The Prediction Model for Bankruptcy Risk by Bayesian Method
The importance of predicting bankruptcy risk of firms is increasing because of later financial crisis. Despite practical researchers trying to present models for predicting this risk, it seems that an optimum and acceptable model that is reliable for financial statement users and auditors in order to increase their ability in decision making and professional judgment has not been presented yet....
متن کاملBayesian nonlinear regression for large p small n problems
Statistical modelling and inference problems with sample sizes substantially smaller than the number of available covariates are challenging. This is known as large p small n problem. We develop nonlinear regression models in this setup for accurate prediction. In this paper, we introduce a full Bayesian support vector regression model with Vapnik’s 2-insensitive loss function, based on reprodu...
متن کاملIdentifying rare variants using a Bayesian regression approach
Recent advances in next-generation sequencing technologies have made it possible to generate large amounts of sequence data with rare variants in a cost-effective way. Statistical methods that test variants individually are underpowered to detect rare variants, so it is desirable to perform association analysis of rare variants by combining the information from all variants. In this study, we u...
متن کاملassessing the reliability of the borderline regression method as a standard setting procedure for objective structured clinical examination
background: one of the methods used for standard setting is the borderline regression method (brm). this study aims to assess the reliability of brm when the pass-fail standard in an objective structured clinical examination (osce) was calculated by averaging the brm standards obtained for each station separately. materials and methods: in nine stations of the osce with direct observation the e...
متن کاملWho will pass the dental OSCE? Comparison of the Angoff and the borderline regression standard setting methods.
AIM Aim of this study is to elucidate which standard setting method is optimal to prevent incompetent students to pass and competent students to fail a dental Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). MATERIAL AND METHODS An OSCE with 14 test stations was used to assess the performance of 119 third year dental students in a training group practice. To establish the pass/fail standard ...
