Estimating Complex Signals With a Fuzzy-Enhanced Kalman Filter: A Note on “the Output Regulation and the Kalman Filter as the Signal Generator” by Jesus Alberto Meda-Campana, Juan Carlos Garcia-Hernandez, Rodolfo Daniel Velazquez-Sanchez, Luis Alberto Paramo-Carranza, Tonatiuh Hernandez-Cortes, Ricardo Tapia-Herrera

“…To overcome this problem, this paper proposes a solution for estimating complex, unmodeled, and noise-contaminated signals while simultaneously obtaining a low-dimensional dynamical model whose output approximates the actual noise-free signal. This is achieved by incorporating a fuzzy error covariance matrix into the standard linear Kalman filter algorithm. …”

External validation of radiobiological models for local control prediction in lung cancer patients treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy by Bao-Tian Huang, Pei-Xian Lin, Ying Wang, Li-Mei Luo

“…The calibration plots, using the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test, confirmed that the predicted probabilities of the models were in agreement with the actual observation with P>0.05, except for the 2-year LC prediction using the Klement model.ConclusionConsidering the balance between prediction accuracy and model simplicity, it is recommended to utilize the Ohri model for 2-year LC prediction and either the Gucken model or Santiago model for 3-year LC prediction.…”

Reconstruction of Dynamical Forecasting Model between Western Pacific Subtropical High Area Index and Its Summer Monsoon Impact Factors Based on the Improved Self-Memorization Prin... by Mei Hong, Ren Zhang, Xi Chen, Shanshan Ge, Chengzu Bai, Vijay P. Singh

“…To overcome the problem of single initial prediction value, the largest Lyapunov exponent is introduced to improve the traditional self-memorization function, making it more appropriate to describe the chaotic systems, such as WPSH; the equation reconstruction by actual data is used as its dynamical core to overcome the problem of relatively simple dynamical core. …”

Modeling optimal combination of breast and cervical cancer screening strategies in China by Xuewei Liu, Yanbo Wang, Bei Gao, Xinlin Lu, Yuan Wang, Wenli Lu

“…Thereafter, as the cost input continued to increase, the optimal combination strategy remained unchanged, and the sum of incremental life-years and actual input costs did not increase. Conclusions From a social cost–benefit perspective, biennial BUS and MAM in parallel screening, and quinquennial HPV screening is the most efficient combination strategy with limited budget, while annual CBE, BUS and MAM in series screening and biennial TCT and HPV in series screening are the most efficient combination strategy with sufficient budget.…”
