How Many Interviews Are Enough?
Guidelines for determining nonprobabilistic sample sizes are virtually nonexistent. Purposive samples are the most commonly used form of nonprobabilistic sampling, and their siz...

Towards Learning Terminological Concept Systems from Multilingual Natural Language Text
Terminological Concept Systems (TCS) provide a means of organizing, structuring and representing domain-specific multilingual information and are important to ensure terminologi...
Cancer Statistics, 2021
Abstract Each year, the American Cancer Society estimates the numbers of new cancer cases and deaths in the United States and compiles the most recent data on population‐based c...
Bootstrap Methods: Another Look at the Jackknife
We discuss the following problem: given a random sample $\\mathbf{X} = (X_1, X_2, \\cdots, X_n)$ from an unknown probability distribution $F$, estimate the sampling distribution...
The PRISMA statement for reporting systematic reviews and meta-analyses of studies that evaluate healthcare interventions: explanation and elaboration
Systematic reviews and meta-analyses are essential to summarise evidence relating to efficacy and safety of healthcare interventions accurately and reliably. The clarity and tra...
Cancer statistics, 2018
Abstract Each year, the American Cancer Society estimates the numbers of new cancer cases and deaths that will occur in the United States and compiles the most recent data on ca...
A Simple, Fast, and Accurate Algorithm to Estimate Large Phylogenies by Maximum Likelihood
The increase in the number of large data sets and the complexity of current probabilistic sequence evolution models necessitates fast and reliable phylogeny reconstruction metho...
Cluster analysis and display of genome-wide expression patterns
A system of cluster analysis for genome-wide expression data from DNA microarray hybridization is described that uses standard statistical algorithms to arrange genes according ...
A new mixing of Hartree–Fock and local density-functional theories
Previous attempts to combine Hartree–Fock theory with local density-functional theory have been unsuccessful in applications to molecular bonding. We derive a new coupling of th...
Can Quantum-Mechanical Description of Physical Reality Be Considered Complete?
In a complete theory there is an element corresponding to each element of reality. A sufficient condition for the reality of a physical quantity is the possibility of predicting...
A Fast Learning Algorithm for Deep Belief Nets
We show how to use “complementary priors” to eliminate the explaining-away effects that make inference difficult in densely connected belief nets that have many hidden layers. U...
