Abstract:
Coronary artery heart disease (CAD) is a common condition which can impair the quality of life and lead to cardiac infarctions. Traditional criteria during exercise tests are good but far from perfect. A lot of patients with inconclusive tests are referred to radiological examinations. By finding better evaluation criteria during the exercise test we can save a lot of money and let the patients avoid unnecessary examinations. Computers record amounts of numerical data during the exercise test. In this retrospective study 267 patients with inconclusive exercise test and performed radiological e

Abstract:
As automation in the financial service industry continues to advance, online investment advice has emerged as an exciting new field. Vital to the accuracy of such service is the determination of the individual investors’ ability to bear financial risk. To do so, the statistical method of logistic regression is used. The aim of this thesis is to identify factors which are significant in determining a financial risk profile of a retail investor. In other words, the study seeks to map out the relationship between several socioeconomic- and psychometric variables to develop a predictive model able

Abstract:
The Bayesian approach to logistic regression modelling for credit scoring is useful when there are data quantity issues. Data quantity issues might occur when a bank is opening in a new location or there is change in the scoring procedure. Making use of prior information (available from the coefficients estimated on other data sets, or expert knowledge about the coefficients) a Bayesian approach is proposed to improve the credit scoring models. To achieve this, a data set is split into two sets, “old” data and “new” data. Priors are obtained from a model fitted on the “old” data. This model is

Abstract:
In drug-testing experiments the primary responses of interest are efficacy and toxicity. These can be modeled as a bivariate quantal response using the Gumbel model for bivariate logistic regression. D-optimal and Q-optimal experimental designs are developed for this model The Q-optimal design minimizes the average asymptotic prediction variance of p(l,O;d), the probability of efficacy without toxicity at dose d, over a desired range of doses. In addition, a new optimality criterion, T -optimality, is developed which minimizes the asymptotic variance of the estimate of the therapeutic index.

In microarray analysis, people are interested in those features that have different characters in diseased samples compared to normal samples. The usual p-value method of selecting significant genes either gives too many false positives or cannot detect all the significant features. The False Discovery Rate (FDR) method controls false positives and at the same time selects significant features. We introduced Benjamini's method and Storey's method to control FDR, applied the two methods to human Meningioma data.

Despite its popularity, the concept remains without a consistent or agreed upon definition. For example, persistent offending has been variably defined as offending before and during adulthood (e.g., Bergman & Andershed, 2009), frequent offending (e.g., McGloin & Stickle, 2011), or an early age of first offence (e.g. Hay & Forrest, 2009).
