Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetention Pond Sediment Accumulation Prediction using Monte Carlo SimulationSupiah Shamsudin, Abd Rashid Mohd Darom, Irma Norazurah Mohamad, Azmi Ab RahmanProblem statement: A study in Malaysia had been carried out to predict the sediment accumulation in urban detention ponds. Suspended sediment is pollutant of primary concern to the river that results in adverse environmental effect. Detention pond becomes a practical approach to this problem. Suspended sediment that settled in stormwater detention pond, can bring effect to the detention pond functions. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2012 · 7,528 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Evaluation of Wireless Sensor Network Channel in Agricultural ApplicationNaseer Sabri, S. A. Aljunid, R. B. Ahmad et al.Problem statement: In this study, the behavior of small scale fading channel due to a moving sink node of a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) or moving of surrounding objects is presented. Approach: Specifically, this research introduces the effects of multipath and scattering on the transmitted signal due to mobile sink node within forest or closed field filled of reflectors and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 24 Nov 2011 · 7,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating some Reliability Analysis Methodologies in Seismic DesignA. El Ghoulbzouri, A. Khamlichi, F. Lopez Almansa et al.Problem statement: Accounting for uncertainties that were present in geometric and material data of reinforced concrete buildings was performed in this study within the context of performance based seismic engineering design. Approach: Reliability of the expected performance state is assessed by using various methodologies based on finite element nonlinear static pushover analysis and specialized reliability software package. Reliability approaches that … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,843 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeta Heuristic Algorithms for Vehicle Routing Problem with Stochastic DemandsGeetha Shanmugam, Poonthalir Ganesan, Dr. P.T. VanathiProblem statement: The shipment of goods from manufacturer to the consumer is a focal point of distribution logistics. In reality, the demand of consumers is not known a priori. This kind of distribution is dealt by Stochastic Vehicle Routing Problem (SVRP) which is a NP-hard problem. In this proposed work, VRP with stochastic demand is considered. A probability distribution is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 8,021 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWhat Else do Epileptic Data RevealRamalingam ShanmugamProblem statement: Aggregating and analyzing data of all patients using statistical methodologies as often done in macro sense would be not useful when physician’s professional interest was only to provide the best medical care to the patient. For this purpose, individual data of the involved patient should be analyzed and modeled in a micro sense for the physician to notice … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2011 · 7,302 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSome Test Statistics for Testing the Binomial Parameter: Empirical Power ComparisonFlorence George, B.M. Golam KibriaProblem statement: The Binomial distribution is one of the most useful probability distributions in the filed of quality control, physical and medical sceinces. Many questions of interest to the health worker related to make inference about the unknown population proportion, parameter of binomial distribution. This study considers the problem of hypotheses testing of the parameter of a binomial distribution. Approach: … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApproximation of Aggregate Losses Using SimulationMohamed Amraja Mohamed, Ahmad Mahir Razali, Noriszura IsmailProblem statement: The modeling of aggregate losses is one of the main objectives in actuarial theory and practice, especially in the process of making important business decisions regarding various aspects of insurance contracts. The aggregate losses over a fixed time period is often modeled by mixing the distributions of loss frequency and severity, whereby the distribution resulted from this approach … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,666 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSecurity Guard Robot Detecting Human Using Gaussian Distribution Histogram MethodMbaitiga ZacharieProblem statement: The purpose of any robotic is to perform tasks that a human would prefer not to do or hopefully do it with precision in order to avoid mistakes or when a human is out of duty due to fatigue or health reasons. The research into human detection into images has paid the way be aware of what is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 5 Aug 2010 · 7,056 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
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDecomposition of Marginal Homogeneity into Logit and Mean Ridits Equality for Square Contingency TablesKiyotaka Iki, Kouji Tahata, Sadao TomizawaProblem statement: For square contingency tables with ordered categories, if the Marginal Homogeneity (MH) model holds, then the probability that X selected at random from the row marginal distribution is less than Y selected independently at random from the column marginal distribution equals the probability that X is greater than Y. However, the converse does not hold. We are interested … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,297 accessesView PDFCite
