Inference and Prediction Diverge in Biomedicine
Patterns, 2020 Summary: In the 20th century, many advances in biological knowledge and evidence-based medicine were supported by p values and accompanying methods. In the early 21st century, ambitions toward precision medicine place a premium on detailed predictions ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Procedure We

NeuralNetTools: Visualization and Analysis Tools for Neural Networks
Journal of Statistical Software, 2018 Supervised neural networks have been applied as a machine learning technique to identify and predict emergent patterns among multiple variables. A common criticism of these methods is the inability to characterize relationships among variables from a ...

The importance of pointer variables in constraint models [PDF]
Proceedings of the 4th annual ACM symposium on User interface software and technology - UIST '91, 1991 Graphical tools are increasingly using constraints to specify the graphical layout and behavior of many parts of an application. However, conventional constraints directly encode the objects they reference, and thus cannot provide support for the dynamic rttntime creation and manipulation of application objects.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.

Variable Importance Without Impossible Data
Annual Review of Statistics and Its ApplicationThe most popular methods for measuring importance of the variables in a black-box prediction algorithm make use of synthetic inputs that combine predictor variables from multiple observations. These inputs can be unlikely, physically impossible, or even logically impossible.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Pre‐dilution online hemodiafiltration (Pre‐HDF) is predominantly used in Japan, whereas post‐dilution online HDF (Post‐HDF) is more common in Europe. An asymmetric cellulose triacetate (ATA) membrane may improve biocompatibility.

Unbiased variable importance for random forests [PDF]
Communications in Statistics - Theory and Methods, 2020 The default variable-importance measure in random Forests, Gini importance, has been shown to suffer from the bias of the underlying Gini-gain splitting criterion. While the alternative permutation importance is generally accepted as a reliable measure of variable importance, it is also computationally demanding and suffers from other shortcomings.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.
