The abanico plot: Visualising chronometric data with individual standard errors

Visualising Errors in Animal Pedigree Genotype Data

Genetic analysis of a breeding animal population involves determining the inheritance pattern of genotypes for multiple genetic markers across the individuals in the population pedigree structure. However, experimental pedigree genotype data invariably contains errors in both the pedigree structure and in the associated individual genotypes, which introduce inconsistencies into the dataset, ren...

Standard errors for regression on relational data with exchangeable errors

Relational arrays represent interactions or associations between pairs of actors, often over time or in varied contexts. We focus on the case where the elements of a relational array are modeled as a linear function of observable covariates. Due to the inherent dependencies among relations involving the same individual, standard regression methods for quantifying uncertainty in the regression c...

The comparison of standard lead with individual mold shielding on patient dose

Background: The Shielding methods in radiotherapy due to delivering an accurate radiation dose to cancer tissues and avoiding unnecessary dose to normal tissues are very important. These methods include Lead standard blocks, individual molding and multi leaf collimator (MLC). The MLC method is not still common in Iran radiotherapy centers. Individual molding is better than the lead block shield...

Absurd Trivial Errors in Scatchard Plot Analysis

Several types of widespread errors in performing Scatchard plot analysis resulting in fatal distortions of calculated affinities are surveyed more or less systematically. It appears that graphical analysis of non-linear Scathard plot “by eye” is almost impossible; and, moreover, results calculated by computer programs for affinity analysis often require additional "interpretation". Some of repo...
