Performance Evaluation - Science topic

What are the key elements of an evaluation and how the results may affect one's salary and bonuses?

Focusing on multinational corporations

I have developed a new technique. Although I have performed multiple experiments and obtained various "meaningful" results, I am unsure about how to evaluate the technique's performance and ensure the confidence of the obtained results since there are no other techniques available for comparison. What are the best practices for evaluating and validating a new technique in the absence of a benchmark tool or dataset?

Dear Scholars,

I am looking for a top Journal paper on the Computational Complexity of the Proposed Algorithm. What I am interested to read in the paper that evaluates their proposed algorithm should be around finding the complexity of the proposed algorithm. Your recommendations are welcome. Thank you

The algorithmic management of today comes in the form of AI-based solutions but it still is an algorithm with a binary system intact. What do you think of its usage and its novelty? How can we use AI-based evaluation to measure the efficiency of someone's work?

How should the Performance Evaluation in Medical Education be?

Can a Guideline be prepared in Performance Evaluation in Medical Education?

The assessment of clinical competence is becoming increasingly complex. Increased faculty workload, discontent with traditional methods of clinical skill assessment have led to the formation of new models of performance assessments.

Based on the changes, we need to documented guidelines.

Hello fellows, I'm about to begin my Master's thesis in 2 months. The thesis regards the modelling of dependencies in network-based Edge Clouds as well as the performance evaluation. I've done some research on which modelling language is the best one for my thesis.

Now I've got UML and SysML. My plan is to build a model with one of those languages and then transform the model into a Petri net model (or another quantitative model such as CTMC) in order to evaluate the performace, reliability, availability, and so on.

Could anyone tell me which of both language mentioned above or another modelling language I should use? I'd very much appreciate your help/ideas!

What are the different methods or techniques with which we could evaluate the performance of channel estimation algorithms in wireless communications systems, especially in Massive MIMO OFDM systems?

VoWiFi means that radio waves is used in wireless networks to exchange voice instead wired network. It enables VoLTE subscribers to access EPC network using WiFi register with IMS network. So that, they can use IMS services as voice calls, SMS, and other supplementary services and Subscribers can use WiFi to access EPC network when LTE is unavailable. VoWiFi is needed for Coverage Enhancement, If there is an area which has poor coverage but WiFi is available, Competence Enhance, Operators are willing to provide new services, Customer Retention, Operators provide free or unlimited services to attract more user, Saving Roaming Cost , Operators has WiFi roaming agreement in a suitable market, Less cost for operators, No need to build BTSs, In VoWiFi the caller and callee do not need to have the same application to talk to each other in contrast to OTT. The callee does not need to have internet connection to accept the call, and VoWiFi is seamless, handover is very simple and smooth VoWiFi has only three available choices, Untrusted access network and Trusted access network, IMS direct access, VoWiFi subscribers access a WiFi network, use the ePDG to attach to an EPC network, and then register with an IMS network, ePDG and AAA server is the new network elements for VoWiFi solution, all traffic is secured by AAA server and IP sec protocol, it depends mainly on VoLTE solution.

Hi there, ML experts!

What are the various ML evaluation method available to evaluate the effectiveness of the model. In other words, evaluating the ML model performance.

Work sampling is a methodical approach for measuring the share of time that individual spent performing certain activities. And i want to know whether there is a specific method to use when evaluating the performance of staff in an office environment, considering different departments. we already have conducted a business process mapping into the organization to avoid any repetitive operations.

The practice of nursing in ICU varies from country to country, even within them. This is why some tasks are delegated to technical staff which probably affects the scores of the Nursing Activities Score.

I am given with a BER of 1E-12 and 0.5UI eye-opening for the RX of a SerDes. Now, I have to design a PLL (frequency-synthesis) such that the 1E-12 BER spec is not violated.

Recently,my team submitted a meta-analysis.In our meta-analysis, sensitivity analysis was tested by removing one study at a time to calculate the overall homogeneity. Funnel plot, Begg’s and Egger’s test were performed to evaluate the presence of publication bias. One reviewer asked a question as follows:Would be of the use and more informative to the reader to add a scatter plot for sampling-based sensitivity analysis that the authors carried out.

