Presence-only data and the em algorithm.

TL;DR: An expectation-maximization algorithm is proposed to estimate the underlying presence-absence logistic model for presence-only data and it is shown that the population prevalence of a species is only identifiable when there is some unrealistic constraint on the structure of theLogistic model.
Journal Article

Boosting as a Regularized Path to a Maximum Margin Classifier

TL;DR: It is built on recent work by Efron et al. to show that boosting approximately (and in some cases exactly) minimizes its loss criterion with an l1 constraint on the coefficient vector, and shows that as the constraint is relaxed the solution converges (in the separable case) to an "l1-optimal" separating hyper-plane.

Meta-analysis of Trials Comparing β-Blockers, Calcium Antagonists, and Nitrates for Stable Angina

TL;DR: β-Blockers provide similar clinical outcomes and are associated with fewer adverse events than calcium antagonists in randomized trials of patients who have stable angina in a comparison of relative efficacy and tolerability in antianginal drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Causal Interpretations of Black-Box Models

TL;DR: The possibility of extracting causal interpretations from black-box machine-trained models, and three requirements to make causal interpretations: a model with good predictive performance, some domain knowledge in the form of a causal diagram and suitable visualization tools.
