Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStudy of Modified Oral Minimal Model using n-Order Decay Rate of Plasma Insulin for the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test in Subjects with Normal, Impaired and Diabetic Glucose ToleranceAgus Kartono, Egha Sabila Putri, Ardian Arif Setiawan et al.In this present study, the modified Oral Minimal Model (OMM), with secretion of insulin from pancreas was assumed that the insulin decay rate was not always a first-orderly process in the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), had been developed to study Normal Glucose Tolerance (NGT), Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT or pre-diabetes) and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) subjects. The modified … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 25 Apr 2017 · 7,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTHE RATE FUNCTION OF S-MIXING PROCESS AND ITS APPLICATION IN EVALUATING EMPIRICAL LIKELIHOOD TESTSXing WangIn this study we show that the rate function of S-Mixing stationary process with part of the hypermixing condition is equivalent to the Kullback-Leibler distance. This finding can be used to extend the result of the optimality of empirical likelihood test in i.i.d setting to weakly depended case, so that the Asymptotic Relative Efficiency (ARE) of the empirical likelihood test … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2013 · 6,615 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNumerical Modeling of Periodic Pumping Tests in Wells Penetrating a Heterogeneous AquiferPeter A. Fokker, Joerg Renner, Francesca VergaThis study investigated how to utilize multiple frequency components of pressure data from periodic pulse tests to estimate the intra-well permeability and compressibility distribution and also the presence of heterogeneities in a real field case. Periodic well testing is a technique in which injection or production pulses of a fluid are applied to a well in a periodic fashion. One … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2013 · 7,990 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOne-Sided Multivariate Tests for High Dimensional DataSamruam ChongcharoenProblem statement: For a multivariate normal population with size smaller than dimension, n<p, the likelihood ratio tests of the null hypothesis that the mean vector was zero with a one-sided alternative were no longer valid because they involved with sample covariance matrix which was singular. Approach: The test statistics for one-sided multivariate hypotheses with n<p were proposed. Results: The simulation … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 20 Jun 2012 · 7,261 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMeasuring ICT Usage among West Coast Fishermen: Pre-Test Results from Port Dickson, Negeri SembilanHayrol Azril Mohamed Shaffril, Siti Zobidah Omar, Musa Abu Hassan et al.Problem statement: The government has admitted the effectiveness of ICT in bringing changes to the socio-economic aspects of the community. Groups such as farmers, entrepreneurs, rural community and housewives for examples have been proven by a number of past studies to profit the huge advantages offered by ICT. Nonetheless, there is inadequacy in term of study related to ICT usage … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 5 Jan 2012 · 8,687 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Novel Method for Testing Digital to Analog Converter in Static RangeK. Hariharan, S. Gouthamraj, B. Subramaniam et al.Problem statement: Linearity testing methods for DAC usually involves usage of non-linear analog components, which are indeed prone to various errors. Few other testing methodologies involve complex circuitry for measuring exactitude of DAC. Practically, it is difficult to build those as Built In Self Test (BIST) due to complexity of calculation, which demands more usage of ALU (or core of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Cost Effective and User Friendly Approach to Design Wireline Formation TestsClara Bertolini, Giuseppe Tripaldi, Elena Manassero et al.Problem statement: Wireline formation testing (also named Mini-DSTs) are gaining more and more popularity as a possible alternative to conventional well testing especially where there are major environmental and economical constraints. The increased offshore exploration activity, which often implies highly risky and huge operational costs, makes the conventional well testing less attractive in favor of other technologies that can provide … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,665 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleToxicity Testing and the Effect of Landfill Leachate in Malaysia on Behavior of Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio L., 1758; Pisces, Cyprinidae)Jaffar Y.M. Alkassasbeh, Lee Yook Heng, Salmijah SurifProblem Statement: Landfill leachate had been implicated in environmental pollution, developmental anomalies, birth defect and surface and groundwater pollution worldwide. This study has been conducted to determine the toxicity of landfill leachate from three different landfills in Malaysia on fry common carp (Cyprinus carpio L., 1758; Pisces, Cyprinidae) in combination with some physico-chemical parameters analysis. Approach: Leachates were collected from … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,020 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Conceptual Design of Module Documentation Based Testing ToolSalmi Baharom, Zarina ShukurSoftware testing plays an important role to assure the quality of software and can be highly effective if performed rigorously. Studies found that testing can benefit from formal specification as it provides precise description of expected software behavior and most importantly, it is in a form that it can be manipulated easily for automation purpose. Grey-box testing approach usually based … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,532 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBioinhbition of Diarrhogenic Gram-negative Bacteria using the Tukey-HSD TestAdenike A.O. Ogunshe, J.O. OlaomiA variety of probiotics show promise as effective therapies in the control of diarrhoea, however, diets and geographical locations affect probiotic therapy. In this pilot study, four indigenous probiotic candidates, Lactobacillus acidophilus AAOOL4, L. reuteri AAOOCH1, L. plantarum AAOO25NN and L. delbrueckii AAOOT20 were investigated for their in vitro bactericidal effects on bacterial pathogens implicated in infantile diarrhoea using the … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,211 accessesView PDFCite
