Failure Mode and Effects Analysis Using Data Envelopment Analysis

Validity, reliability, and defensibility of assessments in veterinary education.

In this article, we provide an introduction to and overview of issues of validity, reliability, and defensibility related to measurement of student performance in veterinary medical education. Validity has to do with the extent to which the instrument measures whatever it is supposed to measure, reliability has to do with the consistency of measurement, and defensibility deals with the appropri...

Evidential Notions of Defensibility and Admissibility with Property Preservation

For security-emphasizing fields that deal with evidential data acquisition, processing, communication, storage and presentation, for instance network forensics, border security and enforcement surveillance, ultimately the outcome is not the technical output but rather physical prosecutions in court (e.g. of hackers, terrorists, law offenders) or counter-attack measures against the malicious adv...

Gap analysis and syntax

A statistical procedure has been tried as a method of investigating the structure of language with the aid of data processing machines. The frequency of gaps of various lengths between occurrences of two specified words is counted. The results are compared with what would be expected if the occurrences of the two words were statistically independent. Deviations from the expected number give clu...
