–The aim of this paper is to evaluate the quality of object oriented modules. In this work neural network approach is used along with PSO (particle swarm optimization) to find out fault prone components of software. The evaluation measures used are Accuracy, MAE (Mean absolute error), RMSE (Root mean square error) and the results are calculated on different iterations. The Accuracy, MAE, RMSE i...

Spatial cross-validation and average-error statistics are examined with respect to their abilities to evaluate alternate spatial interpolation methods. A simple crossvalidation methodology is described, and the relative abilities of three, dimensioned error statistics—the root-mean-square error (RMSE), the mean absolute error (MAE), and the mean bias error (MBE)—to describe average interpolator...

OBJECTIVES The 29-item Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale (MSIS-29) is a psychometrically validated patient-reported outcome measure increasingly used in trials of treatments for multiple sclerosis. However, it is non-preference-based and not amenable for use across policy decision-making contexts. Our objective was to statistically map from the MSIS-29, version 2, to the EuroQol five-dimension (E...

Abstract. The root-mean-squared error (RMSE) and mean absolute (MAE) are widely used metrics for evaluating models. Yet, there remains enduring confusion over their use, such that a standard practice is to present both, leaving it the reader decide which more relevant. In recent reprise 200-year debate Willmott Matsuura (2005) Chai Draxler (2014) give arguments favoring one metric or other. How...

energy management is one of the main ways of the efficient use of energy resources. the prediction of crop yields based on energy inputs can help farmers and policymakers to estimate the level of production. required data for study were randomly collected from 70 broiler farms in north west of iran. the input energies were included human labour, machinery, fuel, feed and electricity and the out...
