Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleβ-Spline Estimation in a Semiparametric Regression Model with Nonlinear Time Series ErrorsJinhong You, Gemai Chen, Xian ZhouWe study the estimation problems for a partly linear regression model with a nonlinear time series error structure. The model consists of a parametric linear component for the regression coefficients and a nonparametric nonlinear component. The random errors are unobservable and modeled by a first-order Markov bilinear process. Based on a B-spline series approximation of the nonlinear component function, we … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,734 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRobust Estimations as a Remedy for Multicollinearity Caused by Multiple High Leverage PointsArezoo Bagheri, Habshah MidiProblem statement: The Least Squares (LS) method has been the most popular technique for estimating the parameters of a model due to its optimal properties and ease of computation. LS estimated regression may be seriously disturbed by multicollinearity which is a near linear dependency between two or more explanatory variables in the regression models. Even though LS estimates are unbiased … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,247 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleQuantile Regression Estimation Using Non-Crossing ConstraintsIlaria Lucrezia AmeriseIn this article we are concerned with a collection of multiple linear regressions that enable the researcher to gain an impression of the entire conditional distribution of a response variable given a set of explanatory variables. More specifically, we investigate the advantage of using a new method to estimate a bunch of non-crossing quantile regressions hyperplanes. The main tool is … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 15 May 2018 · 7,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOdds 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 accessEvery word in the titleContribution of Remote Sensing in the Estimation of the Populations Living in Areas with Risk of Gully Erosion in Kinshasa (D.R. Congo). Case of Selembao TownshipKayembe wa Kayembe Matthieu, Ngoy Ndombe Alain, Makanzu Imwangana Fils et al.This paper proposes a methodology combining very high spatial resolution satellite image, GIS and field surveys to estimate the number of people living in areas at (high) risk of landslides or gully erosion in Selembao (Kinshasa). It also gives their socio-economic characteristics. Results show that 185,000 out of the 314,699 inhabitants estimated in Selembao (58.3% of the population) live in … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 6 Jun 2016 · 8,612 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleESTIMATION OF WEIBULL PARAMETERS USING A RANDOMIZED NEIGHBORHOOD SEARCH FOR THE SEVERITY OF FIRE ACCIDENTSSoontorn Boonta, Anchalee Sattayatham, Pairote SattayathamIn this study, we applied Randomized Neighborhood Search (RNS) to estimate the Weibull parameters to determine the severity of fire accidents; the data were provided by the Thai Reinsurance Public Co., Ltd. We compared this technique with other frequently-used techniques: the Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE), the Method of Moments (MOM), the Least Squares Method (LSM) and the weighted least squares … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2013 · 6,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePurification of Natural Gas with Impurities using Membrane Processes: Parameter EstimationN. W. Jusoh, K. K. Lau, A. M. ShariffProblem statement: Membrane processes have received a significantly high attention on natural gas separation processes since this technology provides higher operating and cost advantages as compared to other technologies. One of the major problems related to natural gas separation using membrane is the existence of feed impurities including CO2, heavy hydrocarbon and water. Approach: Hence, mathematical model that is able … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 22 May 2012 · 8,426 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNeural Networks Based Time-Delay Estimation using DCT CoefficientsSamir J. Shaltaf, Ahmad A. MohammadThis study dealt with the problem of estimating constant time delay embedded into a received signal that was noisy, delayed and damped image of a known reference signal. The received signal was filtered, normalized with respect to the peak value it achieved and then transformed by the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) into DCT coefficients. Those DCT coefficients that were most … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,479 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Priori Estimation of the Resolvent on Approximation of Born-OppenheimerSabria Bouheroum-Mentri, Amina BenbernouIn this study, we estimate the resolvent of the two bodies Shrodinger operator perturbed by a potential of Coulombian type on Hilbert space when h tends to zero. Using the Feschbach method, we first distorted it and then reduced it to a diagonal matrix. We considered a case where two energy levels cross in the classical forbidden region. Under the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,725 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInduction Motor Flux Estimation using Nonlinear Sliding ObserversHakiki Khalid, Mazari Benyounès, Djaber Sid’AhmedA nonlinear sliding flux was proposed for an induction motor. Its dynamic observation errors converge asymptotically to zero, independently from the inputs. The aim of this work was to study the robustness of this observer with respect to the variation of the rotor resistance known to be a crucial parameter for the control. The dynamic performance of this sliding observer … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,794 accessesView PDFCite
