Selecting the sample.
Introduction Sample selection is a key factor in research design and can determine whether research questions will be answered before the study has even begun. Good sample selection and appropriate sample size strengthen a study, protecting valuable time, money and resources. In the context of healthcare research, poor design could lead to use of harmful practices, delays in new treatment and l...
متن کاملSelecting queries from sample to crawl deep web data sources
This paper studies the problem of selecting queries to efficiently crawl a deep web data source using a set of sample documents. Crawling deep web is the process of collecting data from search interfaces by issuing queries. One of the major challenges in crawling deep web is the selection of the queries so that most of the data can be retrieved at a low cost. We propose to learn a set of querie...
متن کاملSelecting Informative Universum Sample for Semi-Supervised Learning
The Universum sample, which is defined as the sample that doesn’t belong to any of the classes the learning task concerns, has been proved to be helpful in both supervised and semi-supervised settings. The former works treat the Universum samples equally. Our research found that not all the Universum samples are helpful, and we propose a method to pick the informative ones, i.e., inbetween Univ...
متن کاملSelecting Genes with Dissimilar Discrimination Strength for Sample Class Prediction
One of the main applications of microarray technology is to determine the gene expression profiles of diseases and disease treatments. This is typically done by selecting a small number of genes from amongst thousands to tens of thousands, whose expression values are collectively used as classification profiles. This gene selection process is notoriously challenging because microarray data norm...
متن کاملSelecting a sample size for studies with repeated measures
Many researchers favor repeated measures designs because they allow the detection of within-person change over time and typically have higher statistical power than cross-sectional designs. However, the plethora of inputs needed for repeated measures designs can make sample size selection, a critical step in designing a successful study, difficult. Using a dental pain study as a driving example...
