Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComparison of Probit and Logistic Regression Models in the Analysis of Dichotomous OutcomesAmrutha Jose, Mariyamma Philip, Lavanya Tumkur Prasanna, M. ManjulaProbit and logistic regression models are members of the family of generalized linear models, used for estimating the functional relationship between the dichotomous dependent and independent variables. The current study is designed to find the performance of logistic and probit regression models in different conditions under multivariate normality. The objective of the study is to compare the performance of probit … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2020 · 17,036 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMCMC-Fuzzy: A Fuzzy Metric Applied to Bayesian Network Structure LearningBeatriz Wilges, Ademar Crotti Junior, Silvia Modesto NassarBayesian network structure learning is considered a complex task as the number of possible structures grows exponentially with the number of variables. Two main methods are used for Bayesian network structure learning: Conditional independence, a method in which a structure is created consistently with independence tests performed on data; and the heuristic search method that explores the structure space. Hybrid … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 8 · 24 Aug 2018 · 8,243 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFatigue Life Prediction of Screw Blade in Screw Sand Washing Machine under Random Load with Gauss DistributionJie Gong, Yun-Fei Fu, Wen Xia et al.The purpose of this study is to present a new method for estimating the fatigue life of the screw blade in the screw sand washing machine. To ensure the accuracy of numerical simulation, the loading area and the value of load are determined by means of the theoretical analysis. To ascertain the location of the stress peak and stress range, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2016 · 8,005 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnalysis of the Tunnel-Support Interaction Through a Probabilistic ApproachPierpaolo OresteThe analysis of the behavior of a tunnel requires the evaluation of numerous parameters, relative to the ground and the support structure and which are generally only known with a certain degree of approximation. The uncertainty of these parameters is reflected on the results of the calculation, that is, on the state of stress in the support structure. In order … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 3 Apr 2015 · 6,983 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsESTIMATED AND ANALYSIS OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE ENDOGENOUS AND EXOGENOUS VARIABLES USING FUZZY SEMI-PARAMETRIC SAMPLE SELECTION MODELL. MuhamadSafiih, A. A. Kamil, M. T. Abu OsmanAn important progress within the last decade in the development of the selectivity model approach to overcome the inconsistent results if the distributional assumptions of the errors terms are made this problem is through the use of semi-parametric method. However, the uncertainties and ambiguities exist in the models, particularly the relationship between the endogenous and exogenous variables. A new framework … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 15 Jul 2014 · 6,786 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNatural Radioactivity at an Uraniferous SiteClaudio de Carvalho Conti, Esau Francisco Sena Santos, Isabel Cristina Poquet SalinasThe aim of this study is to evaluate the soil composition, the radioactive isotopes concentration and the outdoor air Kerma in the region of the Uraniferous Province of Lagoa Real, Bahia State, located at northeast of Brazil. It has used data from an airborne gamma-ray survey previously carried out in the region, namely Projeto Sao Timoteo and computer simulations of … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 14 Feb 2013 · 7,456 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBuilding Opening Books for 9×9 Go Without Relying on Human Go ExpertiseKeh-Hsun Chen, Peigang ZhangProblem statement: Expert level opening knowledge is beneficial to game playing programs. Unfortunately, expert level opening knowledge is only sparsely available for 9×9 Go. We set to build expert level opening books for 9×9 Go. Approach: We present two completely different approaches to build opening books for 9×9 Go without relying on human Go expertise. The first approach is based … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 18 Aug 2012 · 6,894 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Novel Performance Metric for Building an Optimized ClassifierMohammad Hossin, Md Nasir Sulaiman, Aida Mustapha, Norwati MustaphaProblem statement: Typically, the accuracy metric is often applied for optimizing the heuristic or stochastic classification models. However, the use of accuracy metric might lead the searching process to the sub-optimal solutions due to its less discriminating values and it is also not robust to the changes of class distribution. Approach: To solve these detrimental effects, we propose a novel … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 8,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRanking of Simultaneous Equation Techniques to Small Sample Properties and Correlated Random DeviatesA. A. Adepoju, J. O. OlaomiProblem statement: All simultaneous equation estimation methods have some desirable asymptotic properties and these properties become effective in large samples. This study is relevant since samples available to researchers are mostly small in practice and are often plagued with the problem of mutual correlation between pairs of random deviates which is a violation of the assumption of mutual independence between … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,594 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptimal Bidding Strategies for Generation Companies in a Day-Ahead Electricity Market with Risk Management Taken into AccountAzmi Saleh, Takao Tsuji, Tsutomu OyamaProblem statement: In a competitive electricity market with limited number of producers, Generation Companies (Gencos) is facing an oligopoly market rather than a perfect competition. Under oligopoly market environment, each Genco may increase its own profit through a favorable bidding strategy. The objective of a Genco is to maximize its profit and minimize the associated risk. In order to achieve … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,233 accessesView PDFCite
