Nonlinear Models in Medical Statistics.

ETHICAL ISSUES IN MEDICAL STATISTICS

Medical statistics (biostatistics), as a vital essential part of modem life, does raise some fundamental ethical issues. Surprisingly, this aspect seems to have been totally ignored by books on medical ethics. This paper discusses how the statistical aspects affect the ethics.

Assessment of nonlinear dynamic models by Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistics

Model assessment is a fundamental problem in science and engineering and it addresses the question of the validity of a model in the light of empirical evidence. In this paper, we propose a method for the assessment of dynamic nonlinear models based on empirical and predictive cumulative distributions of data and the Kolmogorov–Smirnov statistics. The technique is based on the generation of dis...

Advances in Medical Statistics

Research in the medical area is rapidly developing and new challenges for statisticians are continuously emerging. Personalized medicine, rare diseases and observational studies are only a few catchphrases that motivate statisticians all over the world to develop new methods and advanced analysis strategies. This special issue focuses on modern statistical methods related to any aspect and appl...
