MicroRNA Target Prediction and Validation

2012
The accurate prediction and validation of microRNA targets is essential to understanding the function of microRNAs. Computational predictions indicate that all human genes may be regulated by microRNAs, with each microRNA possibly targeting thousands of genes.

Predictive Validity of Sustas

Tourism Analysis, 2013
The goal of this research note is to establish further support for a more rigorous form of validity of the SUSTAS scale by predicting behavioral intentions of residents toward pro-sustainable behavior using structural equation modeling (SEM). The data were collected from a stratified random sample of 2,000 households in Charleston County, South ...

Cross-Validation for Prediction

Journal of Marketing Research, 1987
The authors review and critically evaluate three major approaches to cross-validation in the context of predictive validity: (1) sample-splitting, (2) resampling plans such as bootstrapping, and (3) a method that simultaneously estimates parameters and cross-validates. Because of the information loss involved and the availability of shrinkage formulas,

Cross-Validation and Multinomial Prediction

Biometrika, 1974
Good (1965) and Fienberg & Holland (1972, 1973) have addressed the problem of smoothing multinomial frequencies as one of estimation of the probabilities in the traditional multinomial probability model. Suppose the multinomial has t categories and that the corresponding observed frequencies are n1, ..., nt with In, = N. Concerned with the case when at

Validity of analogical predictions

Technological Forecasting and Social Change, 1986
Abstract Comparison-Based Prediction (CBP) is a formalized method for using analogical reasoning to generate estimates early in conceptual design and planning. Two validation studies were performed, and both showed very high predictive validity when performance data were available for the comparison systems and much lower predictive validity when the

Validity of Biorhythms for Predicting Death

The Journal of Psychology, 1982
Summary The theory of biorhythms, supported by some studies and contradicted by others, states that people's lives are affected by a physical, an emotional, and an intellectual cycle or rhythm. The present study used chi-square analyses to investigate the various possible combinations of critical and noncritical days and to test whether death tends to ...

Validation of Prediction Models

2008
The purpose of a predictive model is to provide valid outcome predictions for new patients. Essentially, the data set to develop a model is not of interest other than to learn for the future. Validation hence is an important aspect of the process of predictive modelling. An important distinction is between internal and external validation.
