Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDesign of Square Substrate Integrated Waveguide Cavity Resonators: Compensation of Modelling Errors by Support Vector Regression MachinesGiovanni AngiulliThe design of Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) resonators is usually a cumbersome process, especially due to the length &#34trial and error&#34 procedure involved in this task. In this study Support Vector Regression Machines (SVRMs) are employed to compensate the modeling errors associated to the design of SIW rectangular cavity resonators. To validate the proposed approach, we have compared the design … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 5 Sep 2012 · 6,695 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleToward a Hierarchical Bayesian Framework for Modelling the Effect of Regional Diversity on Household ExpenditurePudji Ismartini, Nur Iriawan, Setiawan, Brodjol Sutijo Supri UlamaProblem statement: Household expenditure analysis was highly demanding for government in order to formulate its policy. Since household data was viewed as hierarchical structure with household nested in its regional residence which varies inter region, the contextual welfare analysis was needed. This study proposed to develop a hierarchical model for estimating household expenditure in an attempt to measure the effect … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2012 · 7,309 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleModelling Political Support among Women with Political Actors in Northern StatesZaherawati Zakaria, Kamarudin Ngah, Jamaludin Mustaffa et al.Problem statement: Women in Asia are making their mark with distinct styles of leadership, but have a long way to go to reach the critical mass needed to level a political playing field that remains much easier for men to take part. Yet far from being included in the decision-making process, women find themselves under-represented in political institutions. Approach: Numerous … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 10 Feb 2012 · 7,636 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMarkov Regime Switching Modelling and Analysis of Socially Responsible Investment FundsEduardo D. Roca, Victor S.H. Wong, Gurudeo Anand TularamProblem statement: An increasing proportion of Australian superannuation funds are being placed in Socially Responsible Investments (SRI). Yet, there is no clarity in the literature as regards the risk and return characteristics of these investments and how their performance is affected by different states of the market and sector. Approach: We examine the sensitivity of Australian SRI Funds to movements … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2011 · 7,381 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleForecasting and Modelling Electricity Demand Using Anfis PredictorM. Mordjaoui, B. BoudjemaProblem statement: Load forecasting plays an important task in power system planning, operation and control. It has received an increasing attention over the years by academic researchers and practitioners. Control, security assessment, optimum planning of power production required a precise short term load forecasting. Approach: This study tries to combine neural network and fuzzy logic for next week electric load … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 14 Sep 2011 · 7,817 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMultivariate Modelling of the Canary Islands Banana Output. The Role of Farmer Income ExpectationConcepción González Concepción, María Candelaria Gil-Fariña, Celina Pestano-GabinoThe EU is the world‘s largest importer of bananas and the only major managed market in the international banana trade. Spain is the main banana producer within the European Union (EU), followed by France and Portugal. In all these countries the fruit is grown in overseas islands situated in tropical or sub-tropical areas and bananas are a pillar of the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,769 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDynamics Modelling of a Plate Vibrating in a Perfect FluidBouarroudj Nadra, Belaib LekhmissiWe deal with the interaction problem of a plate vibrating within a perfect fluid. We establish the equations describing the dynamics behaviour of the plate using the general equations of the elasto-dynamic. The fluid flow described by the equation of Euler’s low amplitude. We presented results of the existence, the unicity and the regularity of the problem verified by the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,900 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleModelling and Forecasting Volatility of Returns on the Ghana Stock Exchange Using Garch ModelsFrimpong Joseph Magnus, Oteng-Abayie Eric FosuThis paper models and forecasts volatility (conditional variance) on the Ghana Stock Exchange using a random walk (RW), GARCH(1,1), EGARCH(1,1), and TGARCH(1,1) models. The unique ‘three days a week’ Databank Stock Index (DSI) was used to study the dynamics of the Ghana stock market volatility over a 10-year period. The competing volatility models were estimated and their specification and forecast … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 7,554 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleModelling the Effect of Salinity on the Multivariate Distribution of a Water Quality IndexDaniela cocchi, Michele scagliariniSalinity is a tracer of water and nutrient flows and is employed in studies on coastal environment to establish the coastal or remote origins of pollutants and nutrients. The present article analyses the effects of salinity on the multivariate distribution of the Trophic Index TRIX. The approach taken is based on a multivariate nested model with salinity as an explicative … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 5,917 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluating Methods of Estimation and Modelling Spatial Distribution of Evapotranspiration in the Middle Heihe River Basin, ChinaChuanyan Zhao, Zhongren Nan, Guodong ChengSeven models commonly used to estimate the daily reference evapotranspiration (ET0) were evaluated in the middle Heihe River Basin of the arid northwestern part of China. The objectives of the study are to choose the appropriate model for estimating the areal distribution of ET0 and to explain the spatial-temporal distribution of the same through GIS in the study area.
