Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Pan Evaporation for Kuwait using Multiple Linear Regression and Time-Series TechniquesJaber AlmedeijThis study attempts to model evaporation for Kuwait under arid conditions by using a wide range of monthly evaporation data, varying from 0.1 to 40 mm/day, from January 1993 to July 2015. Owing to the reason that the well-known theoretical evaporation models presented in the literature have been justified for a much shorter data range, the paper adopts empirical approaches … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 8 Jun 2016 · 7,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeterogeneities and Intra Sand-Body Compartmentalization in Late Oligocene Delta-Front Deposit, Niger Delta, NigeriaRaphael Oaikhena Oyanyan, Michael Ndubuisi OtiThis paper presents the study of the heterogeneity in lithofacies, porosity, permeability, mineral grain density, pore-throats sizes and hydraulic rock types and the intra sand-body compartmentalization in cored delta-front deposit of Greater Ughelli depobelt of Niger Delta. Sedimentological study of core samples results in the identification of nine lithofacies and the interpretation of environments of deposition as mainly proximal and … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2016 · 8,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractE-loyalty and Business to Business (B2B) E-Commerce Success: Applied Study on Sample of E-Retailers in Amman City, JordanAhed Al-Haraizah, Baha`a Al-NadyThis research paper investigates the antecedents and consequences of customer loyalty in an online business-to-business e-commerce context. Moreover, this research identifies two key factors of e-loyalty (attitudinal and behavioral loyalty) that potentially impact business to business e-commerce success within e-retailers in Amman city. Therefore, the aim of this research paper is to develop a comprehensive research model utilized for discovering … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 2 Sep 2015 · 7,877 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA NOVEL ROBUST AND EFFICIENT TOOL FOR DETECTING HETEROSCEDASTICITYWei Xiong, Maozai TianOne of the greatest values of Quantile Regression (QR) is that it provides a good procedure in the sense that QR could be much more efficient and sometimes arbitrarily more efficient in recovering the mean function than the Least Squares (LS) even when without moment conditions. However, heteroscedasticity definitely causes conditional variances of parametric or nonparametric estimates of mean functions … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 21 Mar 2014 · 6,662 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPERFORMANCE OF RIDGE REGRESSION ESTIMATOR METHODS ON SMALL SAMPLE SIZE BY VARYING CORRELATION COEFFICIENTS: A SIMULATION STUDYAnwar Fitrianto, Lee Ceng YikWhen independent variables have high linear correlation in a multiple linear regression model, we can have wrong analysis. It happens if we do the multiple linear regression analysis based on common Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method. In this situation, we are suggested to use ridge regression estimator. We conduct some simulation study to compare the performance of ridge regression estimator … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 3 Jan 2014 · 8,545 accessesView PDFCite
