- In modern-day organizations, many software applications require critical input to decide the next steps in the application workflow and approval. One of the most important inputs to decide the subsequent course of action is the key performance indicator-based scoring for the entities used in the application.…

In this paper, a new continuous scoring system for soccer is proposed, based on the proportion of time that a team is winning, losing or tied. Several simulations are made applying this technique to complete seasons of different leagues. As some preliminary fundamental analysis previews, the simulation results show…

Scoring rules aggregate individual rankings by assigning some points to each position in each ranking such that the total sum of points provides the overall ranking of the alternatives. They are widely used in sports competitions consisting of multiple contests. We study the trade-off between two risks in this setting…

'Amelie Friederike Kanzow' 'Dennis Schmidt' 'Philipp Kanzow'] Background Single-choice items (eg, best-answer items, alternate-choice items, single true-false items) are 1 type of multiple-choice items and have been used in examinations for over 100 years. At the end of every examination, the examinees’ responses have…

Selection of efficient multi-step synthesis routes is a fundamental challenge in organic synthesis. Comparing different routes involves numerous parameters, economic considerations, and integration of nuanced chemical knowledge. While computer-aided synthesis planning (CASP) tools can generate synthetic routes…

Memory deficits are a hallmark of many different neurological and psychiatric conditions. The Rey-Osterrieth complex figure (ROCF) is the state–of-the-art assessment tool for neuropsychologists across the globe to assess the degree of non-verbal visual memory deterioration. To obtain a score, a trained clinician…

—Assessing the skill level of players to predict the outcome and to rank the players in a longer series of games is of critical importance for tournament play. Besides weaknesses, like an observed continuous inflation, through a steadily increasing playing body, the ELO ranking system, named after its creator Arpad…

MolScore is an open-source Python framework for scoring and evaluating molecules in the context of goal-directed generative models as used in de novo drug design. MolScore includes many relevant scoring functions for de novo drug design such as molecular similarity, docking software, predictive models, and…

'Diego Amancio'] Background Writing composition is a significant factor for measuring test-takers’ ability in any language exam. However, the assessment (scoring) of these writing compositions or essays is a very challenging process in terms of reliability and time. The need for objective and quick scores has raised…

Density functional theory (DFT) is known as the workhorse of computational quantum chemistry. One of its main limitations, if not the main one, is that choosing the right functional to employ is a non-trivial task left for human experts. The choice is particularly hard for excited states calculations, when using the…

'Julio Alejandro Henriques Castro da Costa'] We introduce a novel system of matching and scoring players in tournaments, called Multi-Tier Tournaments, illustrated by chess and based on the following rules: 1. Players are divided into skill-based tiers, based on their Elo ratings. 2. Starting with one or more…

This study aimed to develop a comprehensive but easy to apply histologic grading system to score osteoarthritic changes in the whole knee joint for both spontaneous and posttraumatic osteoarthritis (OA) mouse models. The new OA grading scheme was developed based on extensive literature review and the authors’…

Ordinal data are the most frequently encountered type of data in the social sciences. Many statistical methods can be used to process such data. One common method is to assign scores to the data, convert them into interval data, and further perform statistical analysis. There are several authors who have recently…

Consensus scoring has become a commonly used strategy within structure-based virtual screening (VS) workflows with improved performance compared to those based in a single scoring function. However, no research has been devoted to analyze the worth of docking scoring functions components in consensus scoring. We…

'Maciej Zwolinski' 'Przemysław Biecek'] The most important part of model selection and hyperparameter tuning is the evaluation of model performance. The most popular measures, such as AUC, F1, ACC for binary classification, or RMSE, MAD for regression, or cross-entropy for multilabel classification share two common…

Protein-protein interactions play a ubiquitous role in biological function. Knowledge of the three-dimensional (3D) structures of the complexes they form is essential for understanding the structural basis of those interactions and how they orchestrate key cellular processes. Computational docking has become an…

ELO rating system is proposed by Arpad Elo, a Hungarian-American physics professor[1]. Originally, it was proposed for the ranking system of chess players, but it was soon adapted to many other zero-sum sports fields like football, baseball, basketball , etc. Nowadays, besides the traditional sports games…

A de novo molecular design workflow can be used together with technologies such as reinforcement learning to navigate the chemical space. A bottleneck in the workflow that remains to be solved is how to integrate human feedback in the exploration of the chemical space to optimize molecules. A human drug designer still…

In complex real-life motor skills such as unconstrained throwing, performance depends on how accurate is on average the outcome of noisy, high-dimensional, and redundant actions. What characteristics of the action distribution relate to performance and how different individuals select specific action distributions are…

Individuals, organs, tissues, and cells age in diverse ways throughout the lifespan. Epigenetic clocks attempt to quantify differential aging between individuals, but they typically summarize aging as a single measure, ignoring within-person heterogeneity. Our aim was to develop novel systems-based methylation clocks…

'Wei-Xing Zhou'] Ranking enables coaches, sporting authorities, and pundits to determine the relative performance of individual athletes and teams in comparison to their peers. While ranking is relatively straightforward in sports that employ traditional leagues, it is more difficult in sports where competition is…

Reinforcement learning (RL) is a powerful and flexible paradigm for searching for solutions in high-dimensional action spaces. However, bridging the gap between playing computer games with thousands of simulated episodes and solving real scientific problems with complex and involved environments (up to actual…
