Essentially all models are wrong, but some are useful.
Recent advances in high-throughput technologies, such as genome-wide SNP analysis and microarray gene expression profiling, have led to a multitude of ranked lists, where the features (SNPs, genes) are sorted based on their individual correlation with a phenotype. Multiple reviews have shown that most such rankings vary considerably across different studies, even in the case of subsampling from...
متن کاملAll models are wrong.
As the field of phylogeography has continued to move in the model-based direction, researchers continue struggling to construct useful models for inference. These models must be both simple enough to be tractable yet contain enough of the complexity of the natural world to make meaningful inference. Beyond constructing such models for inference, researchers explore model space and test competin...
متن کاملAll models are wrong.
A NESTHESIOLOGISTS are master pharmacologists. In the course of our training, we learn that certain types of drugs, the hypnotics, suppress consciousness. We learn that other types of drugs, the analgesics, suppress nociception. Through training and experience, we learn to induce oblivion with judicious combinations of hypnotics and analgesics. We learn to leverage the synergistic interaction o...
متن کاملLearning object repositories are useful, but are they usable?
Learning Object Repositories seems to be the solution to facilitate the sharing and reusing of learning material. As useful as they may appear, Learning Object Repositories are not in widespread use among faculty around the world. There are indications that the amount of work and time required to use the Repositories is the main reason for the reluctance of teachers. This work analyzes the tool...
متن کاملScaling clearance in paediatric pharmacokinetics: All models are wrong, which are useful?
LINKED ARTICLES This article is commented on in the editorial by Holford NHG and Anderson BJ. Why standards are useful for predicting doses. Br J Clin Pharmacol 2017; 83: 685-7. doi: 10.1111/bcp.13230 AIM: When different models for weight and age are used in paediatric pharmacokinetic studies it is difficult to compare parameters between studies or perform model-based meta-analyses. This study ...
