Nonparametric Subgroup Identification by PRIM and CART: A Simulation and Application Study
Two nonparametric methods for the identification of subgroups with outstanding outcome values are described and compared to each other in a simulation study and an application to clinical data. The Patient Rule Induction Method (PRIM) searches for box-shaped areas in the given data which exceed a minimal size and average outcome. This is achieved via a combination of iterative peeling and pasti...
متن کاملWhen Power Adaptation is Useless or Harmful
We consider the design of optimal strategies for joint power adaptation, rate adaptation and scheduling in a multi-hop wireless network. Most existing strategies for ad-hoc networks control either power and scheduling, or rates and scheduling, but not the three together as we do. We assume the underlying physical layer allows finegrained rate adaptation (like in 802.11a/g, HDR/CDMA, UWB). Our g...
متن کاملSubgroup Discovery
The discovery of (interesting) subgroups has a high practical relevance in all domains of science or business. For example, consider statements such as: ”the unemployment rate is above average for young men with a low educational level”, ”smokers with a positive family history are at a significantly higher risk for coronary heart disease”, or ”single males living in rural areas do rarely take o...

متن کاملPatience Versus Decisiveness in Decision-Making
When rationality is bounded, a variety of factors may influence how far a choice is from optimal. We examine the willingness to search among alternatives. We find fixed individual differences in this temperament measure. People may be usefully typed according to how they obtain improved choices. More patient subjects obtain improvement by effectively using decision resources, performing better ...
