EventBridge doesn't provide second-level precision in schedule expressions. The finest resolution using a cron expression is one minute. Due to the distributed nature of EventBridge and the target services, there can be a delay of several seconds between the time the scheduled rule is triggered and the time the target service runs the target resource.
difficulty_1_target can be different for various ways to measure difficulty.Traditionally, it represents a hash where the leading 32 bits are zero and the rest are one (this is known as "pool difficulty" or "pdiff").The Bitcoin protocol represents targets as a custom floating point type with limited precision; as a result, Bitcoin clients often approximate difficulty based on this (this is known as "bdiff").
We present and discuss four parameters (namely level of confidence, precision, variability of the data, and anticipated loss) required for sample size calculation for prevalence studies. Choosing correct parameters with proper understanding, and reporting issues are mainly discussed. We demonstrate the use of a purposely-designed calculators that assist users to make proper informed-decision and prepare appropriate report.
The report of sample size should be reproducible. It means that all parameters used must be reported. There are four parameters namely, level of confidence (mostly 95%), expected prevalence (mostly from literature or pilot study), the precision or margin of error of estimate (decision by researchers) and anticipated loss (experience of researchers) used in the calculation. We should also include the name of the software or calculator with proper reference. Scalex SP calculator has incorporated the draft report for the user to copy and use. It ensures all necessary parameters used are included in the report.
Major advantage of the Scalex SP calculator is that, it gives users Sample Size Table (Fig. 3) in which users can appreciate sample sizes for a range of precision, and appreciate or foresee the CIs in their results. Therefore, it helps users in decision making of selecting precision considering available resources.
The presented calculators are beneficial as the calculators incorporate non-response or other loss, indicate the anticipated 95% CI, give a list of sample sizes for a range of precisions therefore, guide to make informed decision for precision, and finally draft a sample size calculation report for scientific reporting.
Precision oncology, the molecularly targeted treatment of every cancer patient based on the individual genetic alterations of their tumor, is a highly anticipated, straightforward approach to beat cancer eventually. Efforts in precision oncology have been focusing on identifying single variables, predictive biomarkers, presence or absence of molecular alterations, able to predict alone the response to a molecularly targeted agent (MTA). This approach has led to the development of predictive companion diagnostic tests that are now part of the indication of many MTAs1,2. The introduction of predictive biomarkers in the drug discovery and clinical use of MTAs was a significant milestone in precision oncology, but using single biomarkers has severe limitations.
Due to the recent outstanding advancement of molecular diagnostics, especially next-generation sequencing (NGS), it is now possible to analyze multiple driver genes in parallel instead of one by one, even in routine clinical practice. The challenge of precision oncology today is to assess the functional significance of all detected genetic alterations of all potential driver genes (single-nucleotide variations (SNVs), indels, CNVs, structural changes), next choosing the right target and the matching MTA that can be effective in the presence of the unmatched drivers. The complexity is further increased by the different sensitivity of individual genetic alterations to different MTAs matching the same target.
### Changes since the last release
- Support for KSP 1.10.x
- OldGui has been removed.
- Minor graphical changes to the in-flight trajectory, nicer line and markers are now more stable.
- Added a green target marker to the in flight trajectory.
- NavBall target and crash markers have been fixed and updated,
target is now a green circle and predicted crash site is now a red square.
- Due to performance issues with larger craft, the Cache is now enabled by default. For higher precision,
it can still be turned off manually.
