The Economist has seen these, and other materials, and has been investigating their accuracy and significance.
As the political scientist Richard Betts has argued, in intelligence analysis there tends to be an inverse relationship between accuracy and significance, and this is the dilemma posed by the Mincemeat case.
Morbidity and mortality statistics acquire accuracy and significance when based on careful autopsies; they also often give the first indication of contagion and epidemics.
When a reporter steals a quote from a rival's story, as Blair often did, the reader is misled about the enterprisingness and honesty of the reporter but not, or not necessarily, about the accuracy or significance of what the quotee has said.
Therefore, in this sense the RIM model has both an "external" validation where real observable outcomes were used to derive the resilience index and an "internal" validation where statistical accuracy and significance level are computed.
In many simulations (Cox 2008), the real coalescent value was actually outside the 95% CI of the estimate, suggesting that we should reevaluate both the accuracy and significance of most coalescent estimates.
Experiments on the BAliBASE 2.0 database were conducted and the results confirm that MSAGMOGA obtains the results with better accuracy statistical significance compared with the three well-known methods in aligning multiple sequence alignment with affine gap.
In the current manuscript, we demonstrate the prediction accuracy, statistical significance, and potential clinical impact of this three-tiered risk stratification system.
While these studies can be illuminating in terms of the novel couplings they reveal and general performance of the algorithms, it is often difficult to compare between them because notions of accuracy and significance vary from author to author.
