Seizure forecasting with epilepsy cycles: On the causality of forecasting pipelines
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Seizure risk is modulated by multiscale brain rhythms. Previous studies using cycles in electroencephalography, heart rate, and wearable data suggest the possibility of forecasting seizures days in advance. However, they commonly rely on methods requiring (days of) information from time points beyond the moment of forecast (noncausal

Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit

Covariance Structure Modeling of Engineering Demand Parameters in Cloud‐Based Seismic Analysis
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Probabilistic seismic demand modeling aims to estimate structural demand as a function of ground motion intensity—a critical stage in seismic risk assessment. Although many models exist to describe the structural demand, few consider the covariance among engineering demand parameters, potentially overlooking a key factor in improving the ...

Multiple Approaches to Absenteeism Analysis [PDF]
, 1996 Absenteeism research has often been criticized for using inappropriate analysis. Characteristics of absence data, notably that it is usually truncated and skewed, violate assumptions of OLS regression; however, OLS and correlation analysis remain the ...

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Maladaptive exercise is a common symptom of eating disorders (EDs). While several measures exist to assess current maladaptive exercise, there are no validated self‐report tools to assess maladaptive exercise history—an important symptom domain among individuals with lifetime EDs.

Local Polynomial Regression and Filtering for a Versatile Mesh‐Free PDE Solver
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.A high‐order, mesh‐free finite difference method for solving differential equations is presented. Both derivative approximation and scheme stabilisation is carried out by parametric or non‐parametric local polynomial regression, making the resulting numerical method accurate, simple and versatile. Numerous numerical benchmark tests are investigated for

Forecasting Count Data With Varying Dispersion: A Latent‐Variable Approach
Journal of Forecasting, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Count data, such as product sales and disease case counts, are common in business forecasting and many areas of science. Although the Poisson distribution is the best known model for such data, its use is severely limited by its assumption that the dispersion is a fixed function of the mean, which rarely holds in real‐world scenarios.

On a method for mending time to failure distributions [PDF]
Many software reliability growth models assume that the time to next failure may be infinite; i.e., there is a chance that no failure will occur at all. For most software products this is too good to be true even after the testing phase.

Health Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The fiscal sustainability of healthcare systems is increasingly strained by aging populations with two competing hypotheses dominating the literature. The Red Herring Hypothesis suggests that healthcare expenditures are driven more by proximity to death than by chronological age, while the Steepening Hypothesis examines whether expenditures ...
