CESER: An R Package to Compute Cluster Estimated Standard Errors

Journal of Open Research Software, 2021
This paper presents an implementation in R of the Cluster Estimated Standard Errors (CESE) proposed by [12]. The method estimates the covariance matrix of the estimated coefficients of linear models in grouped data sets with correlation among ...

Confidence interval methods for antimicrobial resistance surveillance data

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2021
Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the greatest global health challenges today, but burden assessment is hindered by uncertainty of AMR prevalence estimates.

Robust Inferential Techniques Applied to the Analysis of the Tropospheric Ozone Concentration in an Urban Area

Sensors, 2021
This paper analyzes 12 years of tropospheric ozone (O3) concentration measurements using robust techniques. The measurements were taken at an air quality monitoring station called Belisario, which is in Quito, Ecuador; the data collection time period was

Contrasting diversity values: statistical inferences based on overlapping confidence intervals. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Ecologists often contrast diversity (species richness and abundances) using tests for comparing means or indices. However, many popular software applications do not support performing standard inferential statistics for estimates of species richness and ...

Cuffless Blood Pressure Estimation with Confidence Intervals using Hybrid Feature Selection and Decision Based on Gaussian Process

Applied Sciences, 2023
Cuffless blood pressure (BP) monitoring is crucial for patients with cardiovascular disease and hypertension. However, conventional BP monitors provide only single-point estimates without confidence intervals.

Automatic Features Extraction Integrated With Exact Gaussian Process for Respiratory Rate and Uncertainty Estimations

IEEE Access, 2023
Respiratory rate monitoring has become necessary for people with respiratory diseases, especially those living alone. Sudden changes in respiratory rate (RR) in these individuals may indicate a severe illness.

Evaluation of jackknife and bootstrap for defining confidence intervals for pairwise agreement measures.

PLoS ONE, 2011
Several research fields frequently deal with the analysis of diverse classification results of the same entities. This should imply an objective detection of overlaps and divergences between the formed clusters. The congruence between classifications can

Confidence Intervals For An Effect Size When Variances Are Not Equal [PDF]

, 2006
Confidence intervals must be robust in having nominal and actual probability coverage in close agreement. This article examined two ways of computing an effect size in a two-group problem: (a) the classic approach which divides the mean difference by a ...
