Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModified Human Development Index using Data Envelopment Analysis ApproachYasmine Refai Salama, Ramadan Hamed, Mahmoud RashwanComposite Indicator is considered themathematical aggregation which has wide usage for monitoring performances,conducting benchmarks, analyzing policies, and communicating publicly. HumanDevelopment Index (HDI) is the most popular index which measures humandevelopment through average achievement in its main dimensions: Health status,education status, and living standard but it is faced with several critiques,positive and negative. Moreover, HDI was tested to have a positive … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 26 Sep 2022 · 6,088 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimating the Claim Severity Distribution using Variable Neighborhood SearchKunjira Kingphai, Samruam ChongcharoenIn this study, Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) is utilized to estimate the parameters of actual motor insurance claims data set and compared them obtained by the Moment Estimation Methods (MOM) and Maximum likelihood Estimation Method (MLE) which are known as a conscientious method. Then, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test (K-S) is used to show how well the selected distribution fits the actual … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 12 · 19 Dec 2016 · 7,326 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFrequency Extended-MUSIC Method for DOA Estimation in Indoor IR-UWB EnvironmentHajer Meknessi, Ferid Harrabi, Ali GharsallahIn recent years, many researchers have been developed in order to ensure an accurate localization. So many techniques have been used the direction of arrival to estimate and track of IR-UWB signals. In this study, we propose a new direction of arrival estimation method for impulse radio UWB signals. This technique based on Extended-Music algorithm. The proposed method has high … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 8 Apr 2016 · 7,285 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCredibility of 3D Volume Computation Using GIS for Pit Excavation and Roadway ConstructionsRagab KhalilVolume estimation and earthworks calculation of borrow pits and roadway constructions are typical applications in civil Engineering. Although several methods for volume estimation were introduced, the average end area method still the common method used by owners and contractors. Average end area method is tedious and time consuming. Volume of terrains that do not have regular geometric structure can be … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 1 Sep 2015 · 8,269 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA VISION-BASED TRAVELLED DISTANCE ESTIMATION ALGORITHM IN AN INDOOR ENVIRONMENT USING A MOBILE ROBOTMamadou Diop, Chot Hun Lim, Tien Sze Lim, Lee-Yeng OngAutonomous navigation for a mobile robot still remains as a challenging area to be explored. In an indoor environment, while GPS is unavailable and wheel encoder suffer from error accumulation due to wheel slips, vision-based travelled distance estimation can be considered as an alternative approach for more accurate measurements. This study presents a new algorithm to estimate travelled distance of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 26 Dec 2014 · 8,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA STOCHASTIC FRONTIER APPROACH FOR MEASURING TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY OF SMALL-SCALE IMPROVED SALT PRODUCTION IN GUINEABoubacar Siddighi Balde, Hajime Kobayashi, Makoto Nohmi et al.Salt production is a major driving force behind the loss of mangrove in Guinea. As the traditional salt production causes increasing deforestation, the intensive exploitation of mangrove resources has now reached a critical threshold. Therefore, improved techniques using sunlight as the source of energy has been introduced as an alternative to the traditional salt production techniques which consumes a significant … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 14 May 2014 · 7,641 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSOFT COMPUTING APPROACH TO PREDICT INTRACRANIAL PRESSURE VALUESMario VersaciThe estimation and the prediction of the values related to the Intracranial Pression (ICP) represents an important step for the evaluation of the compliance of the human brain, above all in those cases in which the increase of the ICP values determines high risk conditions for the patient. The regular therapy is neuro-surgical but, waiting for it, it is needed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 7 Mar 2014 · 6,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA HYBRID INTELLIGENT MODEL FOR SOFTWARE COST ESTIMATIONWei Lin Du, Luiz Fernando Capretz, Ali Bou Nassif, Danny HoAccurate software development effort estimation is critical to the success of software projects. Although many techniques and algorithmic models have been developed and implemented by practitioners, accurate software development effort prediction is still a challenging endeavor in the field of software engineering, especially in handling uncertain and imprecise inputs and collinear characteristics. In this study, a hybrid intelligent model combining … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 28 Sep 2013 · 7,745 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA COMPARISON BETWEEN CLASSICAL AND ROBUST METHOD IN A FACTORIAL DESIGN IN THE PRESENCE OF OUTLIERAnwar Fitrianto, Habshah MidiAnalysis of Variance (ANOVA) techniques which is based on classical Least Squares (LS) method requires several assumptions, such as normality, constant variances and independency. Those assumptions can be violated due to several causes, such as the presence of an outlying observation. There are many evident in literatures that the LS estimate is easily affected by outliers. To remedy this problem, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2013 · 7,503 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Overview of Direction-of-Arrival Estimation using an Antenna Array with Four ElementsLotfi Osman, Imen Sfar, Ali GharsallahThe Direction-of-Arrival (DOA) estimation techniques using antenna arrays are applied in large areas of research fields and have received great attention in literature. Mobile communication, Sonar and Radar are just some examples among a large number of possible applications. For example, in military application, it is very important to recognize the direction of any threat. Another example of commercial application … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 14 Dec 2012 · 7,777 accessesView PDFCite
