Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectronegativity, Interaction Parameter and Electronicpolarizability for Bisumth Borate Metal GlassesEl-Sayed Moustafa, Farid ElkhatebProblem statement: In the present work, we applied the concept of the optical electronegativity to predict basic properties of some ternary oxide glasses. Recently Optical electronegativity of many binary oxide glasses has been evaluated on the basis of two different parameters, the linear refractive index and the energy gap, which have demonstrated remarkable correlation. Approach: In this study, the refractive … …Physics International, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 1 Dec 2011 · 7,312 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 abstractDynamical Model for Determining Human Susceptibility to Dengue FeverSurapol Naowarat, Thanon Korkiatsakul, I. Ming TangProblem statement: Mathematical models are a useful tool for understanding and describing the transmission of diseases such as dengue fever, one of the most prevalently emerging diseases common to tropical and subtropical areas throughout South East Asia. By taking into account human susceptibility to disease, the dynamics of a dengue disease model is proposed. Approach: Using standard methods for analyzing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 28 Sep 2011 · 7,735 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Soil Plant Analysis Development Chlorophyll Meter for Two Growth Stages to Assess Grain Yield of Malaysian Rice (Oryza sativa)Asa Gholizadeh, Mohd Amin Mohd Soom, Anuar Abd. Rahim, Aimrun WayayokProblem Statement: Proper yield management in rice influences grain quality and quantity. Nitrogen site-specific management is also effective on final product of crops because excessive nitrogen application at any growth stage can reduce yield and increase disease incidence. In contrast, suboptimal nitrogen levels at discrete growth stages may substantially reduce plant productivity. The nitrogen status at specific growth stages may … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2011 · 11,820 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Algorithm Based Proportional Integral Controller Design for Induction MotorMohanasundaram Kuppusamy, Rajasekar NatarajanProblem statement: This study has expounded the application of evolutionary computation method namely Genetic Algorithm (GA) for estimation of feedback controller parameters for induction motor. GA offers certain advantages such as simple computational steps, derivative free optimization, reduced number of iterations and assured near global optima. The development of the method is well documented and computed and measured results are … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 9 Mar 2011 · 6,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTime Series Forecasting by using Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average: Subset, Multiplicative or Additive ModelSuhartonoProblem statement: Most of Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA) models that used for forecasting seasonal time series are multiplicative SARIMA models. These models assume that there is a significant parameter as a result of multiplication between nonseasonal and seasonal parameters without testing by certain statistical test. Moreover, most popular statistical software such as MINITAB and SPSS only has facility … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2011 · 18,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Hydraulic Parameters of Iranshahr Alluvial AquiferJafar Rahnama-Rad, Mohammad Yaghoub Bavali, Reza DerakhshaniProblem statement: The Iranshahr aquifer consists of an unconfined layer. We simulated groundwater flow of the Iranshahr aquifer in a conceptual model. This model is a suitable tool for management of groundwater system and would also be effective when applied in other countries. Approach: In this study, we constructed the conceptual model of Iranshahr aquifer, which is important and applicable … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,539 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpline Estimator in Multi-Response Nonparametric Regression Model with Unequal Correlation of ErrorsBudi Lestari, I. Nyoman Budiantara, Sony Sunaryo, Muhammad MashuriProblem statement: In many applications two or more dependent variables are observed at several values of the independent variables, such as at time points. The statistical problems are to estimate functions that model their dependences on the independent variables and to investigate relationships between these functions. Nonparametric regression model, especially smoothing splines provide powerful tools to model the functions which … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,168 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of the Bayesian and Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Weibull DistributionAl Omari Mohammed Ahmed, Hadeel Salim Al-Kutubi, Noor Akma IbrahimProblem statement: The Weibull distribution has been widely used especially in the modeling of lifetime event data. It provides a statistical model which has a wide variety of applications in many areas, and the main advantage is its ability in the context of lifetime event, to provide reasonably accurate failure analysis and failure forecasts especially with extremely small samples. The … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 10,955 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModel for Analyzing Counts with Over-,Equi-and Under-Dispersion in Actuarial StatisticsNaushad Mamode Khan, Maleika Heenaye-Mamode KhanProblem statement: Actuarial science has grown much popularity in the recent years due to the growth of insurance companies. In practice, the data involved in actuarial science are mostly counts which may be over-,equi-or under-dispersed. Many probability distributions were proposed to model such data such as the mixed Poisson distributions. However, the estimation methodologies based on such mixed Poisson distributions … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,602 accessesView PDFCite
