Assessing Sensitivity to Multiple Factors in Calculating Attributable Risks
In many calculations of attributable risk (AR), there are a number of parameters (excess risks, exposure rates, and so on) that are not known accurately, and one should take into account the variability in these parameters in determining a range of \plausible values" of the attributable number (AN) of incidences due to the exposure. This is often done through simple tabulation of extreme combin...
متن کاملA simple method for calculating risks before DNA analysis.
Calculation of carrier risk of an X linked disease may be performed on a small computer after DNA analysis, but a method for rapid hand estimation of the risk is still useful for a quick check of the results and weighing the relative importance of each element of information, such as the determination of a haplotype. Each risk estimation is a function of a prior risk and the product of likeliho...
متن کاملCalculating Accumulations 1 Calculating Accumulations
The accumulation strategy consists of generalizing a function over an algebraic data structure by inclusion of an extra parameter, an accumulating parameter, for reusing and propagating intermediate results. It is one of the standard optimization techniques taught to functional programmers 13). However , there remain two major diculties in this accumulation strategy. One is to determine where a...
متن کاملCalculating Criticalities
We present a novel method for building Abstrips style abstraction hierarchies in planning. The aim of this method is to minimize search by limiting backtracking both between abstraction levels and within an abstraction level. Previous approaches for building Abstrips style abstractions have determined the crit-icality of operator preconditions by reasoning about plans directly. Here, we adopt a...
متن کاملCalculating life?
Systems biology is an excellent research topic for social scientists because systems biologists themselves are fascinated by the social organization of their field. Moreover, as systems biology is an emerging research area, studying it from a sociological perspective allows social scientists to observe how scientists develop new fields of inquiry and practice, and challenge existing institution...