    After reading a lot of literature, I still do not know how to answer this question. Can anyone tell me how to draw a scatter plot for sampling-based sensitivity analysis in a meta-analysis? If anyone have read the literature in this area?

    I look forward to receiving a reply.Thanks for the help.

Lets say I have a prokaryotic proteome. I want to calculate PR for each protein. PR calculation requires a database of protein sequences for different organisms. How many proteomes do I need to consider to calculate PR for each protein in my given organism?

Most structured observation methods that i found during my research cover an educational context and are very specific. 

I search for a method or instrument that covers indirect performance evaluation (usability tests).

Please share your experience in this field. How can we do performance evaluation with the help of KPI

Hi all, 

Currently, I am doing a research in classifying RBCs into four groups.

After extracting best features, I trained a pattern recognition Neural Network and performance is evaluated by 10-fold cross validation check. Miss-classification rate is around 6%. 

In another experiment, I tried to use SVM model to classify one group and three other groups so called one-versus-rest classifiers. Then again repeated same strategy for the 3-group class until there is no need for another binary classification. Performance is evaluated by the same technique applied in the Neural Network strategy. Miss-classification rate for the first binary SVM classifier is zero and for the second and third binary SVM classifier is 2.1% and 3.2%. Which strategy is better and why?

If multi stage SVM is outperforming NN strategy, how can I evaluate the miss-classification rate?

Cheers,

Bag filters are used to control particulate emission in industries. Their performance depends on pressure drop, flow, A to C ratio (air to cloth ratio) etc. We have to check bag filter frequently to know their working efficiency. And, to check their efficiency, we need to conduct performance audit or evaluation. So, is there any standard procedure to conduct performance evaluation of bag filters? 

Hi,

Can anyone suggest what would be the best benchmark for VM/ docker container performance evaluation? Also is anyone aware of real docker container workloads that are run in real production systems that I can obtain for performance evaluation?

in your view what exactly is strategic employee compensation and does HR management actually make real contributions to successful employee compensation? How effective are U S regulations, laws and mandates effecting compensation; including protecting against discrimination especially age related, circumventing FMLA, or prevailing wage laws.

thank you

I am asking this question here on research gate as I think there are a lot of experts out there in this field like you, so it would be an honor if you could share your thoughts about my questions. :)

Currently I am writing my Bachelor's Thesis and I would need to know whether there is an existing model that makes it calculable how KPIs and PIs affect the EBIT of a company or not.

Furthermore it would be interesting to know how to deal with the uncertainty of the effects of KPIs and PIs (e.g. if it is only possible to assume certain future values/effects)

To illustrate what I mean: Some KPIs may are obvious in terms of how they affect the EBIT, but what is with KPIs that are more soft KPIs where it is difficult to find out what the real effects will be?

First of all I would really like to thank you for every answer. If anyone needs further detailed explanation about my questions than just ask and I will answer it.

I want to develop questionnaire to carried out survey on  performance evaluation of green practices.

Evaluate of employee is important and difficult, Is there any way to use artificial intelligence to evaluate employee's efficiency by organization data?

I am working on a test rig, the test includes measurement of some parameters : pressure, temperature and water flow rate. For monitoring the variation of temperature, I was wondering what type of thermocouple that I could use, in other words, what are the test conditions that need to be specified to choose the suitable thermocouple, is it temperature range or the rate of temperature change or other factors?

Currently, I'm on the process of making my research paper. I made my own satisfaction survey questionnaire. Is it okay to make my own? How can I measure the reliability of my questionnaire? Moreover, my variables are FUNCTIONAL PERFORMANCE and TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE of a building. Attached here are my evaluation instruments. Please, feel free to comment or suggest. Thank you so much. 

P.S I want to validate my instruments if they are applicable for use in building performance evaluation. At the same time, I want to assess the building performance of the building. Just having a hard time on how to show relationships of functional and technical performance with the building performance.

