Measurement noise covariance estimation in Gaussian filters: an online Bayesian solution by Gerald LaMountain, Jordi Vilà-Valls, Pau Closas

“…We propose an alternative Bayesian approach to recursively estimate the innovation covariance concurrently with state estimation, guaranteeing the requisite properties of the covariance and eliminating the need for an explicit measurement noise statistics model. The proposed Bayesian statistics estimation (BSE) method is embedded within a sigma-point Kalman filter, and adapted to non-stationary noise processes using Gaussian filter consistency tests. …”

Diagnostic criteria for transient ischemic attack by E. R. Lebedeva, N. M. Gurary, J. Olesen

“…The diagnosis of transient ischemic attack (TIA) is fraught with problems; particularly this concerns the differentiation of TIA with its mimicking conditions. Explicit diagnostic criteria can improve the accuracy of TIA recognition. …”

Eradication of Helicobacter pylori for prevention of aspirin-associated peptic ulcer bleeding in adults over 65 years: the HEAT RCT by CJ Hawkey, Anthony J Avery, Carol AC Coupland, Colin J Crooks, Jennifer S Dumbleton, FD Richard Hobbs, Denise Kendrick, Michael Moore, Clive Morris, Gregory Rubin, Murray Smith, Diane Stevenson

“…Consenting participants aged ≥ 60 years prescribed aspirin ≤ 325 mg but not ulcerogenic or gastroprotective medication underwent C13 urea breath testing for H. pylori. Those with a positive test were randomised to receive either a combination of clarithromycin 500 mg, metronidazole 400 mg and lansoprazole 30 mg, or placebos twice daily for 7 days. …”

Distinct patterns of connectivity with the motor cortex reflect different components of sensorimotor learning. by Corson N Areshenkoff, Anouk J de Brouwer, Daniel J Gale, Joseph Y Nashed, Jonathan Smallwood, J Randall Flanagan, Jason P Gallivan

“…We test the generalizability of these neural axes to a separate form of motor learning known to rely mainly on explicit processes and show that it is only the Explicit neural axis, composed of higher-order areas in transmodal cortex, that predicts learning in this task. …”

The Constant Comparative Method of Qualitative Analysis by Barney G. Glaser

“…The purpose of the constant comparative method of joint coding and analysis is to generate theory more systematically than allowed by the second approach, by using explicit coding and analytic procedures. While more systematic than the second approach, this method does not adhere completely to the first, which hinders the development of theory because it is designed for provisional testing, not discovering, of hypotheses. …”
