Efficient Elicitation of Utility and Probability Weighting Functions [PDF]

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2004
Elicitation methods in decision making under risk allow a researcher to infer thensubjective utilities of outcomes as well as the subjective weights of probabilities from observed preferences of an individual. An optimally efficient elicitation method is proposed, which takes into account the inevitable distortion of preferences by random errors and ...

An adaptive a priori SNR estimator for perceptual speech enhancement

EURASIP 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.

Outcome of Non-Muscle Invasive Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma Receiving Endoscopic Ablation: An Inverse Probability of Treatment Weighting Analysis

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2022
We compared the outcomes in early-stage upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) patients receiving endoscopic ablation (EA) with radical nephroureterectomy (RNU). From 2004 to 2018, cTa/T1N0M0 UTUC patients undergoing EA and RNU were enrolled.

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

Remote 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

Ethnic Differences in the Association Between SOD2 rs4880 and Hepatotoxicity in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Report From the REDIAL Consortium

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Treatment‐associated hepatotoxicity (TAH) is a common complication of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) treatment, but genetic risk factors remain poorly understood. We evaluated the SOD2 rs4880 variant in 544 children with ALL at Texas Children's Hospital. After adjusting for demographic and clinical covariates, the rs4880 C allele

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

Systems
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

Discrete 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.

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Transformations to symmetry based on the probability weighted characteristic function [PDF]

Kybernetika, 2015
We suggest a nonparametric version of the probability weighted empirical characteristic function (PWECF) introduced by Meintanis \et al.\ \\cite\meiswaall2014\ and use this PWECF in order to estimate the parameters of arbitrary transformations to symmetry. The almost sure consistency of the resulting estimators is shown. Finite-sample results for i.i.d.
