Cultivating Innovation: The Role Of Mentoring In The Innovation Process, Susan Wills Amat

Open Access Dissertations

Organizations are seeking ways to become more innovative as a response to increased global competitiveness.

Optimal Cutpoint Estimation With Censored Data, Mithat Gonen, Camelia Sima

Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, Dept. of Epidemiology & Biostatistics Working Paper Series

We consider the problem of selecting an optimal cutpoint for a continuous marker when the outcome of interest is subject to right censoring. Maximal chi square methods and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves-based methods are commonly-used when the outcome is binary.

We use this as a basis for proposing maximal concordance as a metric to use with …
