On adaptive stratification
This paper investigates the use of stratified sampling as a variance reduction technique for approximating integrals over large dimensional spaces. The accuracy of this method critically depends on the choice of the space partition, the strata, which should be ideally fitted to the subsets where the functions to integrate is nearly constant, and on the allocation of the number of samples within...
متن کاملAdaptive index models for marker-based risk stratification.
We use the term "index predictor" to denote a score that consists of K binary rules such as "age > 60" or "blood pressure > 120 mm Hg." The index predictor is the sum of these binary scores, yielding a value from 0 to K. Such indices as often used in clinical studies to stratify population risk: They are usually derived from subject area considerations. In this paper, we propose a fast data-dri...
متن کاملOn stratification in poetry
Texts are composed of many different strata on different levels. A method is proposed to find the number of strata at the word-form level in Slovak poetry and to study the relationship between the parameters of the fitting function.
متن کاملOn Optimum Stratification
In this manuscript, we discuss the problem of determining the optimum stratification of a study (or main) variable based on the auxiliary variable that follows a uniform distribution. If the stratification of survey variable is made using the auxiliary variable it may lead to substantial gains in precision of the estimates. This problem is formulated as a Nonlinear Programming Problem (NLPP), w...
متن کاملOn Chase Termination Beyond Stratification
We study the termination problem of the chase algorithm, a central tool in various database problems such as the constraint implication problem, Conjunctive Query optimization, rewriting queries using views, data exchange, and data integration. The basic idea of the chase is, given a database instance and a set of constraints as input, to fix constraint violations in the database instance. It i...
