Optimal experimental designs for fMRI via circulant biased weighing designs

open access: yes, 2015
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technology is popularly used in many fields for studying how the brain reacts to mental stimuli. The identification of optimal fMRI experimental designs is crucial for rendering precise statistical inference ...

Some Aspects of Weighing Designs

open access: yesThe Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1960
In a previous paper [8] the author proved that the $P_N$ and $S_N$ matrices are the most efficient weighing designs obtainable under Kishen's definition of efficiency [5], when $N$ is odd and $N \equiv 2 (\operatorname{mod} 4)$ respectively, subject to the conditions (i) The variances of the estimated weights are equal; (ii) The estimated weights are ...

An note on the maximization of matrix valued Hankel determinants with application [PDF]

open access: yes
In this note we consider the problem of maximizing the determinant of moment matrices of matrix measures. The maximizing matrix measure can be characterized explicitly by having equal (matrix valued) weights at the zeros of classical (one dimensional ...

Bias in research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The aim of this article is to outline types of ‘bias’ across research designs, and consider strategies to minimise bias. Evidence-based nursing, defined as the “process by which evidence, nursing theory, and clinical expertise are critically evaluated ...
