Numerical Approaches for Developing Predictive Models
We present an approach to uncertainty propagation in dynamic systems, exploiting information provided by related experimental results along with their models. The approach relies on a solution mapping technique to approximate mathematical models by polynomial surrogate models. We use these surrogate models to formulate prediction bounds in terms of polynomial optimizations. Recent results on po...
متن کاملHealth literacy in Europe: the development and validation of health literacy prediction models.
BACKGROUND Health literacy is an important determinant of health, but national health literacy levels are known for only some European countries. This study aims to examine to what extent national health literacy levels can be estimated based on publicly available census data. METHOD Multivariate models were used to predict two types of health literacy on population level. Predictors were sel...
متن کاملUncovering health literacy: Developing a remotely administered questionnaire for determining health literacy levels in health disparate populations.
INTRODUCTION Low health literacy contributes to health disparities. We sought to develop and evaluate a remotely administered tool to measure health literacy in health disparate populations. The basic research design involved asking the remotely administered questions in conjunction with an existing and valid measure of health literacy, the S-TOFHLA, to a non-representative convenience sample o...
متن کاملDeveloping predictive models of excellent and devastating outcome after stroke.
BACKGROUND models to predict functional status post-stroke have utility in balancing groups in randomised trials, for outcome comparison between stroke centres and may assist in outcome prediction. This study aimed to develop models of both excellent [modified Rankin score (mRS) 0-1] and devastating outcomes (mRS of 5-6). METHODS patients admitted with ischaemic or haemorrhagic stroke in 2001...
متن کاملDeveloping health information literacy: a needs analysis from the perspective of preprofessional health students.
OBJECTIVE The research identified the skills, if any, that health preprofessional students wished to develop after receiving feedback on skill gaps as well as any strategies they intended to use to address these gaps. METHODS A qualitative approach was used to elicit students' reflections on building health information literacy skills. First, the students took the Research Readiness Self-Asse...
