A Critical Discussion on Bath-tub Curve
The typical bathtub curve and its “standard”shape have been widely accepted as an engineering tool in reliability management and training. However, some recent researches reveal that the typical theory of ‘bathtub curve’is not so convincing in some situations. Therefore, a critical discussion is developed to research the bath-tub curve along three significant periods of bath-tub; i.e. infant mo...
متن کاملA regret theory approach to decision curve analysis: A novel method for eliciting decision makers' preferences and decision-making
BACKGROUND Decision curve analysis (DCA) has been proposed as an alternative method for evaluation of diagnostic tests, prediction models, and molecular markers. However, DCA is based on expected utility theory, which has been routinely violated by decision makers. Decision-making is governed by intuition (system 1), and analytical, deliberative process (system 2), thus, rational decision-makin...
متن کاملA Discussion on Elliptic Curve Cryptography and Its Applications
Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) is a kind of public key cryptosystem like RSA. But it differs from RSA in its quicker evolving capacity and by providing attractive and alternative way to researchers of cryptographic algorithm. The security level which is given by RSA can be provided even by smaller keys of ECC (for example, a 160 bit ECC has roughly the same security strength as 1024 bit RSA)...
متن کاملUsing the weighted area under the net benefit curve for decision curve analysis
BACKGROUND Risk prediction models have been proposed for various diseases and are being improved as new predictors are identified. A major challenge is to determine whether the newly discovered predictors improve risk prediction. Decision curve analysis has been proposed as an alternative to the area under the curve and net reclassification index to evaluate the performance of prediction models...
متن کاملDecision curve analysis revisited: overall net benefit, relationships to ROC curve analysis, and application to case-control studies
BACKGROUND Decision curve analysis has been introduced as a method to evaluate prediction models in terms of their clinical consequences if used for a binary classification of subjects into a group who should and into a group who should not be treated. The key concept for this type of evaluation is the "net benefit", a concept borrowed from utility theory. METHODS We recall the foundations of...
