Robust Demographic Inference from Genomic and SNP Data

Matthieu Foll

We introduce a flexible and robust simulation-based framework to infer demographic parameters from the site frequency spectrum (SFS) computed on large genomic datasets. We show that our composite-likelihood approach allows one to study evolutionary models ...

Coverage Estimation in Floorplan Visual Sensor Networks

Mohammad Hamed Izadi, Ahmad Movahedian Attar

The issue of Coverage in visual sensor networks (VSNs) has attracted considerable attention due to sensors unique directional sensing characteristic. It answers the question that how well the target field is monitored by a network of sensors with video/ima ...

Estimating uncertainty of alcohol-attributable fractions for infectious and chronic diseases

Gerrit Gmel

Background: Alcohol is a major risk factor for burden of disease and injuries globally. This paper presents a systematic method to compute the 95% confidence intervals of alcohol-attributable fractions (AAFs) with exposure and risk relations stemming from ...

A Parameter Estimation Method for Fuel Cell Diagnostics

Jan Van Herle, Stefan Diethelm, Arata Nakajo, Leonidas Tsikonis

Researchers and developers typically use I-V curves (current vs. potential) as a means to demonstrate good data fitting of a model under experimental validation. Despite the popularity of this method, assessment of the results can be intuitive rather than ...

Impact of Excitation Frequency on Short-Term Recording Synchronisation and Confidence Estimation

Danil Korchagin

In this paper, we present the results of a study on excitation frequency impact on short-term recording synchronisation and confidence estimation for multisource audiovisual data, recorded by different personal capturing devices during social events. The c ...

Variance Stabilizing the Difference of Two Binomial Proportions

Stephan Morgenthaler, Robert Staudte

The article studies estimation of Delta = p(1) - p(2), the difference of two proportions p(1) and p(2), based on two independent Binomial experiments of size n(1) and n(2). The usual estimator, the difference between the two sample proportions, is variance ...

Influence of brain tissue segmentation on disease classifier accuracy

Ahmed Abdulkadir, Daniel Kostro

In this work we evaluate the impact of automated preprocessing of MR brain images on the prediction performance of a SVM AD classifier.Using a reference data set of 82 healthy controls and 82 individuals affected by AD we estimate the expected prediction a ...

The radial plot in meta-analysis: approximations and applications

Fixed effects meta-analysis can be thought of as least squares analysis of the radial plot, the plot of standardized treatment effect against precision (reciprocal of the standard deviation) for the studies in a systematic review. For example, the least sq ...

Parameterization of the LHCb Magnetic Field Map

Anne Keune

A parameterization of the LHCb magnetic field is presented. It is derived from an analysis data from a high-precision survey in and around the 4 Tm dipole magnet. By optimally using both data measurements and simulation values, a precision of less than 10( ...
