Using ordinal logistic regression to evaluate the performance of laser-Doppler predictions of burn-healing time
Journal Article
performance of laser-Doppler predictions of burn-healing time. BMC Medical Research Methodology, 9(11), https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2288-9-11

Background

Laser-Doppler imaging (LDI) of cutaneous blood flow is beginning to be used by burn surgeons to predict the healing time of burn wounds; predicted healing time is used to determine wound treatment as either dressings or surgery. In this... Read More about Using ordinal logistic regression to evaluate the performance of laser-Doppler predictions of burn-healing time.

Mathematical modelling with generalised logarithm and exponential functions
Journal Article
Baker, R. Mathematical modelling with generalised logarithm and exponential functions. Mathematics today, 50(2), 98-101

That `elementary transcendental function', the logarithm,
is a very familiar function, that we learn
early on, and I can still recall a mathematics teacher at school telling
the class solemnly that `all logarithms are indices'. It seemed like a... Read More about Mathematical modelling with generalised logarithm and exponential functions.

Multi-period market risk estimation and performance evaluation : evidence from univariate, multi-variate and options data
Thesis
Iqbal, R. (in press). Multi-period market risk estimation and performance evaluation : evidence from univariate, multi-variate and options data. (Thesis). University of Salford

There are different risk management approaches available, as different firms have different risk goals. Value at risk (VaR) is the most frequently used risk measure for asset or portfolio risk and certainly, per the Basel framework, is a preferred me...
