VALIDATION RESULTS [20 records]

English

Subject field(s)
  • Statistical Methods
CONT

In k-fold cross-validation, the original sample is randomly partitioned into k equal sized subsamples. Of the k subsamples, a single subsample is retained as the validation data for testing the model, and the remaining k − 1 subsamples are used as training data. The cross-validation process is then repeated k times, with each of the k subsamples used exactly once as the validation data. The k results can then be averaged to produce a single estimation.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Méthodes statistiques
CONT

La validation croisée à k blocs, «k-fold cross-validation» : on divise l'échantillon original en k échantillons (ou «blocs»), puis on sélectionne un des k échantillons comme ensemble de validation pendant que les k − 1 autres échantillons constituent l'ensemble d'apprentissage. Après apprentissage, on peut calculer une performance de validation. Puis on répète l'opération en sélectionnant un autre échantillon de validation parmi les blocs prédéfinis. À l'issue de la procédure[,] nous obtenons ainsi k scores de performances, un par bloc. La moyenne et l'écart type des k scores de performances peuvent être calculés pour estimer le biais et la variance de la performance de validation.

OBS

The Payload Support Center(PSC) is being implemented at the CSA [Canadian Space Agency] to conduct payload activities such as communication protocols verification and procedure validation & verification. The PSC will support crew training and mission simulations. The results of the PSC and DFL tests will be used in the final certification of a payload. In addition, the PSC will play an important role during the on-orbit operation of a payload. The payload flight backup unit or engineering model will be installed in the PSC and will be available to help the payload operators in case of any on-orbit problem. By using a duplicate of the payload in the PSC, the operators, with the help of the technical team, will be able to duplicate the situation and determine the proper corrective procedures. Those procedures will then be either forwarded to the on-orbit crew or to the ground operations personnel to correct the anomaly. The PSC includes the EXPRESS Rack Simulator, the Suitcase Simulator(when required), a workbench area for payload developers and a connection to the CSA Payload Telescience Operations Center(PTOC).

CONT

Wind erosion models have been used to assess policy impacts on soil erosion, but validation of models has been difficult until recently. We evaluated the Environmental Policy Integrated Climate(EPIC) wind erosion submodel by comparing simulation results to field measured wind erosion sediment losses. Using standard model inputs and actual wind velocities, wind erosion was simulated for a field near Lethbridge, Alberta where field measurements of wind erosion were made in April 1992 on a Dark Brown Chernozemic soil. The EPIC submodel predicted erosion losses for each day that erosion was measured, and approximated the magnitude of erosion on 6 of the 7 erosion events. EPIC significantly overestimated erosion for one event and also simulated erosion on 3 days when no erosion was recorded. Field length had a larger effect on simulation results during large erosion events than for smaller events. The effect of surface soil water content on wind erosion appeared to be captured by the model, but only limited data were available to evaluate this aspect. Other portions of the model such as the effects of surface roughness and vegetative cover could not be evaluated in this study.

The phallometric method of assessing erotic value of presented stimuli has 2 main tasks; 1 is the breaking down of complex(potentially) sexual stimuli into components, the other is diagnosing anomalous erotic preferences in nonadmitters, i. e., in persons whose behavior would imply there is such an anomaly, but who deny its presence.... Comparison of the scores on these scales with results of phallometric assessment showed(by mutual validation) that the phallometric method diagnoses admitters more accurately than nonadmitters.
