Niche Modeling of Dengue Fever Using Remotely Sensed Environmental Factors and Boosted Regression Trees
Dengue fever (DF), a vector-borne flavivirus, is endemic to the tropical countries of the world with nearly 400 million people becoming infected each year and roughly one-third of the world’s population living in areas of risk. The main vector for DF is the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which is also the same vector of yellow fever, chikungunya, and Zika viruses. To gain an understanding of the spati...
متن کاملBoosted regression trees with errors in variables.
In this article, we consider nonparametric regression when covariates are measured with error. Estimation is performed using boosted regression trees, with the sum of the trees forming the estimate of the conditional expectation of the response. Both binary and continuous response regression are investigated. An approach to fitting regression trees when covariates are measured with error is des...
متن کاملEnergy Measurement in EXO-200 using Boosted Regression Trees
The EXO-200 experiment uses a Liquid Xenon (LXe) time projection chamber (TPC) to search for neutrinoless-double beta decay(0νββ), an extremely rare hypothetical decay that would indicate the Majorana nature of neutrinos.[1, 2, 3] The EXO-200 experiment has been taking data for over 2 years and has published one of the most sensitive limits on 0νββ half-life. Events deposit energy in the LXe th...
متن کاملFactors associated with length of stay in hospital among the elderly patients using count regression models
Background: Aging is a major challenge not only for high-income countries but also for middle- and low-income countries. The length of stay (LOS) in hospitals is one of the major concerns of elderly patients, which should be taken into consideration. We aimed to investigate the factors affecting LOS of elderly patients admitted to a referral hospital of northeast of Iran. Methods: A rel...
