Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Multicollinearity on Power Rates of the Ordinary Least Squares EstimatorsO.O. Alabi, Kayode Ayinde, T.O. OlatayoInferences on the parameter estimates of Ordinary Least Square (OLS) estimator in regression model when regressors exhibit multicollinearity is a problem in that large standard errors of the regression coefficients which cause low t-statistic value often result into the acceptance of the null hypothesis. This paper, therefore, makes efforts to investigate the effect of multicollinearity on the power rates of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,884 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Identification of a Bioflocculant-Producing Strain and Application in Rice Vinegar ClarificationWeilian Hu, Dehui DaiA bioflocculant-producing bacterium S-3# was isolated from fresh sand bones 40-50 cm underground in the desert region of China’s Ningxia Province. It was identified as Paenibacillus sp. based on 16S rDNA sequence along with its biochemical and morphological characteristics. Chemical analysis found that the bioflocculant from S-3# is mainly composed of extracellular polysaccharide. Researchers observed no noticeable change (above 91%) … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 30 Dec 2020 · 5,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParasitic Loads and Growth Performance of Goats and Kids under Sequential and Mixed Species Grazing with Cattle at a Constant Stocking RateRenita Woods Marshall, Sebhatu Gebrelul, Shonta Manuel et al.The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of sequential and mixed species grazing on parasitic loads and growth performance of goat kids. The study was conducted between June and October, 2013. Forty eight (48) "Spanish" kids and 28 Brangus calves were randomly divided into four treatment groups; goats grazing alone (GOA, control), Goats Followed by Cattle (GFC), … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 8 Jun 2015 · 7,544 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEDGE PRESERVED IMAGE COMPRESSION USING EXTENDED SHEARLET TRANSFORMS. Thayammal, D. SelvathiThe motivation of the proposed compression method is to reduce the bit rate for image transmission or memory requirement for image storage while maintaining image quality. The edges are one of the prominent features in an image and they are essential for maintaining image quality. JPEG compression standards like JPEG98 and JPEG2000 produce visual artifacts in reconstructed image at low … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 15 Sep 2014 · 7,046 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFINGER KNUCKLE-PRINT IDENTIFICATION BASED ON LOCAL AND GLOBAL FEATURE EXTRACTION USING SDOSTN. B. Mahesh Kumar, K. PremalathaFinger knuckle-print biometric system has widely used in modern e-world. The region of interest is needed as the key for the feature extraction in a good biometric system. The symmetric discrete orthonormal stockwell transform provides the computational efficiency and multi-scale information of wavelet transforms, while providing texture features in terms of Fourier frequencies. It outperforms leading wavelet-based texture analysis methods. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 3 Apr 2014 · 6,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVideo Coding Technique Using 3D Dualtree Discrete Wavelet Transform with Multi Objective Particle Swarm Optimization ApproachesThamarai Muthusamy, Shanmugalakshmi RamachandranWavelet-based image compression with Wavelet transform based motion compensated video codec performs better compression to meet the rate and distortion constraints in video transmission with the available bandwidth than the block based techniques. However, it is well known that the 2D DWT does not represent directional features of images efficiently. Lots of efforts have been contributed to multiscale directional representation. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 20 Feb 2013 · 6,595 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting Gold Prices Using Multiple Linear Regression MethodZ. Ismail, A. Yahya, A. ShabriProblem statement: Forecasting is a function in management to assist decision making. It is also described as the process of estimation in unknown future situations. In a more general term it is commonly known as prediction which refers to estimation of time series or longitudinal type data. Gold is a precious yellow commodity once used as money. It was made … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 11,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Model for Bioaccumulation of Metals in Crassostrea virginica from Apalachicola Bay, FloridaDennis A. Apeti, Elijah Johnson, Larry RobinsonKinetics of bioaccumulation of the trace metals (Cd and Zn) by C. virginica were investigated in this study. A computer program, Oyster Bioaccumulation Model (OBM), was developed to simulate the accumulation of the metals from both dissolved (water column) and particulate (food) phases by C. virginica. The model is based on two main attributes: (1) the oyster biological characteristics such … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,478 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn HIV/AIDS Model with Variable Force of Infection and its Application to the Epidemic in UgandaFlugentius Baryarama, Joseph Y.T. Mugisha, Livingstone S. LuboobiAn HIV/AIDS model is formulated with variable force of infection for the adult population. Its actions are reduced to a prevalence equation that is a non-logistic equation whose explicit solution is derived. The implications of applying the solution to the evolution of the HIV/AIDS epidemic are discussed with respect to the positive boundedness of the coefficients. Prevalence projections are presented … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,969 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCyclic Instability of Shape-Memory Alloys in Seismic Isolation SystemsFilipe Amarante dos Santos, Corneliu Cismasiu, Francisco Braz FernandesShape-memory alloys are being progressively introduced as kernel components in seismic retrofitting devices for civil engineering structures. In order to control the instability associated with the first mechanical cycles, a training procedure is usually implemented, which stabilizes the superelastic behavior of the alloy. This paper addresses the characterization of the cyclic behavior of an austenitic NiTi alloy with emphasis on … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2018 · 6,856 accessesView PDFCite
