Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation Between Dispersion and Mean Toassess Healthcare Servicee FficiencyRamalingam ShanmugamMotivation for this research work started while helping a hospital administrator to assess whether patient oriented activity duration, X≥0 is reflecting the service’s efficiency? Higher value of the sample mean duration, X implies lesser productivity in the hospital and more healthcare cost. Likewise, larger value of sample dispersion, sx2 in the service durations is an indicator of lesser reliability and … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Aug 2012 · 6,876 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Chaotic Block Cipher for Real-Time MultimediaN. Radha, M. VenkatesuluProblem statement: The widespread use of image, audio and video data makes media content protection increasingly necessary and important. We propose a naive approach which treats the multimedia signal to be protected as a text and use proposed encryption design to encrypt the whole data stream. Upon reception, the entire cipher text data stream would be decrypted and playback can … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 27 Apr 2012 · 7,308 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupport Vector Machine Based Red Palm Weevil (Rynchophorus Ferrugineous, Olivier) Recognition SystemGhulam Mubashar Hassan, Saleh Mufleh Al-SaqerProblem statement: Red palm weevil (Rynchophorus Ferrugineous, Oliveir) is an insect which threatens the existence of palm trees. The proposed research is to develop a RPW identification system using Support Vector Machine method. The problem is to extract image features from an image and using SVM to find out the existence of RPW in an image. Approach: Images are snapped … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 24 Jan 2012 · 7,737 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparison of the Bayesian and Other Methods for Estimation of Reliability Function for Burr-XII DistributionSafaa Ali Nasir, Nashaat Jaisam Al-AnberProblem statement: The Burr-XII distribution has been widely used especially in the modeling of life time event data. It provides a statistical model which has a wide variety of application in many areas and the main advantage is its ability in the context of life time event among other distributions. The conventional maximum likelihood method is the usual way to … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2011 · 7,856 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPecan Weevil Recognition Using Support Vector Machine MethodGhulam Mubashar Hassan, Saleh Mufleh Al-SaqerProblem statement: The Pecan weevil was considered as the most dangerous pest of Pecan fruits. The aim of this research is to evaluate Support Vector Machine method (SVM) for identifying Pecan Weevil among other insects. Eventually, this recognition system will serve in a wireless imaging network for monitoring Pecan Weevils. Approach: SVM has been evaluated using two different kernel functions … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2011 · 7,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSingle Core Hardware Module to Implement Boolean Function Classification TechniquesMohd. Marufuzzaman, Md. Mamun, Fazidah Hanim Hashim, Labonnah F. RahmanProblem statement: Boolean function classification plays an important role in the field like technology mapping for digital circuit design, function mapping for minimization and the development of universal logic modules. Approach: In this study, we present a single core hardware module to implement Boolean function classification techniques on Altera FLEX10K FPGA device for lossless data compression. The compression algorithm was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 7 Oct 2011 · 7,412 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSummarizing Relational Data Using Semi-Supervised Genetic Algorithm-Based Clustering TechniquesRayner AlfredProblem statement: In solving a classification problem in relational data mining, traditional methods, for example, the C4.5 and its variants, usually require data transformations from datasets stored in multiple tables into a single table. Unfortunately, we may loss some information when we join tables with a high degree of one-to-many association. Therefore, data transformation becomes a tedious trial-and-error work and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,588 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTwo Optimization Methods to Determine the Rate Constants of a Complex Chemical Reaction Using FORTRAN and MATLABAbdel-Latif Aboul Seoud, Lamiaa A.M. AbdallahProblem statement: For chemical reactions, the determination of the rate constants is both very difficult and a time consuming process. The aim of this research was to develop computer programs for determining the rate constants for the general form of any complex reaction at a certain temperature. The development of such program can be very helpful in the control of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 8,050 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Sixtic Lacunary Spline Solutions of Second Order Initial Value ProblemJwamer Karwan Hama FarajProblem statement: The lacunary problem, which we had investigated in this study, consider in finding the spline function of degree six S(x) of deficiency four, interpolating data given on the function value and third, forth order in the interval [0,1]. Also, on the extra initial condition was prescribed on the first derivative. Other purpose of this construction was to solve … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,766 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntervention Model for Analyzing the Impact of Terrorism to Tourism IndustryZ. Ismail, Suhartono, A. Yahaya, R. EfendiProblem statement: It is common in time series data with extreme change in its mean caused by an intervention which comes from external and/or internal factors. This extreme change in mean is known as regime change or structural change. Problems of external factor intervention such as the effect of the Arab oil embargo to consumption level of electricity in United … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,949 accessesView PDFCite
