Bootstrap Testing of the Rank of a Matrix via Least Squared Constrained Estimation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In order to test if an unknown matrix has a given rank (null hypothesis), we consider the family of statistics that are minimum squared distances between an estimator and the manifold of fixed-rank matrix.

Improved Outcomes for Older Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults With Neuroblastoma in the Post‐Immunotherapy Era: An Updated Report From the International Neuroblastoma Risk Group

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background We describe clinical and biologic characteristics of neuroblastoma in older children, adolescents, and young adults (OCAYA); describe survival outcomes in the post‐immunotherapy era; and identify if there is an age cut‐off that best discriminates outcomes.

Local rank tests in a multivariate nonparametric relationship [PDF]

open access: yes
Consider a multivariate nonparametric model where the unknown vector of functions depends on two sets of explanatory variables. For a fixed level of one set of explanatory variables, we provide consistent statistical tests, called local rank tests, to ...

Differentially Private Nonparametric Hypothesis Testing

open access: yes, 2019
Hypothesis tests are a crucial statistical tool for data mining and are the workhorse of scientific research in many fields. Here we study differentially private tests of independence between a categorical and a continuous variable.

Rank Based Tests for Testing the Constancy of the Regression Coefficients Against Random Walk Alternatives

open access: yesOperations Research and Decisions, 2011
A class of approximately locally most powerful type tests based on ranks of residuals is suggested for testing the hypothesis that the regression coefficient is constant in a standard regression model against the alternatives that a random walk process ...

A Jackknife Correction to a Test for Cointegration Rank

open access: yesEconometrics, 2015
This paper investigates the performance of a jackknife correction to a test for cointegration rank in a vector autoregressive system. The limiting distributions of the jackknife-corrected statistics are derived and the critical values of these ...

Smoothed nonparametric two-sample tests

open access: yes, 2017
We propose new smoothed median and the Wilcoxon's rank sum test. As is pointed out by Maesono et al.(2016), some nonparametric discrete tests have a problem with their significance probability. Because of this problem, the selection of the median and the

Psychological Safety Among Interprofessional Pediatric Oncology Teams in Germany: A Nationwide Survey

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Psychological safety (PS) is essential for teamwork, communication, and patient safety in complex healthcare environments. In pediatric oncology, interprofessional collaboration occurs under high emotional and organizational demands. Low PS may increase stress, burnout, and adverse events.

The Brier score does not evaluate the clinical utility of diagnostic tests or prediction models

open access: yesDiagnostic and Prognostic Research, 2017
Background A variety of statistics have been proposed as tools to help investigators assess the value of diagnostic tests or prediction models. The Brier score has been recommended on the grounds that it is a proper scoring rule that is affected by both ...
