Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleModel for Analyzing Counts with Over-,Equi-and Under-Dispersion in Actuarial StatisticsNaushad Mamode Khan, Maleika Heenaye-Mamode KhanProblem statement: Actuarial science has grown much popularity in the recent years due to the growth of insurance companies. In practice, the data involved in actuarial science are mostly counts which may be over-,equi-or under-dispersed. Many probability distributions were proposed to model such data such as the mixed Poisson distributions. However, the estimation methodologies based on such mixed Poisson distributions … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,602 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleForecasting Peak Load Electricity Demand Using Statistics and Rule Based ApproachZ. Ismail, A. Yahya, K. A. MahpolProblem statement: Forecasting of electricity load demand is an essential activity and an important function in power system planning and development. It is a prerequisite to power system expansion planning as the world of electricity is dominated by substantial lead times between decision making and its implementation. The importance of demand forecasting needs to be emphasized at all level as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleParallel Approaches for Intervals Analysis of Variable Statistics in Large and Sparse Linear Equations with RHS RangesPeerayuth CharnsethikulThis study proposes an algorithm capable of working in parallel for solving large and sparse linear equations under given right hand side (RHS) ranges. A comparative study to the direct linear programming method is reported theoretically, computationally and discussed. Moreover, the approach can be adapted for the system under domain decompositions structure leading to a better efficiency experimentally. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,823 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Novel Method for the Non-Destructive Assessment of Strength Degradation and Re-Use Potential of Weathered Float Glass From Facades: A Proof of Concept StudyFred Veer, Mauro Overend, Irene Sofokleous, Chris NoteboomLack of knowledge about the properties of weathered (used) glass is currently a major barrier to glass reuse. This results in probably unnecessary recycling or down-cycling of architectural glass at the end of life. Avoiding this creates a significant opportunity to reduce resource depletion and decarbonize the built environment. This can be done by developing an optical non-destructive test method … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 19 Oct 2023 · 9,292 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Efficiency of Seven-Variable Box-Behnken Experimental Design with Varying Center Runs on Full and Reduced Model TypesMary Paschal Iwundu, Joan CosmosResponse Surface Methodology is widely used in the optimization of industrial processes and products that depend on several experimental variables. One of the most tested and efficient second-order Response Surface Methodology designs is the Box-Behnken Design. This research explores the efficiency of a seven-variable Box-Behnken design with varying center runs, on full and reduced quadratic models. Backward Elimination and Forward … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 8 Dec 2022 · 7,089 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUsing a Hierarchical Weibull model to Predict Failure Strength of Different Glass Edge ProfilesDavid Thomas Kinsella, Johan LindströmThe edge strength of glass is analyzed using a Weibull statistical framework based on 78 data samples from a range of experiments recorded in literature. Based on the analysis, a 45 MPa strength value (computed as the lower bound in a one-sided confidence interval at the 75% level for the 5-percentile in the distribution) could be conservatively used with arrised, … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2020 · 8,274 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPrediction Intervals for Future Observations Based on Samples of Random SizesMohammad Z. Raqab, Haroon M. BarakatOn the basis of failure times of an informative sample (X-sample) of random size M of iid continuous random variables, we consider the prediction problem of failure times of another independent future sample (Y-sample) of random size N of iid variables from the same distribution. In this paper, we derive various exact prediction intervals for future failure times from the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2018 · 7,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Geography of Sex Trafficking and Sexual Exploitation of Children in Minnesota, 2007-2015Jose Javier LopezThis article provides a snapshot of the geographic patterns of sex trafficking and sexual exploitation of minors' court cases and the affected communities in the U.S. state of Minnesota. The regional distributions of cases seen in court dealing with solicitation, inducement and promotion of prostitution, solicitation of children to engage in sexual conduct and use of a minor in a … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 21 Jul 2017 · 8,914 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLeast Absolute Deviation Regression and Least Squares for Modeling Retention Indices of Set Compounds Food and Pollutants of the EnvironmentFatiha Mebarki, Khadija Amirat, Salima Ali Mokhnach, Djellol MessadiConsidering the importance of the statistical analysis of regression in modeling based separately on study for Quantitative structure retention indices on Carbowax 20 M (ICw20M) and OV-101 columns (IOV-101) relationships (QSRR) are determined for 114 pyrazines. The detection of influential observations for the standard least squares regression model is a problem which has been extensively studied.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Probability and the Asymptotic Distribution Functions of Increasing Ordered Statistical DataA. A. El-Faheem, Eman A. MahmoudProblem statement: We considered two types of sequences of ordered statistical discrete data i1, i2…in, 1≤i1≤ i2≤… in≤n and ij = 1,2,…,n, j = 1,2,…,n. The first type is the order statistics of a sample of size n taken from the uniform discrete distribution on the set S = {1,2,…,n}, n ∈ N+. The other type is the increasing ordered … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,290 accessesView PDFCite
