Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResidual Analysis for Auto-Correlated Econometric ModelHabib Ahmed ElsayirThe aim of this article is to provide residual analysis for a time series data of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the Sudan. An econometric time series model with macroeconomic variables is conducted to examine the goodness of fit using residual. Many statistical tests are used in time series models in order to make it a stationary series. After applying … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 1 Jun 2019 · 6,577 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMICROWAVE-ASSISTED EXTRACTION OF PHENOLIC ANTIOXIDANTS FROM SEMIARID PLANTSJorge E. Wong-Paz, Juan C. Contreras-Esquivel, Diana Muñiz-Marquez et al.Microwave-Assisted Extraction (MAE) kinetic in three temperatures was investigated for extraction of antioxidant phenolic compounds from Jatropha dioica, Flourensia cernua, Eucalyptus camaldulensis and Turnera diffusa which are plants of semiarid regions of Mexico. The two-site kinetic model and saturation simple equation were used to describe the experimental data. The fit of the data demonstrated that saturation simple equation was better … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 22 Mar 2014 · 7,609 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 · 6,657 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMATHEMATICAL MODELING AND EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THIN LAYER HALOGEN DRYER OF STRAWBERRY AND STUDY IT’S EFFECT ON ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITYAsaad Rehman Saeed Al-Hilphy, Ali Khudhair Jaber AlRikabiThe halogen drying characteristics of strawberry (Fragaria ananassa Duch) slices were investigated. Drying experiments were carried out a three different drying temperatures (60, 70 and 80°C). The effect of drying temperature on the drying rate, drying coefficient, efficiency, effective diffusivity of the strawberry and antioxidant activity were evaluated. The best model for describing the halogen drying process was chosen by … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 30 Sep 2013 · 7,367 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractENHANCEMENT AND COMPARISON OF ANT COLONY OPTIMIZATION FOR SOFTWARE RELIABILITY MODELSLatha Shanmugam, Lilly FlorenceIn Common parlance, the traditional software reliability estimation methods often rely on assumptions like statistical distributions that are often dubious and unrealistic. The ability to predict the number of faults during development phase and a proper testing process helps in specifying timely release of software and efficient management of project resources. In the Present Study Enhancement and Comparison of Ant … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 6 Aug 2013 · 6,561 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesigning of Child Growth Chart Based on Multi-Response Local Polynomial ModelingNur Chamidah, I. Nyoman Budiantara, Sony Sunaryo, Ismaini ZainProblem statements: Anthropometry measures used to measure physical children growth are not onlyweight but also height and head circumference. In this study we develop the estimation of multi-response localpolynomial regression and apply it to design growth chart for children up to five years old based on three responsevariables i.e., weight, height and head circumference. Approach: Based on local polynomial estimator, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2012 · 7,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOrdinal Logistic Regression Model: An Application to Pregnancy OutcomesK. A. Adeleke, A. A. AdepojuProblem statement: This research aimed at modeling a categorical response i.e., pregnancy outcome in terms of some predictors, determines the goodness of fit as well as validity of the assumptions and selecting an appropriate and more parsimonious model thereby proffered useful suggestions and recommendations. Approach: An ordinal logistic regression model was used as a tool to model the three major … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 14,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestment, Taxes and the Cost of Capital: An Euler Equation Specification TestHuntley SchallerProblem statement: Previous studies (primarily employing goodness-of-fit tests) have found it difficult to provide clear and direct evidence that taxes and the interest rate have a strong influence on investment. Approach: The objective of this study was to test whether the cost of capital, which includes taxes and the interest rate, affects investment. This study used the Euler equation for … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,616 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRainfall Depth-Duration-Frequency Relationships for South Carolina, North Carolina, and GeorgiaJ. P. Raiford, N.M. Aziz, A.A. Khan, D.N. PowellThe depth-duration-frequency curves and isopluvial maps for the region encompassing South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia were developed using the available rainfall data. The aim was to update the existing intensity-duration-frequency curves in the region and obtain these curves at ungauged sites throughout the region using the newly developed rainfall frequency analysis techniques. A total of 17 durations ranging from … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,323 accessesView PDFCite
