Econometric Analysis of Cross Section and Panel Data
The second edition of this acclaimed graduate text provides a unified treatment of two methods used in contemporary econometric research, cross section and data panel methods. B...
MrBayes 3.2: Efficient Bayesian Phylogenetic Inference and Model Choice Across a Large Model Space
Since its introduction in 2001, MrBayes has grown in popularity as a software package for Bayesian phylogenetic inference using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. With thi...
RoB 2: a revised tool for assessing risk of bias in randomised trials
Assessment of risk of bias is regarded as an essential component of a systematic review on the effects of an intervention. The most commonly used tool for randomised trials is t...
Squeeze-and-Excitation Networks
Convolutional neural networks are built upon the convolution operation, which extracts informative features by fusing spatial and channel-wise information together within local ...
Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions
The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions is the official document that describes in detail the process of preparing and maintaining Cochrane systematic revi...
Comparative fit indexes in structural models.
Normed and nonnormed fit indexes are frequently used as adjuncts to chi-square statistics for evaluating the fit of a structural model. A drawback of existing indexes is that th...
Soft self-consistent pseudopotentials in a generalized eigenvalue formalism
A new approach to the construction of first-principles pseudopotentials is described. The method allows transferability to be improved systematically while holding the cutoff ra...
Intraclass correlations: Uses in assessing rater reliability.
Reliability coefficients often take the form of intraclass correlation coefficients. In this article, guidelines are given for choosing among six different forms of the intracla...
<i>Ab initio</i>molecular-dynamics simulation of the liquid-metal–amorphous-semiconductor transition in germanium
We present ab initio quantum-mechanical molecular-dynamics simulations of the liquid-metal--amorphous-semiconductor transition in Ge. Our simulations are based on (a) finite-tem...
Atoms, molecules, solids, and surfaces: Applications of the generalized gradient approximation for exchange and correlation
Generalized gradient approximations (GGA’s) seek to improve upon the accuracy of the local-spin-density (LSD) approximation in electronic-structure calculations. Perdew and Wang...
Cancer statistics, 2020
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 po...
