Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Measure of Monotonicity of two Random VariablesFarida Kachapova, Ilias KachapovProblem statement: When analyzing random variables it was useful to measure the degree of their monotone dependence or compare pairs of random variables with respect to their monotonicity. Existing coefficients measure general or linear dependence of random variables. Developing a measure of monotonicity was useful for practical applications as well as for general theory, since monotonicity was an important type … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 26 May 2012 · 8,692 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSome Effects of Alternative Foreign Currency Translation Methodologies on two Short-Term Liquidity RatiosPaul E. HoltThis study focused on two short-term liquidity ratios, the current ratio and inventory turnover and attempted to identify, in terms of empirical properties, if and in what ways foreign currency translation methodologies generate different results. Fifty companies’ accounts were translated from U.S. dollars to U.K. pounds. Post-translation Spearman rank correlation coefficients were extremely high for all methodology pairs, but t … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 8 Mar 2012 · 7,484 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentifying the Factors Affecting the Participation of Agricultural Cooperatives' MembersBagher ArayeshProblem statement: 40-year history of agricultural production cooperatives in the country shows that this type of exploitation system has faced many ups and downs during this period. First, despite the help and support by the government, the cooperative sector has not been able to play a major role in the development of the country and its share has not exceeded … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2011 · 8,934 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating the Relationship between Organizational Social Capital and Service Quality in Teaching HospitalsFereshteh Farzianpour, Abass Rahimi Fouroshani, Reza Gholi Vahidi et al.Problem statement: In modern age, the service quality and sensitivity towards better qualified service are among the priorities of the global community. Quality is defined as the customer’s desire and the customer’s perceptions and expectations constitute the key factor determining quality. The issue of quality is particularly important in healthcare service. Nowadays, alongside the human, financial and economic capitals, a … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 12 Jul 2011 · 7,672 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Genetic Correlations on Sweet Corn Inbred Lines Using SAS Mixed ModelPedram Kashiani, Ghizan SalehProblem statement: Genetic correlations among traits refer to the extent of relatedness among them due to genetic causes. Estimating genetic correlations for quantitative traits is tedious if done manually. Approach: However, the use of the computer software SAS, applying mixed-model analysis of variance has facilitated many recent studies in evolutionary quantitative genetics. Results: In this two-way statistical model, the variance … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 10,891 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatistical Models for Hardened Properties of Self-Compacting ConcreteArabi N.S. Al Qadi, Kamal Nasharuddin Bin Mustapha, Hashem Al-Mattarneh, Qahir N.S. AL-KadiProblem statement: For predicting workability and hardened properties of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) no well known explicit formulation. Approach: Statistical models were carried out to model the influence of key mixture parameter (cement, water to powder ratio, fly ash and super plasticizer) on hardened properties affecting the performance of SCC. Such responses included compressive strength at 3, 7 and 28 days … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,140 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Market Orientation on Business Performance of the Companies Designing and Manufacturing Clean RoomsAmirhossein Amirkhani, Rasool Sanavi FardProblem statement: Theatrically claimed that there is relationship between market orientation and improvement of business performance of the companies, but the regular empirical research is carried out to understand deeply and prove these claims especially in Iranian environment. Considering the importance of market orientation, as well as lack of information on its effects, this study considered its effect on the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,578 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeural Networks Based Time-Delay Estimation using DCT CoefficientsSamir J. Shaltaf, Ahmad A. MohammadThis study dealt with the problem of estimating constant time delay embedded into a received signal that was noisy, delayed and damped image of a known reference signal. The received signal was filtered, normalized with respect to the peak value it achieved and then transformed by the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) into DCT coefficients. Those DCT coefficients that were most … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,479 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Weighted Rank CorrelationTahani A. Maturi, Ezz H. AbdelfattahProblem Statement: There have been many cases in real life where two independent sources have ranked n objects, with the interest focused on agreement in the top rankings. Spearman's rho and Kendall's tau coefficients assigned equal weights to all rankings. As a result, the literature proposed several weighted correlation coefficients with emphasis on the top rankings, including the top-down, weighted … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,826 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEdge Defection Prediction by Using Wavelet CompressionYas A.K. AlsultannyDigital image have been expanding in usage. The importance of image compression algorithms have been increased, to produce smaller file size with a lower computational requirement. The wavelet transform offers a natural decomposition of images at multiple resolutions, since the wavelet transform can decompose images into various multiresolution subbands, where the correlation exists. A novel technique for image compression by … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,287 accessesView PDFCite
