experts developed consensus statements to delineate the circumstances where the risks of dexamethasone as an antiemetic do and do not outweigh its benefits. Procedure Experts in supportive care of pediatric patients were invited to participate.

Beta Autoregressive Moving Average Model with the Aranda-Ordaz Link Function

Axioms
In this work, we introduce an extension of the so-called beta autoregressive moving average (βARMA) models. βARMA models consider a linear dynamic structure for the conditional mean of a beta distributed variable. The conditional mean is connected to the

A Two-Phase Maximum-Likelihood Sequence Estimation for Receivers with Partial CSI

, 2013
The optimality of the conventional maximum likelihood sequence estimation (MLSE), also known as the Viterbi Algorithm (VA), relies on the assumption that the receiver has perfect knowledge of the channel coefficients or channel state information (CSI ...

Adherence to Protocol Recommendations for Children With Wilms Tumour in Two Consecutive Studies in the United Kingdom and Ireland—Does Variation Matter?

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Wilms tumour (WT) has excellent event‐free and overall survival (OS). However, small differences exist between countries participating in the same international study. This led us to examine variation in adherence to protocol recommendations as a potential contributing factor.