In my study, performance of employees was rated by their supervisors,  Employees were randomly selected from 5 organizations through stratified random sampling, and total 308 employees provided data on different constructs, but their performance was evaluated by their supervisor.  There were 15 supervisors, do I need to calculate ICC, 

Kindly guide on how to calculate ICC,

As per I know NS3 does not provide any facility for D2D simulation. If available kindly provide me. ETRI developed a System-Level Simulator for Evaluating Performance of Device-to-Device Communication Underlaying LTE-Advanced Networks but it is not open source. I need an open source simulator for performance evaluation in D2D communication.

Often Management by Objective comes ahead about when we talk about setting goals during the performance appraisal process. But MBO might not suitable in all kinds of circumstances and organizations. 

I am currently working on performance evaluation of a solar thermal device. For this i have collected experimental data on the device that includes Solar radiation (direct and diffused), wind speed and 7 different temperatures. Each experiment last for 9 hours and the total number of experiments is 20. Experimental data is observed every 15 minutes. This makes huge amount of data to be presented. What is the best way to possibly represent this kind of data effectively.

Please let me know if in a generic thermodynamic cycle the thermal regeneration always increase the thermodynamic efficiency of said cycle or not. For example, in the Brayton cycle the thermal regeneration could increase or decrease the thermodynamic efficiency of the cycle in relation to the value of Tmin/Tmax and Pmax/Pmin. So I think that a priori the effect of the thermal regeneration in a generic thermodynamic cycle is unknown, in other word it is necessary to perform evaluation by means of simulations/calculation. Thanks

For example, some researchers suggest that gross profit can be used as an indicator for Customer Perspective or R&D costs for Learning and Growth. Are there any other indicators that you are aware of? I believe that finding such indicators is easier for manufacturing than service companies, any suggestions?

I appreciate any input you may have.

Organizational performance evaluation methods

Hi, I am trying to find a complete framework that I can use to test, evaluate, benchmark the performance of a given local IaaS service provider.

Dear Community, 

as part of an ongoing research project we are trying to evaluate the research quality of different medical research labs. There is an ongoing discussion which indicators are the best to determine the success of an lab. What do you think ? 

Is it numbers of research papers, numbers of citations of the research papers (Impact Factor), patents (especially in cooperate research),funds of the lab etc. ?

As a researcher what is your opinion? Thank you.

Hello respected people; I have got one question today. Lets us say that I am conducting a research on budget management and control in one hospital. So, I have 6 specific research objectives such as : to identify the primary purposes served by budgets in the hospital, to uncover the budgeting process in the hospital, to identify the challenges associated with budgeting in the hospital and 3 other specific objectives. But one of my 6 research objectives says “To examine the extent to which formal authority is delegated for the clinician managers in the hospital to run their unit”.

My reason to have this particular specific objective is that, previous studies demonstrated allocating formal authority for the clinicians is believed to influence clinical practices by holding them more accountable for their actions in allocation and use of resources (Abernethy, 1996; Abernethy & Lillis, 2001; Abernethy & Vagnoni, 2004; Campanale, Cinquini, & Tenucci, 2011; Cinquini & Campanale, 2010; Fitzgerald, 1994; Heyssel et al., 1984; Jones & Dewing, 1997). Being held accountable means that their performance is evaluated based on their compliance with formally specified financial targets (in particular with budget target) in their units. The desired outcome is to create a hospital that is not only responsive to the demands of patients but also one that is financially viable.

Thus, previous researches clearly shown formal authority of clinicians and budgetary control is significantly and positively correlated.

I didn’t do any statistical analysis by my own to investigate the degree of correlation between formal authority and budgetary control. I simply measured the level of formal authority given for the clinician managers in the hospital using likert skale. Thus, based on the findings from previous researches, my intention is to give recommendation to the hospital if the level of formal authority delegated for clinicians is low.  

Can I do that ? I mean without checking myself the degree of correlation between formal authority and budgetary control, but just only measuring formal authority and depending on previous researches that proved positive significant correlation between the two, can I recommend the hospital to give more formal authority for the clinicians?

Many thanks!

I work with the assessment of production system configurations with respect to operational, economic and environmental performances.

A production system configuration is meant to be a facility with specific equipment, layout, numbers of operators, etc.

