Digital quantitative tissue image analysis of hypoxia in resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
BackgroundTumor hypoxia is theorized to contribute to the aggressive biology of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). We previously reported that hypoxia correlated with rapid tumor growth and metastasis in patient-derived xenografts.

Axiomatic characterization of committee scoring rules [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Economic Theory, 2019
Committee scoring rules form a rich class of aggregators of voters' preferences for the purpose of selecting subsets of objects with desired properties, e.g., a shortlist of candidates for an interview, a representative collective body such as a parliament, or a set of locations for a set of public facilities.

Rank Aggregation Using Scoring Rules

open access: yesProceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2023
To aggregate rankings into a social ranking, one can use scoring systems such as Plurality, Veto, and Borda. We distinguish three types of methods: ranking by score, ranking by repeatedly choosing a winner that we delete and rank at the top, and ranking by repeatedly choosing a loser that we delete and rank at the bottom. The latter method captures the

Bootstrap adjustments of signed scoring rule root statistics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Scoring rules give rise to methods for statistical inference and are useful tools to achieve robustness or reduce computations. Scoring rule inference is generally performed through first-order approximations to the distribution of the scoring rule ...

A Truthful Two-Stage Mechanism for Eliciting Probabilistic Estimates with Unknown Costs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This paper reports on the design of a novel two-stage mechanism, based on strictly proper scoring rules, that motivates selfish rational agents to make a costly probabilistic estimate or forecast of a specified precision and report it truthfully to a ...

Cycles in Team Tennis and Other Paired-Element Contests

open access: yesGames, 2017
Team Tennis competitions produce aggregate scores for teams, and thus team rankings, based on head-to-head matchups of individual team members. Similar scoring rules can be used to rank any two groups that must be compared on the basis of paired elements.

The Query Complexity of Scoring Rules

open access: yesACM Transactions on Economics and Computation, 2014
Proper scoring rules are crucial tools to elicit truthful information from experts. A scoring rule maps X, an expert-provided distribution over the set of all possible states of the world, and ω , a realized state of the world, to a real number representing the expert’s reward for his provided information.

Electronic Scoring Scheme Based on Real Paillier Encryption Algorithms

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Paillier algorithm has higher time efficiency than other homomorphic encryption algorithms due to only one power operation is required, but its encryption range is limited to integer, which cannot meet the need of electronic scoring system to encrypt ...

A Framework for the Cross‐Validation of Categorical Geostatistical Simulations

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2020
The mapping of subsurface parameters and the quantification of spatial uncertainty requires selecting adequate models and their parameters. Cross‐validation techniques have been widely used for geostatistical model selection for continuous variables, but

When Is a Test Score Fair for the Individual Who Is Being Tested? Effects of Different Scoring Procedures across Multiple Attempts When Testing a Motor Skill Task

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2017
Tests or test batteries used for assessing motor skills, either in research studies or in clinical settings, apply a variety of procedures for scoring performances, including everything from one to ten attempts, of which the best is scored or an average ...
