Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe Random Walk Hypothesis for the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange: January 1998-November 2006Tafirenyika Sunde, James ZivanomoyoThe main intention of this study was to investigate, using monthly data, whether prices in the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange (ZSE) follow a random-walk process as required for there to be market efficiency. The study applied the unit root tests to establish if the ZSE followed a random walk or not. If the ZSE follows a random walk it is said … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,090 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOptimization of Barbell Trajectory During The Snatch Lift Technique By Using Optimal Control TheoryShahram Lenjan Nejadian, Mostafa Rostami, Farzad TowhidkhahMathematical modeling and optimizing of snatch lift technique based on dynamic synthesis, is the aim of this study. The barbell trajectory is proposed as the performance index, evaluated experimentally by several researchers who have introduced some optimum trajectories according to the percentage of their owners' successes. Since none of the mechanical parameters were considered into the optimum trajectories, we develop … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 7,721 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOn the Probability Density Function of the Test Statistic for One Nonlinear GLR Detector Arising from fMRIFangyuan NanRecently an important and interesting nonlinear generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) detector emerged in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data processing. However, the study of that detector is incomplete: the probability density function (pdf) of the test statistic was draw from numerical simulations without much theoretical support and is therefore, not firmly grounded. This correspondence presents more accurate (asymptotic) closed form … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordForecasting Foreign Direct Investment Inflow in Jordan: Univariate ARIMA ModelAl-Abdulrazag Bashier, Bataineh TalalThe present study is an attempt to build a Univariate time series model to forecast the FDI inflows into Jordan over the coming period 2004-2025. The study employs Box-Jenkins methodology of building ARIMA (Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average) model to achieve the goals of the study. An annual sample time series data for the FDI in Jordan was utilized over the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,389 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordInterleukin 10 Induces the Maturation of Putative Tolerogenic Monocyte-derived Dendritic Cells as Revealed by GeneArray AnalysisMarianne A. Jakobsen, Bjarne K. MØller, Klaus Rieneck et al.IL-10 is a multifunctional cytokine with known inhibitory effect on DC maturation. In the present study, we show that the presence of IL-10 during the first 6 days of maturation of Mo-DC has severe effects on the phenotype with IL-10 treated Mo-DC retaining a high expression of factors involved in antigen uptake and having low expression of costimulatory factors and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,626 accessesView PDFCite
HypothesisOpen accessAll words, across the recordAnalysis of Market Orientation on Business Performance in the Multinational Service IndustriesMartin Owusu Ansah, Richard ChinomonaThe paper examined the extent of market orientation on business performance in the multinational service industries in Ghana. It applied the behavioral viewpoint of market orientation measurement using MKTOR scale as a base in eliciting information from eleven marketing managers through in - depth interview while one hundred and sixty-three marketing managers were also surveyed using structured questionnaires.

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEvaluation of Mast Cell Distribution in Oral Lichen Planus and Lichenoid Lesions by Immunohistochemical and Histochemical AnalysisMahi Balci, Mustafa Emre ErcinThe histopathological assessment of Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) and oral lichenoid lesions is relatively subjective. The distinguishing criteria established by WHO effectively reproducible when all selection criteria were fulfilling but sometimes fail to provide a reliable diagnosis. The aim of the present study was to evaluate mast cell counts and their distribution among OLP and lichenoid lesions. The density and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 11 Dec 2016 · 7,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAn Empirical Analysis of Supply Response of Rubber in MalaysiaGhulam Mustafa, Ismail Abd Latif, Henry EgwumaSupply response of rubber to changes in economic incentives is analysed using co-integration approach. Time series data is taken for the period 1990 to 2014 and the vector error correction model framework has been applied. The empirical results confirmed the existence of a unique long-run equilibrium relationship among planted acreage, the relative price of rubber and price of fertilizer. Further, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 25 Nov 2016 · 7,495 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordApplication of a Multi Stage Method to Assess the Landscape Alteration Induced by Quarrying Sites: A Comparative AnalysisDario Lippiello, Guido Alfaro Degan, Marco De Agostini, Mario PinzariThe aim of this study is to provide a design tool to forecast the effects that extraction methods and reclamation plans will generate on the land surrounding quarry sites. The method is based on a graphical approach and it consists of three consecutive phases. The first phase focuses on the quarry plant and aims to quantify the extent of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 5 · 2 Sep 2016 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Comparative Analysis on the Performance of the Convoluted Exponential Distribution and the Exponential Distribution in Terms of FlexibilityEnahoro Alfred Owoloko, Pelumi Emmanuel Oguntunde, Adebowale Olusola AdejumoIn this article, the convoluted exponential distribution which was derived as the sum of two independent exponentially distributed random variables was compared with the exponential distribution in terms of flexibility when applied to four real data sets. The idea is to verify if the convoluted exponential distribution would perform better than the exponential distribution in modeling real life situations. Some … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 15 Apr 2016 · 6,986 accessesView PDFCite
