Accurate confidence intervals for binomial proportion and Poisson rate estimation.
TLDR
Accurate confidence interval estimators for proportions, rates, and their differences are described and MATLAB programs are made available and the resulting confidence intervals are validated and compared to common methods.About:

TL;DR: A reference table capable of predicting POM after RC, in an individualized fashion, is developed and externally validated by using stepwise variable removal to identify the most accurate and parsimonious model.

Cortical functional connectivity decodes subconscious, task-irrelevant threat-related emotion processing.
TL;DR: These findings identify FC that decodes subliminally perceived, task-irrelevant affective stimuli, and suggest that cortical structures are actively engaged by and appear to be essential for subliminal fear processing.

Drift-based and dual-parameter fragility curves for concentrically braced frames in seismic regions
TL;DR: In this paper, drift-based and dual-parameter fragility curves for steel braces as part of concentrically braced frames designed in seismic regions were developed for three damage states of steel braces subjected to cyclic loading associated with brace flexural buckling, local buckling and brace strength loss due to fracture.

Performance evaluation of a crop/weed discriminating microsprayer
TL;DR: An intelligent real-time microspraying weed control system was developed that was able to effectively control weeds larger than 11mmi?11mm and the fraction of injured plants was determined visually.
