Calculating Stage Duration Statistics in Multistage Diseases
Many human diseases are characterized by multiple stages of progression. While the typical sequence of disease progression can be identified, there may be large individual variations among patients. Identifying mean stage durations and their variations is critical for statistical hypothesis testing needed to determine if treatment is having a significant effect on the progression, or if a new t...
متن کاملMulticast in extra-stage multistage interconnection networks
This paper studies the multicast problem in the multistage interconnection network (MIN) topology. A regular MIN is a unique path network and can provide only a single path choice in routing or multicas-ting. However, if the MIN is added with a few extra stages, it can ooer greater routing exibilities. Design implications of extra-stage MINs are discussed in this paper. An upper bound on the nu...
متن کاملCalculating articulatory syllable duration and prosodic boundaries
Articulatory duration of vowels is often measured as the duration from jaw closure maximum to jaw closure maximum, flanking the production of the syllable nucleus. However, this method may not necessarily represent articulatory syllable duration, since the actual onset/offset of the syllable depends on the specific articulator (lip, tongue) that implements the articulation of the syllable onset...
متن کاملStochastic variational inequalities: single-stage to multistage
Variational inequality modeling, analysis and computations are important for many applications, but most of the subject has been developed in a deterministic setting with no uncertainty in a problem’s data. In recent years research has proceeded on a track to incorporate stochasticity in one way or another. However, the main focus has been on a rather limited idea of what a stochastic variation...
متن کاملStage-dependent hierarchy of criteria in multiobjective multistage decision processes
This paper will consider a multiobjective, multistage discrete dynamic process with a changeable, state-dependent hierarchy of stage criteria determined by the decision maker. The goal of this paper is to answer the question of how to control a multistage process while taking into account both the tendency to achieve multiobjective optimization of the entire process and the time-varying hierarc...
