Intermittent demand forecasting by Mishra, Prerna.

“…However, comparison of result obtained for in-sample and out-of-sample forecasts by different modelling tools for same data of intermittent demand is scarce. The project paper deals with comparative assessment of the of forecast for “in-sample” as well as “out of sample” periods derived by various methods of intermittent demand forecasting on historical data set of fifteen hundred products for a span of twenty four months obtained by several numerical modelling tools – classical to contemporary and evaluate the superiority of models by comparison of achievement of different methods in respect of degree of accuracy of forecast for future periods and judge the robustness of forecasting methodology.…”

Patterns of link reciprocity in directed, signed networks by Gallo, A, Saracco, F, Lambiotte, R, Garlaschelli, D, Squartini, T

“…To fill this gap, we focus on signed, directed connections, with the aim of exploring the notion of frustration in such a context. When dealing with signed, directed edges, frustration is a multi-faceted concept, admitting different definitions at different scales: if we limit ourselves to consider cycles of length two, frustration is related to reciprocity, i.e. the tendency of edges to admit the presence of partners pointing in the opposite direction. …”

Professionals’ views on providing personalized recurrence risks for de novo mutations: implications for genetic counseling by Kay, A, Wells, J, Hallowell, N, Goriely, A

“…While thematic analysis of the interviews indicated perceived clinical utility, it also indicates a need to prepare couples for the psychosocial implications of parent-of-origin information and to support their understanding of the assessment being offered. When dealing with personalized reproductive risk, a traditional non-directive approach may not meet the needs of practitioner and client(s) and shared decision-making provides an additional framework that may relieve some patient burden. …”
