Reliable Prediction Errors for Deep Neural Networks Using Test-Time Dropout [PDF]
, 2019 While the use of deep learning in drug discovery is gaining increasing attention, the lack of methods to compute reliable errors in prediction for Neural Networks prevents their application to guide decision making in domains where identifying unreliable predictions is essential, e.g. precision medicine. Here, we present a framework to compute reliable

Predictability Tests Robust against Parameter Instability [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We consider Wald type statistics designed for joint predictability and structural break testing based on the instrumentation method of Phillips and Magdalinos (2009). We show that under the assumption of nonstationary predictors: (i) the tests based on the OLS estimators converge to a nonstandard limiting distribution which depends on the nuisance ...

Population and species neighbor identity impact trait–trait relationships and plant performance
Population Ecology, EarlyView.We evaluated how populations and species identity influence plant performance and trait outcomes in mixtures, and assessed trait variation among populations of two forb species native to the western United States (Dieteria canescens and Heterotheca villosa) following three interaction treatments (single‐population monoculture, two‐population mixture ...

The role of ultrasound in the prediction of successful induction of labour
Advances in Human Biology, 2019 Background: So far, there has not been conducted the study in Iran about the role of ultrasound in the prediction of successful induction of labour. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the role of sonographic parameters that may help ...

From Values to Opinions: Predicting Human Behaviors and Stances Using Value-Injected Large Language Models [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Being able to predict people's opinions on issues and behaviors in realistic scenarios can be helpful in various domains, such as politics and marketing. However, conducting large-scale surveys like the European Social Survey to solicit people's opinions on individual issues can incur prohibitive costs.

Effects of chronic browsing on life‐history traits of an irruptive large herbivore population
Population Ecology, EarlyView.This study aimed to determine the relationship between diet quality, body mass, and size (hind foot length), and female reproduction and sought to identify the mechanism by which high density under severe food limitations is maintained. Our results demonstrated that sika deer introduced to Nakanoshima Island have maintained high densities through high ...

Derivation of Generalized Equations for the Predictive Value of Sequential Screening Tests [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Using Bayes' Theorem, we derive generalized equations to determine the positive and negative predictive value of screening tests undertaken sequentially. Where a is the sensitivity, b is the specificity, $\phi$ is the pre-test probability, the combined positive predictive value, $\rho(\phi)$, of $n$ serial positive tests, is described by: $\rho(\phi)

Is Genetic Testing of Value in Predicting and Treating Obesity? [PDF]
North Carolina Medical Journal, 2013 Obesity is a multifactorial disease resulting from the interaction between genetic factors and lifestyle. Identification of rare genetic variations with strong effects on obesity has been useful in diagnosing and designing personalized therapy for early-onset or syndromic obesity.
