The university plans to set up unbiased programs of postgraduate education on the Stanford campus rather than the industry-selected topics of the past that have been presented to rooms full of doctors at hotels and resorts.
Responses to selection and rates of inbreeding were predicted by deterministic methods for a conventional BLUP (best linear unbiased prediction) selection program and for a range of GS programs in order to identify a strategy that could double the response to selection per year with the same rate of inbreeding per year as the conventional program.
The Propensity Score Matching technique developed by Rosenbaum and Rubin [40] has been described as an alternative to obtaining unbiased estimates in assessing program effects [41, 42].
This is the procedure used by Mapmaker/QTL, and hence the results provided by this program are unbiased by the applied selection.
Waste has plagued the Radio and TV Martí programs since they were created in 1983 to provide "accurate, unbiased" news and entertainment programming to the Cuban people.
"If the mission of GAO is compromised by excessive cuts, where else can Congress turn to find unbiased data to improve programs and save money?" With the deficit-cutting super committee careening toward failure, and with what Coburn sees as Congress' dismal track record and few other good sources for advice, his report argues that taxpayers cannot count on lawmakers to fill the gap.
We would like to emphasize that, whenever possible, one should consider conducting an experimental study: In an ideal experiment with a randomized assignment into treatment and control groups, the simple difference in mean outcomes across both groups would yield an unbiased estimate of the true program effect.
