Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Inverse Weibull Distribution: Properties and ApplicationsMona Mustafa Elbiely, Haitham M. YousofIn this work, we introduce a new flexible extension of the Inverse Weibull distribution. Some important mathematical properties of the proposed model are derived along with a numerical analysis of mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis measures of the proposed model. The performance of the maximum likelihood method is assesses via a comprehensive simulation studies in terms of mean squared errors. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2019 · 7,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuantile Regression Estimation Using Non-Crossing ConstraintsIlaria Lucrezia AmeriseIn this article we are concerned with a collection of multiple linear regressions that enable the researcher to gain an impression of the entire conditional distribution of a response variable given a set of explanatory variables. More specifically, we investigate the advantage of using a new method to estimate a bunch of non-crossing quantile regressions hyperplanes. The main tool is … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 15 May 2018 · 7,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Families of Distributions for Modeling Bivariate Data, with ApplicationsHaroon Barakat, Osama Mohareb Khaled, Nourhan KhalilIn this study we introduce a new method of adding two shape parameters to any baseline bivariate distribution function (df) to get a more flexible family of bivariate df's. Through the additional parameters we can fully control the type of the resulting family. This method is applied to yield a new two-parameter extension of the bivariate standard normal distribution, denoted … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2018 · 7,914 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation Analysis and Modeling of EEG – EMG Signal for Startle-Induced SeizuresB. Pushpa, D. Najumnissa, Dinesh NayakIn this study an EEG and EMG signal is analyzed for startle type epilepsy. Future, ten subject were involved in this study, for hearing a sound or sudden touch on a particular area of the body especially the right side leg, initially induces a jerk which leads to subsequent tonic contraction. The modeling technique and Correlation technique have analyzed for … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 26 Dec 2017 · 7,843 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHand Anthropometric Data for Saudi Arabia Engineering Students of Aged 20-26 Years at King Khalid UniversityMohamed A.A. MansourAnthropometric data plays a significant role in the effective and accurate design of various devices and machines. The inclusion of anthropometric data helps ensure that devices or machines are safe, user-friendly and highly productive and efficient. In this study, 56 hand dimensions based on 266 Saudi Arabian inter-university adult males aged 20-26 years are described in terms of statistics, bivariate … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 27 Sep 2016 · 8,691 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA NEW FAMILY OF GENERALIZED GAMMA DISTRIBUTION AND ITS APPLICATIONSatsayamon Suksaengrakcharoen, Winai BodhisuwanThe mixture distribution is defined as one of the most important ways to obtain new probability distributions in applied probability and several research areas. According to the previous reason, we have been looking for more flexible alternative to the lifetime data. Therefore, we introduced a new mixed distribution, namely the Mixture Generalized Gamma (MGG) distribution, which is obtained by mixing … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 9 Apr 2014 · 7,930 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBed-Load Sediment Profile and Effect of River Bank Erosion on River Cross-SectionMohd Ekhwan Toriman, Frankie Marcus Ata, Mohd Khairul Amri Kamarudin, Mushrifah IdrisThe processes of lateral and riverbank erosion are among the elements of river morphology dynamic resulting from natural processes and human activities. This process has been studied in detail throughout the research for four months starting from 7 October 2009 to 26 January 2010. In this research, technique of erosion pins were applied at five plots selected along the Chini … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,337 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariability of Hydraulic Conductivity Due to Multiple FactorsSanjit K. Deb, Manoj K. ShuklaSoil properties are greatly influenced by intrinsic factors of soil formation as well as extrinsic factors associated with land use and management and vary both in time and space. Intrinsic variability is caused by the pedogenesis and usually takes place at large time scales. The variability caused by extrinsic factors could take effect relatively quickly and could not be treated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 13 Aug 2012 · 10,219 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeural Network Change Detection Model for Satellite Images Using Textural and Spectral CharacteristicsA. K. Helmy, Gh. S. El-TaweelProblem statement: Change detection is the process of identifying difference of the state of an object or phenomena by observing it at different time. Essentially, it involves the ability to quantify temporal effects using multi-temporal data sets. Information about change is necessary for evaluating land cover and the management of natural resources. Approach: A neural network model based on both … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 4 Nov 2010 · 8,156 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Monte Carlo Study of Seven Homogeneity of Variance TestsHoward B. Lee, Gary S. Katz, Alberto F. RestoriProblem statement: The decision by SPSS (now PASW) to use the unmodified Levene test to test homogeneity of variance was questioned. It was compared to six other tests. In total, seven homogeneity of variance tests used in Analysis Of Variance (ANOVA) were compared on robustness and power using Monte Carlo studies. The homogeneity of variance tests were (1) Levene, (2) … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,103 accessesView PDFCite
