Accuracy of predicting epidemic outbreaks

Physical Review E, 2022
During the outbreak of a virus, perhaps the greatest concern is the future evolution of the epidemic: How many people will be infected and which regions will be affected the most? The accurate prediction of an epidemic enables targeted disease countermeasures (e.g., allocating medical staff and quarantining).

Improving Predictive Accuracy in Elections

Big Data, 2017
The problem of accurately predicting vote counts in elections is considered in this article. Typically, small-sample polls are used to estimate or predict election outcomes. In this study, a machine-learning hybrid approach is proposed. This approach utilizes multiple sets of static data sources, such as voter registration data, and dynamic data ...

Test Accuracy and Predicting Outcome

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1986
To the Editor. —In his recent editorial, Dr Guyton 1 emphasized the dangers of attending only to the accuracy of a test to assess visual function behind opacities. He indicated a strong concern with mechanisms responsible for overestimates of postoperative acuity (false-positives) and suggested recommendations for future investigations.

Accuracy of protein flexibility predictions

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 1994
AbstractProtein structural flexibility is important for catalysis, binding, and allostery. Flexibility has been predicted from amino acid sequence with a sliding window averaging technique and applied primarily to epitope search. New prediction parameters were derived from 92 refined protein structures in an unbiased selection of the Protein Data Bank ...

Accuracy of protein hydropathy predictions

International Journal of Data Mining and Bioinformatics, 2010
Hydropathy is a dominant force in protein folding. Sequence-based hydropathy predictions are widely used, without knowledge about their accuracy and reliability. We investigated the prediction accuracy of 56 hydropathy scales by correlating predicted values with the accessible surface area in known protein structures.
