High Resolution Seismicity Smoothing Method for Seismic Hazard Assessment
Russian Journal of Earth SciencesA high resolution smoothing method is proposed for performing local estimates of the parameters of the Gutenberg-Richter law (GR). Using this method, the smoothing radius can be chosen large enough to ensure that the condition of applicability of GR law ...

Economica, 2016 A random walk with drift is a good univariate representation of US GDP. This paper shows, however, that US economic downturns have been associated with predictable short‐term recoveries and with changes in long‐term GDP forecasts that are substantially smaller than the initial drop.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Cyclophosphamide (CY) is associated with potentially fatal cardiotoxicity, yet no electrocardiographic indices have been established for early detection of CY‐induced cardiomyopathy. This study aimed to determine whether corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation can predict early onset of CY‐related cardiac dysfunction in pediatric ...

PREDICTED DIFFERENCES AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PREDICTIONS [PDF]
ETS Research Bulletin Series, 1950 ABSTRACTWhen K tests are given to N individuals, and for each individual there are available two criterion measures, then (1) the multiple regression weight to be applied to the standard score for each test to predict the criterion‐difference score is equal to the difference of the weights for predicting each criterion separately; (2) the difference ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives To identify predictors of chronic ITP (cITP) and to develop a model based on several machine learning (ML) methods to estimate the individual risk of chronicity at the timepoint of diagnosis. Methods We analyzed a longitudinal cohort of 944 children enrolled in the Intercontinental Cooperative immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) Study ...

Bootstrap prediction mean squared errors of unobserved states based on the Kalman filter with estimated parameters [PDF]
, 2010 Prediction intervals in State Space models can be obtained by assuming Gaussian innovations and using the prediction equations of the Kalman filter, where the true parameters are substituted by consistent estimates.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Surveillance imaging aims to detect tumour relapse before symptoms develop, but it's unclear whether earlier detection of relapse leads to better outcomes in children and young people (CYP) with medulloblastoma and ependymoma. This systematic review aims to identify relevant literature to determine the efficacy of surveillance magnetic ...
