Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Comparative Study on Barrier Option Pricing using Antithetic and Quasi Monte-Carlo SimulationsNneka Umeorah, Phillip MasheleMonte-Carlo simulations have been utilized greatly in the pricing of derivative securities. Over the years, several variance reduction techniques have been developed to curb the instability, as well as, increase the simulation efficiencies of the Monte-Carlo methods. Our approach in this research work will consider the use of antithetic variate techniques to estimate the fair prices of barrier options. Next, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 9 May 2018 · 8,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordProgressive Resistance Training on Elderly HIV+ Patients: Does it Work?Paula Maria Loiola De Souza, Wilson Jacob Filho, José Maria Santarém et al.Elderly people present significant alterations on body composition and physical fitness, compromising their quality of life. Chronic diseases, including HIV/AIDS, worsen this situation by increasing aging effects on body composition and muscle strength. Resistance exercises are prescribed by major health organizations for improving fitness and promoting a shift towards a healthier and more independent aging. In addition, recovering strength and … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,740 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordUsing the Environmental Kuznets Curve to Study the Mutual Effects between CO2 Emissions and Economic Growth in JordanMohaned Al-Hamdi, Mohammad Alawin, Kais Alwan, Saeed Al-TarawnehThis article has been retracted at the request of the corresponding author. One of the conditions of submission of a paper for publication is that authors declare explicitly that their work is original and has not appeared in a publication elsewhere. Re-use of any data should be appropriately cited. As such this article represents an abuse of the scientific publishing … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2016 · 8,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordObservational Study of Wind Shear in Northeastern BrazilFernando R. Martins, André R. Gonçalves, Enio B. PereiraThe wind energy share is growing fast in Brazil and a better understanding of wind speed vertical profiles is essential for accurate power density estimates. The wind shear is highly variable in space and time, being influenced by surface layer stability. Studies concerning wind vertical profiles may have a significant contribution to the Brazilian energy sector. However, wind observational data … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 12 Mar 2016 · 8,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordStudy of Heavy Metals in the Surface Sediments of the Main Wadis in the Region of Meknes-MoroccoA. Lammini, A. Dehbi, H. Omari, A. AbdallaouiBecause of their growing demographic and industrial expansion, the urban areas of the city of Meknes are likely to disturb the ecological balance of watercourse. In the present work, we had evaluate the degree of sediment’s contamination by heavy metals (Al, Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn, Pb and Zn) in the main wadis of the Meknes region (Boufekrane, Wislane and Toulal) … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2015 · 7,109 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessAll words, across the recordData Mining in Time Series: Current Study and Future TrendTan Yan, Liudmila Ulanova, Ye Ouyang, Fengyuan XuTime series represent sequences of data points where usually their order is defined by the time when they were recorded. Thus, virtually any sequential recordings can be stored as time series: Stock prices, weather conditions, physical system parameters change, product quality monitoring, etc. This leads to ubiquity of time series in all scientific and practical fields (Esling and Agon, 2012); … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 26 Jan 2015 · 8,756 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordINTEGRATION OF POKA YOKE INTO PROCESS FAILURE MODE AND EFFECT ANALYSIS: A CASE STUDYA. P. Puvanasvaran, N. Jamibollah, N. NorazlinThe Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is a one of the requirements which was required by the Automotive Industries Action Group (AIAG) to all the automotive suppliers and manufacturers worldwide through the TS16949 Quality System. There were a lot of dicrepencies detected on implementing the FMEA which directly related to the user experinces and knowledge. The descrepencies cause the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 24 May 2014 · 13,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordStructural Consequences of the Polymorphism Q223R in the Human Leptin Receptor: A Molecular Dynamics StudyJonathan P. Carrillo-Vázquez, Brenda Chimal-Vega, Beatriz Zamora-López et al.Leptin Receptor (LEPR) is a component of a signaling pathway related to appetite and energy expenditure. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) of Leptin receptor gene (lepr) have been proposed as possible modulator of adipose tissue and body weight. The main phenomenological consequence reported of these SNPs is the modulation of the LEP-LEPR interaction promoting the weight gain. Particularly, Q223R polymorphism has … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2013 · 7,835 accessesView PDFCite
