Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of the Cenozoic Erosion Amount Using Monte Carlo Type-Petroleum Systems Modeling of the Hammerfest Basin, Western Barents SeaKrzysztof Jan Zieba, Matthias Daszinnies, Benjamin Emmel et al.The Cenozoic uplift and erosion is often believed to be a major risk factor in hydrocarbon exploration in the Barents Sea causing petroleum redistribution and leakage from filled traps. Therefore, the estimation of erosion amount is an important but often underrepresented task in the basin modeling procedure. The assessment of erosion magnitudes and spatial distribution by geochemical and thermo chronological … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2015 · 8,318 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiagnosis of Cardiovascular Diseases with Bayesian ClassifiersAlaa Elsayad, Mahmoud FakhrCardiovascular disease or atherosclerosis is any disease affecting the cardiovascular system. They include coronary heart disease, raised blood pressure, cerebrovascular disease, peripheral artery disease, rheumatic heart disease, congenital heart disease and heart failure. They are treated by cardiologists, thoracic surgeons, vascular surgeons, neurologists and interventional radiologists. The diagnosis is an important yet complicated task that needs to be done accurately … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 25 Mar 2015 · 7,498 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParameter Estimation and Determination of Sample Size in Logistic RegressionAdeleke Kazeem Adedayo, Dawud Adebayo AgunbiadeThe determination of Sample-Size is often an important step in planning a statistical study and it is usually a difficult task. Among the important hurdles to be surpassed, one must obtain an estimate of one or more error variances and specify an effective sample size of importance. The study was carried out to check for the estimation of parameter and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 4 Feb 2013 · 6,915 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 abstractTruncated Estimate in Log-Binomial Model: Algorithm and SimulationLuyan Dai, Yang Li, Ye ShenProblem statement: Relative risk has concrete meanings of comparing two groups and measuring the association between exposures and outcomes in medical and public health studies. Log-binomial model, using a log link function on binary outcomes, is straightforward to estimate risk ratios, whereas generates boundary problems. When the estimates are located near the boundary of constrained parameter space, common approaches or … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 7 May 2012 · 8,291 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMinority Serving College and University Cost EfficienciesG. Thomas SavProblem statement: Higher education minority enrollment growth has far outstripped white non-minority growth in the United States. Minority serving colleges and universities have disproportionately attended to that growth and will continue to play a critical role in providing minority educational opportunities in a knowledge based and globally diverse economy. However, they will face new and challenging budgetary and managerial reforms … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 21 Jan 2012 · 7,843 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParameter Estimation for the Double Pareto DistributionFaris M. Al-AthariProblem statement: The double Pareto distribution appeared most often as model for variety of fields, including archaeology, biology, economics, environmental science, finance and physics. The distribution exhibits Paretian power-law behavior in both tails. The family of double Pareto distributions has recently been proposed for modeling growth rates such as annual gross domestic product, stock prices, foreign currency exchange rates and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2011 · 8,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpecification of Dynamic Time Series Model with Volatile-Outlier Input SeriesT. A. Lasisi, D.K. Shangodoyin, O. O. Sangodoyin et al.Problem statement: This study considers the precision of the output series generated from aberrant input series in the context of the distribution of the dynamic estimate and also investigate relative merit of analyzing residuals with outliers for a volatility input dynamic model. Approach: The study developed a methodology for checking volatility at every time point and evaluates the influence of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 1 Oct 2011 · 7,102 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Statistical Comparative Study of the Working Poor in Japan and CanadaMasatoshi MurakamiProblem statement: Recently in Japan, there has been an increase in the group which is termed the ‘Working Poor’. However, the group’s size and configuration remains unknown. Approach: The purpose of this study is to compare the working poor in Canada and Japan using microdata. First, the definition and method of estimation of the working poor provided by (Iwai and … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 9 Apr 2011 · 6,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeismic Performance Evaluation of Reinforced Concrete Moment Resisting Frames with Various Ductility in Low Seismic ZoneN. Choopool, V. BoonyapinyoProblem statement: Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, is at moderate risk for distant earthquake due to the ability of soft soil to amplify ground motion about 3-4 times although it locates in low seismic zone. In addition, before the enforcement of seismic loading for buildings in the Ministerial Law in 2007, many existing reinforced concrete buildings in Bangkok may have … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 27 Jan 2011 · 9,493 accessesView PDFCite
