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. …”

Wave-packet dynamics in monolayer graphene with periodic scattering potentials by M.M. Suleimanov (22921019)

“…For example, depending on the height and size of the incident wave packet, the transmission probability can decrease by more than 30%. The alteration of the polarity of the potential barriers also contributes to the transmission probabilities of the wave packets in graphene. …”

The Anti-Tumor Agent Sodium Selenate Decreases Methylated PP2A, Increases GSK3βY216 Phosphorylation, Including Tau Disease Epitopes and Reduces Neuronal Excitability in SHSY-5Y Neu... by Wesal Habbab (17346961)

“…In conjunction with these data, whole-cell electrophysiological studies revealed that this concentration had maximum effect on membrane potentials, conductance and currents. Somewhat surprisingly, the catalytically active form, methylated PP2A (mePP2A) was significantly decreased. …”

The Potential Role of Daucus carota Aqueous and Methanolic Extracts on Inflammation and Gastric Ulcers in Rats by Wehbe, Katia

“…None of the extracts showed significant antibacterial activity. DCAE intake (250 mg/kg body weight) for one month period did not show adverse effects on lipemia, glycemia, hepatic and liver function except for a slight decrease in HDL cholesterol (p<0.05). …”

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). …”

Host Genetic Variants Potentially Associated With SARS-CoV-2: A Multi-Population Analysis by Maria K. Smatti (4675852)

“…Inter-population analysis showed that the distribution of risk alleles among Europeans differs substantially from Africans and EASs. Remarkably, Africans seem to carry extremely lower frequencies of SARS-CoV-1 susceptibility alleles, reaching to 32-fold decrease compared to other populations.…”

Proteomics Analysis of Human Obesity Reveals the Epigenetic Factor HDAC4 as a Potential Target for Obesity by Mohamed Abu-Farha (18535590)

“…HDAC4 could therefore represent a potential therapeutic target for the control and management of obesity and presumably insulin resistance.…”

Peripheral inflammatory and metabolic markers as potential biomarkers in treatment-resistant schizophrenia: Insights from a Qatari Cohort by Mohamed Adil Shah Khoodoruth (14589828)

“…However, removing <u>PANSS</u> scores notably decreased the model's diagnostic effectiveness. These results suggest that accessible peripheral laboratory parameters can serve as useful biomarkers for schizophrenia, potentially aiding in the early identification of TRS, enhancing personalized treatment strategies, and contributing to precision psychiatry. …”

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. …”
