Nonparametric permutation tests for functional neuroimaging: A primer with examples

Nichols, Thomas E.; Holmes, Andrew P. - 2002

Requiring only minimal assumptions for validity, nonparametric permutation testing provides a flexible and intuitive methodology for the statistical analysis of data from functional neuroimaging experiments, at some computational expense. Introduced into the functional neuroimaging literature by...

Using the Net Benefit Regression Framework to Construct Cost-effectiveness Acceptability Curves: An Example Using Data from a Trial of External Loop Recorders versus Holter Monitor...

Hoch, Jeffrey S.; Rockx, Marie Antoinette; Krahn, Andrew D. - 2006

Background: Cost-effectiveness acceptability curves (CEACs) describe the probability that a new treatment or intervention is cost-effective. The net benefit regression framework (NBRF) allows cost-effectiveness analysis to be done in a simple regression framework. The objective of the paper is...

Copula Based Prediction Models: An Application to an Aortic Regurgitation Study

Kumar, Pranesh; Shoukri, Mohamed M. - 2007

Background: An important issue in prediction modeling of multivariate data is the measure of dependence structure. The use of Pearson's correlation as a dependence measure has several pitfalls and hence application of regression prediction models based on this correlation may not be an...

Interval Estimation and Optimal Design for the Within-subject Coefficient of Variation for Continuous and Binary Variables

Shoukri, Mohamed M.; Elkum, Nasser; Walter, Stephen D. - 2006

Background: In this paper we propose the use of the within-subject coefficient of variation as an index of a measurement's reliability. For continuous variables and based on its maximum likelihood estimation we derive a variance-stabilizing transformation and discuss confidence interval...
