Weighted averaging in spectroscopic studies improves statistical power
PURPOSE In vivo MRS is often characterized by a spectral signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) that varies highly between experiments. A common design for spectroscopic studies is to compare the ratio of two spectral peak amplitudes between groups, e.g. individual PCr/γ-ATP ratios in 31 P-MRS. The uncertainty on this ratio is often neglected. We wished to explore this assumption. THEORY The canonical t...
متن کاملConstraints in Weighted Averaging
Weighted averaging of classifier outputs is used in many MCSs, yet is still not well understood. Several empirical studies have investigated the effect that non-negativity and sum-one constraints have on the error rate of weighted averaging rules, but there is little theory available to understand the results. In this paper we study how constraints on the weights affect the location of the deci...
متن کاملCalculating statistical power in Mendelian randomization studies.
In Mendelian randomization (MR) studies, where genetic variants are used as proxy measures for an exposure trait of interest, obtaining adequate statistical power is frequently a concern due to the small amount of variation in a phenotypic trait that is typically explained by genetic variants. A range of power estimates based on simulations and specific parameters for two-stage least squares (2...
متن کاملStatistical Power in Longitudinal Network Studies
Longitudinal social network studies may easily suffer from a lack of statistical power. This is the case in particular for studies that simultaneously investigate change of network ties and change of nodal attributes. Such selection and influence studies have become increasingly popular due to the introduction of stochastic actor-oriented models (SAOMs). This paper presents a simulation-based p...
متن کاملADAPTIVE ORDERED WEIGHTED AVERAGING FOR ANOMALY DETECTION IN CLUSTER-BASED MOBILE AD HOC NETWORKS
In this paper, an anomaly detection method in cluster-based mobile ad hoc networks with ad hoc on demand distance vector (AODV) routing protocol is proposed. In the method, the required features for describing the normal behavior of AODV are defined via step by step analysis of AODV and independent of any attack. In order to learn the normal behavior of AODV, a fuzzy averaging method is used fo...
