Using Random Effect Models to Produce Robust Estimates of Death Rates in COVID-19 Data (2022)
Journal Article
Almohaimeed, A., Einbeck, J., Qarmalah, N., & Alkhidhr, H. (2022). Using Random Effect Models to Produce Robust Estimates of Death Rates in COVID-19 Data. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 19(22), https://doi.org/10.3390/ijerph192214960

Tracking the progress of an infectious disease is critical during a pandemic. However, the incubation period, diagnosis, and treatment most often cause uncertainties in the reporting of both cases and deaths, leading in turn to unreliable death rates...

A robust Bayesian analysis of variable selection under prior ignorance (2022)
Journal Article
Basu, T., Troffaes, M. C., & Einbeck, J. (2023). A robust Bayesian analysis of variable selection under prior ignorance. Sankhya A - Mathematical Statistics and Probability, 85(1), 1014-1057. https://doi.org/10.1007/s13171-022-00287-2

We propose a cautious Bayesian variable selection routine by investigating the sensitivity of a hierarchical model, where the regression coefficients are specified by spike and slab priors. We exploit the use of latent variables to understand the imp... Read More about A robust Bayesian analysis of variable selection under prior ignorance.

The impact of a novel medication scanner on administration errors in the hospital setting: a before and after feasibility study (2022)
Journal Article
Tolley, C. L., Watson, N. W., Heed, A., Einbeck, J., Medows, S., Wood, L., …Slight, S. P. (2022). The impact of a novel medication scanner on administration errors in the hospital setting: a before and after feasibility study. BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making, 22(1), Article 86. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12911-022-01828-3

Objective: The medication administration process is complex and consequently prone to errors. Closed Loop Medication Administration solutions aim to improve patient safety. We assessed the impact of a novel medication scanning device (MedEye) on the...
