Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTHE EFFECT OF AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION SERVICE ON THE TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY OF TEFF (ERAGROSTISTEF) PRODUCERS IN ETHIOPIAAsres Elias, Makoto Nohmi, Kumi Yasunobu et al.Teff (Eragrostistef) is a major staple food crop in Ethiopia, but smallholder teff production is characterized by persistently low average yield. A major government effort aimed at raising the productivity and competitiveness of smallholder agriculture in Ethiopia involved reforming and implementing agricultural extension service known as Participatory Demonstration and Training Extension System (PADETES). Therefore, this study investigates the effect of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 21 Dec 2013 · 9,522 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Improved Approach for Detecting Car in Video using Neural Network ModelS. N. Sivanandam, T. Senthil KumarThe study represents a novel approach taken towards car detection, feature extraction and classification in a video. Though many methods have been proposed to deal with individual features of a vehicle, like edge, license plate, corners, no system has been implemented to combine features. Combination of four unique features, namely, color, shape, number plate and logo gives the application a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 1 Sep 2012 · 7,151 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Novel Local Network Intrusion Detection System Based on Support Vector MachineMuamer N. Mohammad, Norrozila Sulaiman, Emad T. KhalafProblem statement: Past few years have witnessed a growing recognition of intelligent techniques for the construction of efficient and reliable Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS). Many methods and techniques were used for modeling the IDS, but some of them contribute little or not to resolve it. Approach: Intrusion detection system for local area network by using Support Vector Machines (SVM) was … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 6 Aug 2011 · 7,313 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOn Calculating the Hougaard Measure of Skewness in a Nonlinear Regression Model with Two ParametersS. A. EL-ShehawyProblem statement: This study presented an alternative computational algorithm for determining the values of the Hougaard measure of skewness as a nonlinearity measure in a Nonlinear Regression model (NLR-model) with two parameters. Approach: These values indicated a degree of a nonlinear behavior in the estimator of the parameter in a NLR-model. Results: We applied the suggested algorithm on an example … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,159 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Fault Tolerant Congestion Aware Routing Protocol for Mobile Adhoc NetworksG. Rajkumar, K. DuraiswamyProblem statement: The performance of ad hoc routing protocols will significantly degrade when there are faulty nodes in the network. Packet losses and bandwidth degradation are caused due to congestion and thus, time and energy is wasted during its recovery. The fault tolerant congestion aware routing protocol addresses these problems by exploring the network redundancy through multipath routing. Approach: In … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 23 Feb 2012 · 6,446 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesBoundary Distributions with Respect to Chebyshev's InequalityPeter Bias, Shawn Hedman, David RoseVariables whose distributions achieve the boundary value of Chebyshev’s inequality are characterized and it is found that non-constant variables with this property are symmetric discrete with at most three values. Nevertheless, the bound of Chebyshev’s inequality remains optimal for the class of continuous variables. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,633 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBayesian Estimation for Lomax Distribution: A Comparison of Loss Functions Using Jeffreys PriorsHuda Mohammed AlomariThis study investigates the estimation of the shape parameter for the Lomax distribution using complete data. We compare the performance of the classical Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method against the Bayesian framework. Within the Bayesian approach, three distinct loss functions were utilized: the linear exponential (LINEX), general entropy, and weighted general entropy loss functions. The precision of these estimators was … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2025 · 2,635 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCooling Load Prediction in the Under-Actuated Zone with Multilayer Perceptron Artificial Neural NetworkYaddarabullah, Aedah Abd Rahman, Amna SaadThis study focuses on addressing the challenge of predicting cooling loads in under-actuated zones, where the variability in occupant behavior, environmental conditions, and electronic usage creates complex dynamics. Traditional models like Support Vector Regression (SVR) and E-Lastic-Net (ELN) often struggle to capture these non-linear relationships, leading to inefficient Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) management and increased energy consumption. To … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 27 Jan 2025 · 5,300 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbsolute Measures of Interindividual Variation: A Simulation StudyJosé Moral-de la RubiaFour absolute measures and one relative measure of interindividual variability have been defined, together with their point and interval estimation (bootstrap and asymptotic), and an R script has been developed for their computation. However, further simulation studies are required to strengthen their methodological evaluation. This study focused on the three absolute measures with potentially better regularity conditions, Mean Interindividual Differences … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 4 Aug 2026 · 957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Sentiment-Aware Hybrid Ensemble Clustering Framework for Social Network Content Analysis and Community DiscoveryDhimesh Pravinbhai Parmar, Paresh TannaSocial media stages produce huge volumes of short, familiar, and sentiment-rich content that offerings significant encounter for community discovery and thematic analysis. Traditional clustering approach struggle with sparsity, noise, and limited surroundings information present in such texts. To address these limitations, this study introduces a sentiment-aware hybrid ensemble clustering framework designed openly for social network content analysis. The planned method … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 5 · 26 May 2026 · 1,271 accessesView PDFCite
