Accuracy of predicting epidemic outbreaks
Physical Review E, 2022During 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, 2017The 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, 1986To 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.

The accuracy of preoperative orthognathic predictions
British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2004We assessed the accuracy of preoperative OPAL trade mark orthognathic predictions by retrospective analysis of 25 Class II patients who had had orthodontic treatment combined with mandibular advancement osteotomy. Preoperative and postoperative lateral cephalographs were digitised and surgical predictions generated using OPAL software.

Accuracy prediction for pedestrian detection
2017 IEEE International Conference on Image Processing (ICIP), 2017In this paper, we address the problem of predicting accuracy for pedestrian detection. We want to be able to predict the accuracy of a video analytic method without actually executing the method. We propose the use of texture descriptors and random forests to predict the accuracy of various pedestrian detection methods.

Variation and the Accuracy of Predictions
The British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, 1997I present a justification for the intuition that more-varied data are more valuable than the same number of less-varied data by showing that the more-varied data help to improve the accuracy of our predictions.

Accuracy of protein hydropathy predictions
International Journal of Data Mining and Bioinformatics, 2010Hydropathy 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.

Synthese, 1975
This paper, I am sorry to say, is deeply sceptical. It is also rather technical. And the scepticalities, I fear, are no easier to renounce than are the techni calities. The paper presents an elementary mathematical result that appears to impinge negatively on any reasonable theory of knowledge with empiricist pretensions.

Beyond Accuracy in Link Prediction
2020Link prediction has mainly been addressed as an accuracy-targeting problem in social network analysis. We discuss different perspectives on the problem considering other dimensions and effects that the link prediction methods may have on the network where they are applied.

Accuracy of protein flexibility predictions
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 1994AbstractProtein 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 ...
