Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCOMPARISON OF FIVE EXACT CONFIDENCE INTERVALS FOR THE BINOMIAL PROPORTIONIori Sakakibara, Emiko Haramo, Akimasa Muto et al.The Wald interval is easy to calculate; it is often used as the confidence interval for binomial proportions. However, when using this confidence interval, the actual coverage probability often falls under the nominal coverage probability in small cases. On the other hand, several confidence intervals where the actual cover age probability does not fall under the nominal coverage probability are … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 18 Jul 2014 · 8,109 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSESSMENT OF QUALITY OF LIFE IN CANCER PATIENTSFereshteh Farzianpour, Jalil Shojaee, Ghasem Abedi, Farideh RostamiStandards of Joint Commission International (JCI) emphasize on the organizational performance level in basic functional domains including patient right, patient care, medical safety and infection control. These standards are focused on two principles: Expectations of the actual organizational performance and assessment of organizational capabilities to provide high quality and safe Health Care Services (HCS). The aim of this study was … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 9 Jan 2014 · 8,145 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSOCIATION OF APGAR SCORE WITH DELIVERY MODE IN THE NON DISTRESS NEWBORNSKaramatollah Rahmanian, Abdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Vajihe Rahmanian et al.The Apgar score is the most commonly used measure of newborn infant well-being. Infants of women with caesarean section were at increased risk of low Apgar score and/or perinatal death. The aim of study was to determine the impact of the cesarean section on Apgare score. This is a case-control study, which compared 100 Elective Cesarean Section (ECS) cases, with … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 28 Dec 2013 · 7,780 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOperational Fault Diagnosis in Industrial Hydraulic Systems Through Modeling The Internal Leakage of its ComponentsP. Athanasatos, D. Koulocheris, T. Costopoulos, K. RaptisIn this study, a model of a high pressure hydraulic system was developed using the bond graph method to investigate the effect of the internal leakage of its main components (pump, cylinder and 4/2 way valve) on the operational characteristics of the system under various loads. All the main aspects of the hydraulic circuit (like the internal leakages, the compressibility … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 7 Nov 2013 · 7,247 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractANALYSIS OF BAYESIAN CLASSIFIER ACCURACYFelipe Schneider Costa, Maria Marlene De Souza Pires, Silvia Modesto NassarThe naïve Bayes classifier is considered one of the most effective classification algorithms today, competing with more modern and sophisticated classifiers. Despite being based on unrealistic (naïve) assumption that all variables are independent, given the output class, the classifier provides proper results. However, depending on the scenario utilized (network structure, number of samples or training cases, number of variables), the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 26 Sep 2013 · 8,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Gaussian Process Regression Model for the Traveling Salesman ProblemWanatchapong Kongkaew, Juta PichitlamkenProblem statement: Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is a famous NP hard problem. Many approaches have been proposed up to date for solving TSP. We consider a TSP tour as a dependent variable and its corresponding distance as an independent variable. If a predictive function can be formulated from arbitrary sample tours, the optimal tour may be predicted from this function. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 30 Aug 2012 · 7,367 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficacy of an Oral Health-Promoting Program in Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected Children: A 7-year Longitudinal StudyNathalia Ferraz Oliscovicz, Gloria Fernanda Barbosa de Araújo Castro, Luciana Pomarico, Ivete Pomarico Ribeiro de SouzaProblem statement: Children infected with HIV have a higher prevalence of caries in both dentitions. With that in mind, it is important the introduction of programmes for the control of caries disease in this population. Thus, this study was aimed to assess the efficacy of an oral health-promoting program in controlling caries in HIV-infected children after 7 years of follow-up. … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Jul 2012 · 7,907 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Progranulin Gene Expression as a Molecular Biomarker for Bladder CancerSalwa M. Abo El-khair, Mie A. Mohamed, Tamer E. AlkhiaryBladder cancer is the second most common cancer of the urinary system. Early diagnosis of this tumor and estimation of risk of future progression has a significant impact on prognosis. Although there are several molecular markers for the diagnosis and prognosis for this tumor, their accuracy is not ideal. Progranulin is a growth factor that may play a critical role … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 7,699 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConfidence Interval for Cpm Based on Dp,q DistanceBahram Sadeghpour Gildeh, Samaneh AsghariProblem statement: A measurement control system ensures that measuring equipment and measurement processes are fit for their intended use and its importance in achieving product quality objectives. Approach: The manufacturing industries have been making an extensive effort to implement Statistical Process Control (SPC) in their plants and supply bases. Results: Capability indices derived from SPC have received increasing usage not … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2012 · 7,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Bayesian Method for Disentangling Dependent Structure of Epistatic InteractionJing Zhang, Qu Zhang, Darrin Lewis, Michael Q. ZhangProblem statement: We propose a Bayesian method (RBP) to recursively infer the independence structure of epistatic interactions in case-control study. Approach: Based on the results of BEAM2, RBP can powerfully detect the marginal and conditional independence within interacting SNPs even in the complicated interaction cases. Results: We did extensive simulations to test RBP and compare it with stepwise logistic regression. … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2012 · 7,476 accessesView PDFCite
