Estimating Mean and Standard Deviation from the Sample Size, Three Quartiles, Minimum, and Maximum
Background: We sometimes want to include in a meta-analysis data from studies where results are presented as medians and ranges or interquartile ranges rather than as means and ...
The coefficient of determination R-squared is more informative than SMAPE, MAE, MAPE, MSE and RMSE in regression analysis evaluation
Regression analysis makes up a large part of supervised machine learning, and consists of the prediction of a continuous independent target from a set of other predictor variabl...
Effect size, confidence interval and statistical significance: a practical guide for biologists
Abstract Null hypothesis significance testing (NHST) is the dominant statistical approach in biology, although it has many, frequently unappreciated, problems. Most importantly,...
Treatment-effect estimates adjusted for small-study effects via a limit meta-analysis
Statistical heterogeneity and small-study effects are 2 major issues affecting the validity of meta-analysis. In this article, we introduce the concept of a limit meta-analysis,...
Confidence Sets for the Mean of a Multivariate Normal Distribution
SUMMARY An attempt is made to determine confidence sets for the mean of a multivariate normal distribution with known covariance matrix that take advantage of the fact that the ...
