Validity of MAST-CLA for diagnosis of arthropod allergy using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Korean Journal of Parasitology, 2007
Many allergists are currently focusing on the development of new diagnostic tools, and are attempting to improve both the sensitivity and specificity. A multiple allergen simultaneous test-chemiluminescent assay (MASTCLA) is one of the most popular diagnostic tools used in the Republic of Korea.

Comparative evaluation of three automated urine sediment analyzers excluding cutoff-related trade-offs

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Performance comparison of automated urine sediment analyzers is difficult due to cutoff-related trade-offs. In this study, we evaluated and compared UF-5000, UAS800, and Cobas u701 using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis.

ROC and the bounds on tail probabilities via theorems of Dubins and F. Riesz

open access: yes, 2009
For independent $X$ and $Y$ in the inequality $P(X\leq Y+\mu)$, we give sharp lower bounds for unimodal distributions having finite variance, and sharp upper bounds assuming symmetric densities bounded by a finite constant.

Simulation of land use changes using cellular automata and artificial neural network [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper presents a method integrating artificial neural network (ANN) in cellular automata (CA) to simulate land use changes in Luxembourg and the areas adjacent to its borders. The ANN is used as a base of CA model transition rule.
