Intoxicated method, thinking in difference: a response to Mel Chen.
This issue of Medical Humanities signals a turning point for an area of scholarship that is made up of several ‘contested and fragmented fields’ (p. 17) and has been criticised for lacking a central theory, method or politics. At first glance, there may seem to be little in common between recognisable ‘medical humanities’ scholarship—typically engaging with illness experiences, patient–clinicia...
متن کاملOn Using the First Difference in Stein - Chen Method
This paper investigates an alternative way of using the Stein-Chen method in Poisson approximations. There are three principal bounds stated in terms of reduced Palm probabilities for general point processes. The rst two are for the accuracy of Poisson random variable approximation to the distribution of the number of points in a point process with respect to the total variation metric and Wass...
متن کاملA weighted metric method to optimize multi-response robust problems
In a robust parameter design (RPD) problem, the experimenter is interested to determine the values of con-trol factors such that responses will be robust or insensitive to variability of the noise factors. Response sur-face methodology (RSM) is one of the effective methods that can be employed for this purpose. Since quality of products or processes is usually evaluated through several quality ...
متن کاملa paradigm shift away from method-wise teaching to strategy-wise teaching: an investigation of reconstructive strategy versus communicative strategy
چکیده: هدف اصلی این مطالعه ی توصیفی تحقیقی در حقیقت تلاشی پساروش-گرا به منظور رسیدن به نتیجه ای منطقی در انتخاب مناسبترین راهکار آموزشی بر گرفته از چارچوب راهبردی مطرح شده توسط والدمر مارتن بوده که به بهترین شکل سازگار و مناسب با سامانه ی آموزشی ایران باشد. از این رو، دو راهکار آموزشی، راهکار ارتباطی و راهکار بازساختی، برای تحقیق و بررسی انتخاب شدند. صریحاً اینکه، در راستای هدف اصلی این پژوهش، ر...
15 صفحه اولPoisson Approximation and the Chen-Stein Method
The Chen-Stein method of Poisson approximation is a powerful tool for computing an error bound when approximating probabilities using the Poisson distribution. In many cases, this bound may be given in terms of first and second moments alone. We present a background of the method and state some fundamental Poisson approximation theorems. The body of this paper is an illustration, through varied...
