Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatistical Modeling of Temperature Extremes Behaviour in GhanaTwumasi-Ankrah Sampson, Nyantakyi Agyei KwadwoThis paper focuses on modeling the extreme maximum temperature in Ghana using the extreme value theory. This is to inform decision-makers to help them plan appropriate risk mitigating measures to reduce the damage caused by drought. The block maxima with Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) and the General Pareto (GP) (with “all excesses” and decluster peaks) were used on 113 years … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 10 Jan 2019 · 7,117 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Static Analysis of Android Source Code for Lifecycle Development Usage PatternsNoura Hoshieah, Samer Zein, Norsaremah Salleh, John GrundyBuilding robust Android apps is a non-trivial task that requires skilled developers to understand various Android platform peculiarities. However, among the Android developers community, a large fractions are considered to be novice and inexperienced developers. One of the main peculiarities in the Android app development is the activity lifecycle model. A developer needs to have deep understanding of the different … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 10 Jan 2019 · 8,661 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Classical Design Approach of Cascaded Controllers for a Traction ElevatorUko Victor Sorochi, Kamalu Ugochukwu Anamelechi, Nwokocha Doris Adaugo, Uko Ebenezer UgochukwuA traction elevator is a control system that can be driven by Direct Current (DC) motors. Premised on the reviewed literature, operations of control systems incorporated with DC motors are restrained by nonlinearities that deviate the controlled variables (position, speed, and torque) from the reference input. Controllers designed with appropriate gains annul the nonlinearities inhibiting the operation of a traction … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 16 Aug 2023 · 6,024 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Extended Semi-Parametric Accelerated Failure Time Cure Model for Partial Cure Information KnownYu Wu, Yong Lin, Shou-En Lu et al.Cure model is a useful model for analyzing failure time data when there is evidence of long-term survivors. In traditional cure models, it is assumed that the cured or uncured status in the censored set cannot be distinguished. However, in many occasions, data of some diagnostic procedures, with some sensitivity and specificity, may have provided partial information about the cured … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 11 Dec 2018 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactors Associated with Irrational Use of Antibiotics. A Cross-Sectional Study in the City of Marrakech MoroccoNaima Aoutil, Mohamed Cherkaoui, Mohamed BouskraouiOveruse and inappropriate use of antibioticsleads to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This resistance leadsto longer hospital stays, higher medical costs, and increased mortality. Therefore,its control must be a priority as it poses a threat to all nations, regardlessof their territory and economic status.In Marrakech too, antibioticresistance is a real public health problem, limiting treatment options. Thepopulation plays a crucial … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2025 · 4,539 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Utilization of Mirroring Servers Using Artificial Neural NetworksRadwan Al-Shalalfa, Hazzaa Alshareef, Azzam Sleit et al.Due to the fact that an enormous amount of data is available to any user on the Internet, this leads to increased requests of Internet users to download or process their data among different servers. In fact, the need for increasing the reliability and performance of such servers has become an importance subject to tackle. Replicating servers is a way … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 2 Feb 2022 · 6,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLevel of Non-Matching Primary Transplant Cases According to Repeat Transplants Cases and a New Bivariate Poisson DistributionRamalingam ShanmugamIn their practice, healthcare administrators and professionals often wonder about the non-matching level organs in transplants for the sake of future forecasting. Currently, there is no appropriate methodology to analyze the pertinent transplant data and describe the patterns. The lack of a suitable methodology in the literature originates from an incorrect impression that the primary transplant cases and the repeat … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 10 Jul 2017 · 9,151 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Conceptual Model for Risk Allocation in the Construction IndustryChipozya Kosta Tembo-Silungwe, Nthatisi KhatleliAppropriate risk allocation influences positive project delivery on construction projects while inappropriate allocation results in disputes, quality shortfalls, time and cost overruns. The existing body of knowledge provides guides on how risks should be allocated between the contracting parties. Nevertheless, the full appreciation of risks allocation is rarely given as risk allocation is more than just which party should bear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 26 Jun 2017 · 8,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Microfinance on the Efficiency of Maize Producers in NigeriaMuhammad Auwal Ahmed, Zainalabidin Mohamed, Abdullahi Iliyasu, Golnaz RezaiThe study applies descriptive analysis, Slacks-Based Measure (SBM) of efficiency model and fractional regression model to data collected in 2016 using cross-sectional survey of maize producers in Nigeria. The purpose was to determine the impact of microfinance on the technical efficiency of maize producers and evaluates factors that influence inefficiency among credit beneficiaries and non-credit beneficiaries. Results show that the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 30 May 2017 · 7,666 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Evaluation of Channel Propagation Models and Developed Model for Mobile CommunicationYahia ZakariaPropagation models represent a solidifying of mathematical equations and algorithms that are used for radio signal propagation prediction in specific regions. In this research different propagation models are analyzed and compared. These propagation models have been proposed at the operating frequency of 3.8 GHz for different transmitter antenna heights in all types of terrain. These propagation models depend on location, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2017 · 8,409 accessesView PDFCite
