Assessing uncertainty in image-based monitoring: addressing false positives, false negatives, and base rate bias in structural health evaluation by Vagelis Plevris (14158863)

“…However, its reliability is impacted by challenges such as false positives, false negatives, and environmental variability, particularly in low base rate damage scenarios. The Base Rate Bias plays a significant role, as low probabilities of actual damage often lead to misinterpretation of positive results. …”

Influence of Cognitive Bias on Decision Making in Mega Projects by ALNUAIMI, WALEED

“…The main reasons for cost overrun have been clustered into three groups namely technical, optimism bias and strategic misrepresentation. Since mega projects are increasing in size and number, and their poor performance has been consistent despite various proposals suggested based on project management best practices that have mainly focused on the technical element of implementing mega projects, the performance in mega projects has not improved prompting this study to focus on optimism bias and strategic misrepresentation where if optimism is exceeded, it is termed as over optimism and leads to cost overrun due to significant underestimation of costs. …”

The Influence of Cognitive Bias Attributes on Decision-making Style of the Project Manager: The Moderating Role of Narcissistic and Voice Behaviour by OBEIDAT, OMAR SALEM

“…The results indicated that: 1) CBA influences the decision-making style of project managers, 2) the relationship between CBA and the experiential decision-making style of the project manager is significant, whereas the rational decision-making style of the project managers is less affected by CBA, 3) using the experiential style to make a decision under uncertain events has a relatively negative influence on the success of projects as it is connected to CBA, 4) using the rational style to make a decision under uncertain events has a relatively positive influence on the success of the projects as it is less connected to CBA, 5) voice behaviour negatively moderates the relationship between cognitive bias and the decision-making style of project managers; however, the relationship was weak, and 6) NB does not moderate the relationship between CBA and the DM style. …”

Site-Adaptation of Modeled Solar Radiation Data: The SiteAdapt Procedure by Carlos M. Fernández-Peruchena (18558904)

“…It was tested at nine sites in a wide range of latitudes and climates, resulting in significant improvements of statistical indicators of dispersion, distribution similarity and overall performance: relative bias is reduced on average from −1.8% and −2.3% to 0.1% and 0.3% for GHI and DNI, respectively; relative root mean square deviation is reduced on average from 17.9% and 34.9% to 14.6% and 29.8% for GHI and DNI, respectively; the distribution similarity is also improved after the site-adaptation (KSI is 3.5 and 3.9 times lower for GHI and DNI at hourly scale, respectively). …”

As you sow, so shall you reap: Assessing drivers of socially responsible investment attitude and intention by Aashish Garg (17380339)

“…The research hypotheses were tested using covariance-based structural equation modelling (SEM). The findings suggest that investors' values (collectivism and biospheric values), biases (social responsibility bias and reliance on expert bias), and perceived performance of SRI contribute positively to the intentions towards SRI. …”

Robotic-assisted versus conventional total knee arthroplasty: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials by Reda Alrajeb (17773221)

“…</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">Our search returned seven RCTs suitable for our analysis, which included a total of 1942 knees; 974 of these knees were implanted using robotic arms while the remaining 968 utilized jig-based knee systems. Our findings indicated that robotic knees had significantly better post-operative anatomical (OR − 0.82; 95% CI, − 1.027 to − 0.58, p value < 0.00001) and mechanical restoration (OR − 0.95; 95% CI, − 1.49 to − 0.41, p value < 0.0006). …”

Machine Learning Based Photovoltaics (PV) Power Prediction Using Different Environmental Parameters of Qatar by Amith Khandakar (14151981)

“…The ANN models with all the features and features selected using correlation feature selection (CFS) and relief feature selection (ReliefF) techniques were found to successfully predict PV output power with Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 2.1436, 6.1555, and 5.5351, respectively. Two different bias calculation techniques were used to evaluate the instances of biased prediction, which can be utilized to reduce bias to improve accuracy. …”
