Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOverview on Key Distribution Primitives in Wireless Sensor NetworkM. Raghini, N. Uma Maheswari, R. VenkateshOwing to the security requirements of wireless sensor network, the background of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is to be analyzed with different threats and attack models. Physical compromising of sensor nodes by an adversary is an emerging problem in sensor network and accordingly, it is necessary to provide an environment with efficient key management techniques due to resource constraints on … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 17 May 2013 · 6,177 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIs Cancer Recurrence Postponed By a Treatment? A New Model AnswersRamalingam ShanmugamDuring a treatment period of a cancer patient, the medical team ponders over a question: Is patient’s cancer recurrence significantly postponed by the medication, even if the illness is not completely cured? This question could be answered with data evidence if the data are analyzed with an appropriate model and a suitable methodology. A scanning of the literature reveals that … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2013 · 6,887 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConfidence Intervals for Signal to Noise Ratio of a Poisson DistributionFlorence George, B.M. Golam KibriaThe Poisson distribution is one of the most useful probability distributions to fit rare event data. Confidence interval for the SNR is an important issue among the researchers in image processing. This study considers several confidence intervals for the SNR of a Poisson distribution. Different confidence intervals available in literature are reviewed and compared based on the coverage probability and … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 19 Sep 2012 · 13,909 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of the Trim and Fill Method in Adjusting for the Publication Bias in Meta-Analysis of Continuous DataNik Ruzni Nik IdrisPublication bias in meta-analysis is a serious issue as it may lead to biased estimates which appear to be precise. A popular method for detecting and adjusting the publication bias is the trim and fill method. This study uses simulated meta-analysis to quantify the effects of publication bias on the overall meta-analysis estimates of continuous data where the absolute mean … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 8 Aug 2012 · 9,435 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the Stability of Underground Rock Pillars through a Probabilistic ApproachMassimo Guarascio, Pierpaolo OresteProblem statement: When the room and pillar mining method is adopted, the dimensioning of the rock pillars is one of the most important aspects that need to be faced from the engineering point of view. The available calculation methods are usually simplified and involve the areas of influence method for the evaluation of the mean axial stress induced in the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 30 Jun 2012 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of Improved Directed Diffusion Protocol for Sensor Networks under Different Mobility ModelsK. E. Kannammal, T. PurusothamanProblem statement: In sensor networks, some routing protocols performance differs under different mobility models. In ns2, there are two kinds of directed diffusion protocols, rate based gradient mechanism (diffusion/rate) and probability based gradient mechanism (diffusion/prob). In this research, we proposed a method to improve the performance of Directed diffusion/prob protocol by adding a new interest message propagation mechanism and analyzed … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 25 Feb 2012 · 6,749 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSymbol Timing Estimation in Multiband Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing based Ultrawide band SystemM. N. Suresh, S. J. Thiruvengadam, V. AbhaikumarProblem statement: The Multiband Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MB-OFDM) Based Ultra Wideband system (UWB) is highly susceptible to symbol timing error. Symbol timing estimation in MB-OFDM based UWB is difficult due to the presence of strongest path at delayed instant. Approach: Symbol timing estimation has two steps namely a coarse estimation and a fine estimation. In this study, a maximum … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 10 Feb 2012 · 7,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating some Reliability Analysis Methodologies in Seismic DesignA. El Ghoulbzouri, A. Khamlichi, F. Lopez Almansa et al.Problem statement: Accounting for uncertainties that were present in geometric and material data of reinforced concrete buildings was performed in this study within the context of performance based seismic engineering design. Approach: Reliability of the expected performance state is assessed by using various methodologies based on finite element nonlinear static pushover analysis and specialized reliability software package. Reliability approaches that … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,843 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWhat Else do Epileptic Data RevealRamalingam ShanmugamProblem statement: Aggregating and analyzing data of all patients using statistical methodologies as often done in macro sense would be not useful when physician’s professional interest was only to provide the best medical care to the patient. For this purpose, individual data of the involved patient should be analyzed and modeled in a micro sense for the physician to notice … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2011 · 7,302 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWeight of Evidence Allocates Mineral Depositional ZonesAbdullah A. Bokhari, Guang Dao HU, Rani FouadProblem statement: Yunnan province in general and Pulang area in particular is geological rich area which prevents field study in multi locations due to high risk outcrop. Approach: New technology such as Geographic Information System (GIS) and an ArcView extension module Arcweight of evidence (WofE) became very handy to provide safety for researchers and allow organization to control their budget. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 6,981 accessesView PDFCite
