We propose vine copula mixed models for meta-analysis of diagnostic test accuracy studies with an imperfect...

A main challenge then is to identify de novo strains not present in the reference database, while quantifying the proportion...

A key challenge here is the heterogeneity in diagnostic accuracy across different reference standards, which may lead to biased evaluation of a device if improperly accounted for during the aggregation process. We propose an intuitive...
