Increasingly more research areas rely on machine learning methods to accelerate discovery while saving resources. Machine learning models, however, usually require large datasets of experimental or computational results, which in certain…
Data preprocessing is often paid little attention in machine learning, despite its potentially significant impact on model performance. While automated machine learning pipelines are starting to recognize and integrate data preprocessing…
When performing an aggregate data meta-analysis of a continuous outcome, researchers often come across primary studies that report the sample median of the outcome. However, standard meta-analytic methods typically cannot be directly…
In medicine, reference curves serve as an important tool for everyday clinical practice. Pediatricians assess the growth process of children with the help of percentile curves serving as norm references. The mathematical methods for the…
The aim of survival analysis in healthcare is to estimate the probability of occurrence of an event, such as a patient's death in an intensive care unit (ICU). Recent developments in deep neural networks (DNNs) for survival analysis show…
The establishment of bioRxiv facilitated the rapid adoption of preprints in the life sciences, accelerating the dissemination of new research findings. However, the sheer volume of preprints published daily can be overwhelming, making it…
Survival analysis is one of the most important fields of statistics in medicine and the biological sciences. In addition, the computational advances in the last decades have favoured the use of Bayesian methods in this context, providing a…
The R package merlin performs flexible joint modelling of hierarchical multi-outcome data. Increasingly, multiple longitudinal biomarker measurements, possibly censored time-to-event outcomes and baseline characteristics are available.…
Composite endpoints, which combine two or more distinct outcomes, are frequently used in clinical trials to enhance the event rate and improve the statistical power. In the recent literature, the while-alive cumulative frequency measure…
In recent years there has been widespread concern in the scientific community over a reproducibility crisis. Among the major causes that have been identified is statistical: In many scientific research the statistical analysis (including…
In this work we introduce repro_eval - a tool for reactive reproducibility studies of system-oriented information retrieval (IR) experiments. The corresponding Python package provides IR researchers with measures for different levels of…
Mixture cure models have been widely used to analyze survival data with a cure fraction. They assume that a subgroup of the individuals under study will never experience the event (cured subjects). So, the goal is twofold: to study both the…
Remaining Useful Life (RUL) of an equipment or one of its components is defined as the time left until the equipment or component reaches its end of useful life. Accurate RUL estimation is exceptionally beneficial to Predictive Maintenance,…
Human perceptual studies are the gold standard for the evaluation of many research tasks in machine learning, linguistics, and psychology. However, these studies require significant time and cost to perform. As a result, many researchers…
Survival analysis is a widely-used technique for analyzing time-to-event data in the presence of censoring. In recent years, numerous survival analysis methods have emerged which scale to large datasets and relax traditional assumptions…
This article describes lcpy, an open-source python package that allows for advanced parametric Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Life Cycle Costing (LCC) analysis. The package is designed to allow the user to model a process with a flexible,…
When modelling competing risks survival data, several techniques have been proposed in both the statistical and machine learning literature. State-of-the-art methods have extended classical approaches with more flexible assumptions that can…
The mean past lifetime (MPL) is an important tool in reliability and survival analysis for measuring the average time elapsed since the occurrence of an event, under the condition that the event has occurred before a specific time $t>0$.…
Background: The use of mixed effect models with a specific functional form such as the Sigmoidal Mixed Model and the Piecewise Mixed Model (or Changepoint Mixed Model) with abrupt or smooth random change allows the interpretation of the…
Reproducibility is an important requirement in evolutionary computation, where results largely depend on computational experiments. In practice, reproducibility relies on how algorithms, experimental protocols, and artifacts are documented…
