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 abstractFuzzy Logic Decision Support System for Hypovigilance Detection based on CNN Feature Extractor and WN ClassifierInes Teyeb, Ahmed Snoun, Olfa Jemai, Mourad ZaiedFatigue and drowsiness are among the main causes of traffic accidents, just behind excessive speed and alcoholism. This paper deals with the problem of road safety. It attempts to present a driver vigilance monitoring system based on a video approach. This work aims at creating an assistive driving application employing eyes closure duration and head posture estimation as performant signs … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 11 · 22 Nov 2018 · 7,565 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecent Progress in Self-Cleaning Materials with Different Suitable ApplicationsSiavash Hosseinpour Chermahini, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Saeid Eslamian, Vijay P. SinghSelf-cleaning properties have received significant attention for the importance of their potential. Coatings at Nano-scales offer possibilities of using materials for self-cleaning surfaces. Recent efforts have begun to focus on the kinds of materials including metals, semiconductors and polymers. Such materials can have enormous potential in only a few applications. Moreover, the production of these materials requires high costs with … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 25 Apr 2018 · 9,132 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEpidemiology and Economic Impact Assessment of Caprine Brucellosis in Penang State, Malaysia: A Retrospective AnalysisMuhammad Azri Ahmad Zaki, Abdinasir Yusuf Osman, Muhammad Luqman Nordin et al.Brucella melitensis is a zoonotic pathogen affecting a wide range of hosts with economic significance in the animal industry worldwide. The disease is characterized by abortion, still birth, reduced milk production, weak foetus and infertility mainly in small ruminant populations. There is a wide distribution of the disease among domesticated species and the trends of the disease in goats have … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2018 · 8,191 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 abstractInvestigating the Efficacy of a Bio-Based Modifier to Improve the Rheological Properties of Recycled Asphalt ShinglesMohammed Jawad, Elham H. Fini, Taher M. Abu-LebdehThis study investigates the use of Bio-Binder, derived from swine manure, as an additive to improve rheological properties of bitumen extracted from recycled asphalt shingles. Test results show that adding Bio-Binder to Recycled Asphalt Shingles (RAS) leads to reduced viscosity, modulus shear complex G*, relaxation time RT and segregation. Results illustrated that the derived Bio-Binder additive can remove the negative … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 11 Mar 2017 · 7,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Strategy to Optimize Lean Supply Chain Design by Meta-HeuristicThi Hong Dang Nguyen, Thien My DaoThis paper aims at presenting one novel quantitative strategy of optimizing the design of Lean supply chain using Meta-Heuristics. While classifying Lean Manufacturing tools in two categories, namely Functional and Tier Lean tools, we propose a new framework to design the Lean supply chain by implementing the former into a 5-echelon Fat supply chain. As the following step, we investigate … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2017 · 7,948 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOdds Exponential Log Logistic Distribution: Properties and EstimationRosaiah Kanaparthi, Gadde Srinivasa Rao, Kruthiventi Kalyani, Devireddy Charana Udaya SivakumarWe propose a distribution called Odds Exponential Log Logistic Distribution (OELLD), which is an odds family of distribution. Its hazard rate is an increasing and decreasing function based on the value of the parameter. Explicit expressions for the ordinary moments, L-moments, quantile, generating functions, Bonferroni Curve, Lorenz Curve, Gini's index and order statistics are derived. The parameters of the proposed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2017 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimal Subsurface Appraisal: A Key Link to the Success of Development Projects-Few ExamplesVirendra Singh, Ivan Yemez, Elena Izaguirre, Alvaro RaceroDuring exploration and production phases, the life of a hydrocarbon field can be distinguished by five main stages: Exploration, appraisal, development, production and abandonment. Of particular interest is the appraisal stage, where billions of dollars are spent across the oil and gas industry on data gathering activities with a view to reducing subsurface uncertainties towards optimizing reservoir development and management. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 13 Jan 2017 · 8,516 accessesView PDFCite
