A generative model for evaluating missing data methods in large epidemiological cohorts by Radosavljević, L, Smith, SM, Nichols, TE

“…For example, in the UK Biobank missing data tends to appear in blocks, because non-participation in one of the sub-studies leads to missingness for all sub-study variables. Methods: We propose a tool for generating mixed type missing data mimicking key properties of a given real large scale epidemiological data set with both structured and unstructured missingness while accounting for informative missingness. …”

Pareto Adaptive Robust Optimality via a Fourier–Motzkin Elimination lens by Bertsimas, Dimitris, ten Eikelder, Stefan C. M., den Hertog, Dick, Trichakis, Nikolaos

“…A worst-case optimal solution pair of here-and-now decisions and wait-and-see decisions is PARO if it cannot be Pareto dominated by another solution, i.e., there does not exist another worst-case optimal pair that performs at least as good in all scenarios in the uncertainty set and strictly better in at least one scenario. …”

Investigation of Ni as Zn substitute in CZTS thin film solar cell by Quek, Ka Jun

“…Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) was also done to check elemental composition of CNZTS in the thin film layer. AC Hall measurement was also conducted and it showed that the CNZTS layers have turned into n-type semiconductor when Ni substitution is more than 20% and also the carrier concentration increased significantly. …”