The assessment involves a comparison of the configuration being studied with other alternative configurations (for instance, a case "yes, new equipment" VS "no new equipment, status quo"). The comparison is being done through discrete event simulation.

Now, my doubt is on how to make sure that the evaluation compare the two cases fairly. 

Beyond the fact that the two systems get supplied with the same input distribution of pieces to process, I wonder if I have to make sure that the two systems are evaluated and compared with the same level of performance operations wise (e.g., same yield, same efficiency).

To me, this is to make sure that both systems' operations are managed by the same people having the same expectations in terms of efficacy of operations management. 

An example of this approach is to optimizing both systems firstly and then compare the resulting performances. 

What are your thoughts on that?

Every idea and source is most welcome. I will particularly appreciate previous experiences in discrete event simulation of production systems and considerations about design of experiment in the context of production systems and operations.

The simulator should also be able to evaluate System throughput, scalability and capture concurrency, parallel computing. I will will be very grateful

Hello

A lot of thanks

I’m interested in the factors that predict employee evaluations, especially comparing the contribution of job performance and that of the quality of the employee-supervisor relationship. I’m a social psychologist who focuses on organizational phenomena, so perhaps I don’t have the right vocabulary or constructs in mind that are used by industrial psychologists.

Does anyone know of a study comparing the fraction of variability in performance evaluations due to the quality of employee-supervisor relationships with that associated with job performance?

for example: Balance scored sheet, bench marking ... Etc 

Validated Questionnaires which can be used to study the effectiveness of the PMS system in a Large organization.

I Realize studies on recognition of internal and external barriers that apply to the successors of family businesses during the succession.

Would You be so kind and give the three such barriers please.

I've come across many organisations during my past service with a number of Nepali public enterprises and commercial banks that many of them let their employees first fill up their self performance appraisal before their supervisors really would evaluate their performance. Is it really necessary, or does it serve like any basis for the real performance appraisal?

there are so many methodologies to assess the overall organization performance using Multi-criteria framework

how I could choose ?

The modeling problems using layers of detail facilitates the understanding of the phenomenon under study and simplifies the implementation of solutions. When performing the simulation of a layered model, can the clock used in one layer be used in the other? For example, in the agent-based systems approach each agent can have a clock and all agents are subject to a universal clock? What are the criteria for the randomness of the events studied? And how do you use the clocks in these simulations?

Evaluation metric: Is there some IR metric like weighted precision where the correct retrieved results are weighted by their ranks. For example:

Precision@5 gives equal weights to all the correct hits within top-5. However, I would like to give higher weight to hit at Rank1 then hit at Rank2 and so on until rank 5. 

I was doing it as follows: weighted precision= Sum⁵₁([# of hits at k]/ k)

Computer evaluation and comparison is becoming more and more challenging. Suppose that we have the same number of multiple cores and the same hardware.

When one measures hospital activity of individual clinicians, units, and departments, there is always the challenge of aiming for balancing workload. However, it is a known fact that there is a human level variation as regards speed, focus, and efficiency. Obviously, volume is not a measure of quality of care, for which we need key performance indicators. I am interested to know of evidence or experience whereby volume and quality can be effectively reconciled.

We have conducted an experiment on determining the prediction accuracy of a recommender system using two different data sets. Which statistical analysis is to be performed in order to correlate the results?

In addition to testing knowledge, my focus is on actual performance assessment using standardized performance examinations.

Considering systems transmitting the signals from the analog sources, Shannon proposed to use, as a criterion of their performance (fidelity), the mean distance between the recovered and input signals, that is the mean square error (MSE).

This criterion is commonly used and has relatively easily measured analog - empirical MSE.

Nevertheless, MSE is not used in modern communications being replaced by several internally connected criterions: bit-rate and its closeness to the capacity of the channel, BER and by the power – bandwidth efficiency of transmission.

What is a reason?.- These criterions create a lot of tradeoffs which substantially complicate evaluation and comparison of real performance of different systems.

MSE seems to be much more convenient and adequate.

I would be pleased if somebody could give the examples of communication systems whose performance is assessed by MSE.
