Designing image segmentation studies: Statistical power, sample size and reference standard quality
Segmentation algorithms are typically evaluated by comparison to an accepted reference standard. The cost of generating accurate reference standards for medical image segmentation can be substantial. Since the study cost and the likelihood of detecting a clinically meaningful difference in accuracy both depend on the size and on the quality of the study reference standard, balancing these trade...
متن کاملEconomic-statistical Design of NP Control Chart with Variable Sample Size and Sampling Interval
The control charts are graphical tools and proven techniques to improve the performance of a process. Usually, the processes are not naturally controlled, so the use of control charts will help to reduce the variability and increase the stability of the process. In the traditional approach, control charts with fix sample size and constant sampling intervals were used to identify the changes in ...
متن کاملSample size estimation and statistical power analyses
The concept of sample size and statistical power estimation is now something that Optometrists that want to perform research, whether it be in practice or in an academic institution, cannot simply hide away from. Ethics committees, journal editors and grant awarding bodies are now increasingly requesting that all research be backed up with sample size and statistical power estimation in order t...
متن کاملStatistical and Computational Tradeoff of Regularized Dantzig-type Estimators
Nesterov’s smoothing technique has been widely applied to solve nonsmooth optimization problems involving high dimensional statistical models. However, existing theory focuses more on its computational properties rather than statistical properties. This paper bridges this gap by studying a family of regularized Dantzig-type estimators. For these estimators, we show that the smoothing technique ...
متن کاملImproved bounds on sample size for implicit matrix trace estimators
This article is concerned with Monte-Carlo methods for the estimation of the trace of an implicitly given matrix A whose information is only available through matrix-vector products. Such a method approximates the trace by an average of N expressions of the form w(Aw), with random vectors w drawn from an appropriate distribution. We prove, discuss and experiment with bounds on the number of rea...
