Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBayesian Changepoint Analysis of the Extreme Rainfall EventsWan Zawiah Wan Zin, Abdul Aziz Jemain, Kamarulzaman IbrahimProblem statement: This study assesses recent changes in extremes of annual rainfall in Peninsular Malaysia based on daily rainfall data for 50 rain-gauged stations over the period 1975-2004. Approach: Eight indices that represent the extreme events are defined and analyzed, which are extreme Dry Spell (XDS), extreme Rain-Sum (XRS), extreme wet-day intensities at 95% and 99% percentiles (I95 and I99), … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2012 · 7,250 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Symbolic Threshold: A Dynamic form of the Mind as an Expression of Radiant ThinkingFelice Corona, Francesco Perrotta, Emilia Tartaglia Polcini, Carla CozzarelliProblem statement: The definition of "symbolic species" used by Terrence W. Deacon means more complete the process of monitoring the encounter between semiotics and cognitive sciences neurosemiotics better defined. Approach: The mechanism of the symbolic threshold means that it is put in place an approach to reality no longer seen as a representative of simple association, but under a restructuring … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 16,057 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHand Gesture Recognition for Human-Computer InteractionS. Mohamed Mansoor Roomi, R. Jyothi Priya, H. JayalakshmiProblem statement: With the development of ubiquitous computing, current user interaction approaches with keyboard, mouse and pen are not sufficient. Due to the limitation of these devices the useable command set is also limited. Direct use of hands can be used as an input device for providing natural interaction. Approach: In this study, Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) was used to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,311 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTwo-Step Robust Diagnostic Method for Identification of Multiple High Leverage PointsArezoo Bagheri, Habshah Midi, A.H.M. Rahmatullah ImonProblem statement: High leverage points are extreme outliers in the X-direction. In regression analysis, the detection of these leverage points becomes important due to their arbitrary large effects on the estimations as well as multicollinearity problems. Mahalanobis Distance (MD) has been used as a diagnostic tool for identification of outliers in multivariate analysis where it finds the distance between normal … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,306 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbout Supersonic Flight and Mach 3 FlyingRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuAerospace-BAC Concorde was a supersonic passenger aircraft. It was the result of a government treaty between the French and British governments, combining the efforts of Aerospace and British Aircraft Corporation. With only 20 aircraft built in total, the cost of the development phase was a major economic failure. In addition, Air France and British Airways were subsidized by the government … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2020 · 8,926 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMapping, Characterization and Dispersion of Metallic Pollutants within a Catchment of Illegal Gold Mining Activities in GhanaWiafe Samuel, Richard Buamah, Helen Essandoh, Lawrence DarkwahThe illegal gold mining activities prevalent in most part of Ghana have caused substantial havoc to the environment especially water bodies which serve as sources of water for domestic, industrial and agricultural purposes. The Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) recently shut down their water treatment plant due to the extreme pollution and high cost of treatment. This study focusses on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2018 · 8,176 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractENERGY PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT, FLOW BEHAVIOR AND HEAT TRANSFER INVESTIGATION IN A CIRCULAR TUBE WITH V-DOWNSTREAM DISCRETE BAFFLESWithada Jedsadaratanachai, Amnart BoonloiA mathematical study has been carried out to examine periodic laminar flow and heat transfer characteristics in a three-dimensional isothermal wall circular tube with 45° in-line V-discrete baffles. The computations are based on the Finite Volume Method (FVM) and the SIMPLE algorithm has been implemented. The fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics are presented for Reynolds numbers based on the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 23 Nov 2013 · 6,376 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractObject Identity, Apparent Motion, Transformation GeometryFelice L. Bedford, Birgitta E. ManssonProblem statement: A classic question in cognition was addressed on how two glimpses separated in time are determined to refer either to the same object or to two different objects, without which coherent perception of the world is not possible. Approach: A general solution was offered in which observers exploit an entire family of geometries. It was argued that a … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,618 accessesView PDFCite
