Polypharmacy Associated with Cognitive Decline in Newly Diagnosed Parkinson’s Disease: A Cross-Sectional Study

open access: yesDementia and Geriatric Cognitive Disorders Extra, 2019
Aims: Polypharmacy is well known to affect cognitive function in community-dwelling older adults. However, the effect of polypharmacy on cognitive function in patients with newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease remains unknown.

Nonlinear neurobiological probability weighting functions for aversive outcomes [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2008
While mainstream economic models assume that individuals treat probabilities objectively, many people tend to overestimate the likelihood of improbable events and underestimate the likelihood of probable events. However, a biological account for why probabilities would be treated this way does not yet exist.

A shocking experiment [PDF]

open access: yesJudgment and Decision Making, 2007
We study whether probability weighting is observed when individuals are presented with a series of choices between lotteries consisting of real non-monetary adverse outcomes, electric shocks.

The variable precision method for elicitation of probability weighting functions

open access: yesDecision Support Systems, 2020
Abstract This study introduces a nonparametric method to elicit decision weights under prospect theory. These weights carry the attitudes and subjective beliefs of individuals toward risks and uncertainties. Our variable precision method adopts a dynamic mechanism that can elicit the measuring points of individual probability weighting flexibly ...

An adaptive a priori SNR estimator for perceptual speech enhancement

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Audio, Speech, and Music Processing, 2019
In this paper, an adaptive averaging a priori SNR estimation employing critical band processing is proposed. The proposed method modifies the current decision-directed a priori SNR estimation to achieve faster tracking when SNR changes.

Salient Ship Detection via Background Prior and Foreground Constraint in Remote Sensing Images

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Automatic ship detection in complicated maritime background is a challenging task in the field of optical remote sensing image interpretation and analysis. In this paper, we propose a novel and reliable ship detection framework based on a visual saliency

Early Body Mass Index z‐Score Change and Resolution of Severe Malnutrition in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia in a Low‐Income Setting: A Prospective Single‐Arm Extension Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...

Range-Fixed Trade-Off Method: A Preference Elicitation Approach Considering the Dependence of Probability Weighting on Outcome Range

open access: yesSystems
Among existing preference elicitation methods, the trade-off method offers an advantage over others in mitigating the influence of probability weighting on preferences, as it does not require assuming a specific form for the probability weighting ...

A Combined Weighting Method Based on Hybrid of Interval Evidence Fusion and Random Sampling

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2017
Due to the complexity of system and lack of expertise, epistemic uncertainties may present in the experts’ judgment on the importance of certain indices during group decision-making.

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...
