Trajectory-Based Performance Measures for Interrupted-Flow Facilities

Executive Summary: Performance Measures of Interrupted-Flow Roadways Using Re-Identification and Signal Controller Data

Performance measures in dialysis facilities: what is the goal?

As the care of patients gets more focused and directed by predetermined standards of care, physicians must not lose sight of the primary focus of their treatment goal-maximizing the quality of life of each patient. Physicians must recognize the uniqueness of each individual's experience and make every effort to understand the domains that are of concern to each patient. In addition, physicians ...

A trajectory-based computational model for optical flow estimation

A new computational model for optical flow estimation is proposed. The proposed model utilizes trajectory information present in a multiframe spatio-temporal volume. Optical flow estimation is formulated as an optimization problem. The solution to this optimization problem yields a velocity field corresponding to smoothest and shortest trajectories of constant intensity points within the spatio...

Reporting standards for guideline-based performance measures

BACKGROUND The Guidelines International Network (G-I-N) aims to promote high quality clinical guideline development and implementation. Guideline-based performance measures are a key implementation tool and are widely used internationally for quality improvement, quality assurance, and pay for performance in health care. There is, however, no international consensus on best methods for guidelin...

Utility-based Performance Measures for Regression

Costs and benefits are of key importance for most real-world data mining applications. The main work carried out within ML/DM on cost-sensitive learning has been centered on classification tasks. Nevertheless, there are many real-world regression applications where costs and/or benefits of the predictions play an important role. On such applications, the costs and/or benefits of a prediction ca...
