Comparison of clinical data based on limits of agreement

Luís M. Grilo, Helena L. Grilo (2012)

Biometrical Letters

Similarity:

Two different medical measurement methods, which usually do not produce exactly the same results, are used to analyse the serum levels of folic acid in a blood sample. We assess the (dis)agreement of the available data in order to replace the old method (the reference method, which involves a lot of human intervention) with the new one (which uses mostly machines), without causing problems in clinical interpretation. The 95% limits of agreement are estimated, before and after a logarithmic...

Detecting atypical data in air pollution studies by using shorth intervals for regression

Cécile Durot, Karelle Thiébot (2010)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

To validate pollution data, subject-matter experts in Airpl (an organization that maintains a network of air pollution monitoring stations in western France) daily perform visual examinations of the data and check their consistency. In this paper, we describe these visual examinations and propose a formalization for this problem. The examinations consist in comparisons of so-called shorth intervals so we build a statistical test that compares such intervals in a nonparametric regression...

Quantile plots in the analysis of heteroscedastic models.

Montserrat Pepió Viñals, Carlos Polo Miranda (1992)

Qüestiió

Similarity:

Recent developments in quality engineering methods have led to considerable interest in the analysis of variance, buiding a dispersion model, identifying important effects from replicated experiments and checking for significance by means of a half-normal plot. A methodology based on a chi-squared quantile plot is presented here for checking first the presence of heteroscedasticity, outliers and other data peculiarities, and after the estimation stage a new stepwise procedure tests for...
