Estimating Readability with the Strathclyde Readability Measure
Despite their significant limitations, readability measures that are easy to apply have definite appeal. With this in mind, we have been exploring the prospects for more insightful measures that are computer-based and, thereby, still easily applied. The orthodox reliance on intrinsic syntactic features is an inherent limitation of most readability measures, since they have no reference to the l...
متن کاملAn objective measure for estimating MOS of synthesized speech
This paper proposes an average concatenative cost function as the objective measure for naturalness of synthesized speech. All its seven component-costs can be derived directly from the input text and the scripts of speech database. A formal Mean Opinion Score (MOS) experiment shows that the average concatenative cost and its seven components are all highly correlated with MOS obtained subjecti...
متن کاملEstimating copula measure using ranks and subsampling: a simulation study
We describe here a new method to estimate copula measure. From N observations of two variables X and Y , we draw a huge number m of subsamples (size n < N), and we compute the joint ranks in these subsamples. Then, for p, q ≤ n, the density in (p/n, q/n) is estimated as 1 mn Pm s=1 Pn i=1 {Ri,s=p,Si,s=q} where Ri,s (respectively Si,s) is the rank in X (resp. Y ) of the i observation of the s sa...
متن کاملA tensor-based measure for estimating blood damage.
Implantable ventricular assist devices give hope of a permanent clinical solution to heart failure. These devices, both pulsatile- and continuous-flow, are presently used as medium-term bridge to heart transplant or recovery. While long-term use of continuous-flow axial and centrifugal pumps is being explored, the excessive level of blood damage in these devices has emerged as a design challeng...
متن کاملEstimating Measurement Error of the Patient Activation Measure for Respondents with Partially Missing Data.
The patient activation measure (PAM) is an increasingly popular instrument used as the basis for interventions to improve patient engagement and as an outcome measure to assess intervention effect. However, a PAM score may be calculated when there are missing responses, which could lead to substantial measurement error. In this paper, measurement error is systematically estimated across the ful...
