similar to: Cost Effectiveness Example

Hello, I was just assigned to perform a cost effectiveness study in healthcare. We are studying the cost effectiveness of a proposed diagnostic vs. current screening procedures. One of the team members suggest a commercial software package called "TreeAge Pro". Looking at the description, it appears to be a nice GUI to some very simple models that could be easily constructed in R.

Hello, this question is a bit out of the blue. I am a big R fan and user and in my new job I do some decision modeling (mostly health economics). For that decision trees are often used (I guess the most classic example is the investment decision A, B, and C with different probabilities, what is the expected payoff). We use a specialized software called TreeAge that some might know. The basic

Dear Sirs, I am a R beginning user: by mean of R I would like to apply the bootstrap to my data in order to test cost differences between independent or paired samples of people affected by a certain disease. My problem is that even if I am reading the book by Efron (introduction to the bootstrap), looking at the examples in internet and available in R, learning a lot of theoretical things on

Hi, I have a question about file permissions and how they are affected by a client's umask. To illustrate my question, I issued the following commands first on a local ext3 file system and then on a cifs file system: $ umask 0002 $ touch f1 $ echo xx > f2 $ umask 0022 $ touch f3 $ echo xx > f4 $ ls -l On Ext3, the output is: -rw-rw-r-- 1 abdv29 users 0 Oct 9 00:31 f1 -rw-rw-r-- 1

Hi all, I have successfully made and installed both gdal, and proj.4, but still cannot get rgdal to be installed in R. I think i'm very close. I do not have root access, if that matters, i've installed everything locally. I'm using debian on a beowulf cluster. I call: install.packages("rgdal", .libPaths()[1], configure.args =

Hello, My team and I have recently published an LLVM-based tool at “Cryptography and Security in Computing Systems 2016” (CS2), and we would like to add it on the list of LLVM related publications. The goal of our tool is to automatically protect the code being compiled against fault injection attacks *Title:* Compilation of a Countermeasure Against Instruction-Skip Fault Attacks Available

Everyone: If you work in Higher Education, in either an office of Institutional Research or an office Institutional Effectiveness, I'm keen to hear from you on how you use R, individually or with colleagues. Why do you use R? Is the cost savings an issue? Do you also maintain a license to more established packages (e.g., SPSS, SAS, or Minitab)? Are you encouraged (allowed?) to

I am new to R (ex SAS user) , and I cannot merge two data frames without getting duplicated rows in the results. How to avoid this happening without using the unique() function? 1.

Hi, I have made some changes to the file sch_gred.c to modify the GRED queueing discipline to support the following features: 1) The first virtual queue should get absolute priority while dequeueing (not caring if the others get starved) 2) While in equalise mode and with RIO mode enabled, the packets in the first virtual queue should not be counted for calculating the qave. I want to confirm if

Linux does not treat various kinds of memory pages differently. If you want a daemon to be fully in core, call mlockall(). Here's one way to do that without changing the daemon's source:

Sadly. It is just my first time I see this behaviour to this extent/on so many servers. So you can say that I'm kind of a

You're being quite vague about what the extra state is. Is this because you haven't yet settled on what it should be, or do you actually intend to let it be a template parameter: template <typename T> struct Cost { unsigned Val; T State; } Thanks, Christopher Tetreault From: llvm-dev <llvm-dev-bounces at lists.llvm.org> On Behalf Of David Sherwood via llvm-dev Sent:
