A history-based method to estimate animal preference
Giving animals their preferred items (e.g., environmental enrichment) has been suggested as a method to improve animal welfare, thus raising the question of how to determine what animals want. Most studies have employed choice tests for detecting animal preferences. However, whether choice tests represent animal preferences remains a matter of controversy. Here, we present a history-based metho...
متن کاملA GLM-Based Method to Estimate a Copula\'s Parameter(s)
Abstract. This study introduces a new approach to problem of estimating parameter(s) of a given copula. More precisely, using the concept of the generalized linear models (GLM) accompanied with least square method, we introduce an estimation method, say GLM-method. A simulation study has been conducted to provide a omparison among the inversion of Kendal’s tau, the inversion of Spearman’s rho,...
متن کاملA consistency-based procedure to estimate missing pairwise preference values
In this paper, we present a procedure to estimate missing preference values when dealing with pairwise comparison and heterogeneous information. The procedure attempts to estimate the missing information in an expert's incomplete fuzzy preference relation using only the preference values provided by that particular expert. Our procedure to estimate missing values can be applied to incomplete fu...
متن کاملA TLD based method to estimate bowtie filter shape in PET/CT
Background: In CT systems, the machine utilizes a bowtie filter to shape the X-ray beam and remove lower energy photons. The shape of this bowtie filter is complicated and its geometry is often not available in detail. These renders the CT dose index (CTDI) to have different values in measurement versus Monte Carlo simulation studies and other analytical calculations especially in dosimetry of ...
متن کاملA Mutual Information Based Ensemble Method to Estimate Bayes Error
Determining the performance bounds possible with a particular clas-siier or data set is often of great importance in pattern recognition applications. A previously introduced method for Bayes error estimation based on combining multiple classiiers outperforms more traditional estimates of this error in many instances. The accuracy of this estimate, however, relies on the correlation among the c...
