Evaluating Popular Statistical Properties of Incomplete Block Designs: A MATLAB Program Approach [PDF]
Evaluating the statistical properties of a semi-Latin square, and in general, an incomplete block design, is vital in determining the usefulness of the design for experimentation.

A call to action to address critical flaws and bias in laboratory animal experiments and preclinical research [PDF]
During the design of hypothesis-driven, comparative laboratory animal experiments, investigators must control for cage effects, ensure full blinding and full randomization while adhering to established experimental designs, notably variations of the ...

Analysis of Covariance of Reinforced Balanced Incomplete Block Designs With a Single Explanatory Variable [PDF]
Reinforced balanced incomplete block designs (BIBDs) are very useful in statistical planning of experiments as they can be constructed for any number of treatments for given numbers of replications.

A Comparative Analysis of Residual Block Alternatives for End-to-End Audio Classification
Residual learning is known for being a learning framework that facilitates the training of very deep neural networks. Residual blocks or units are made up of a set of stacked layers, where the inputs are added back to their outputs with the aim of ...
